Star Wars and Disney |
Lead | ||
|
We've got a Disney thread in the Store Reports section, but this one is for news and opinions about the Disney Star Wars crossover products. To start things off, here's a brief interview at SWStarTours.net about some upcoming products. You'll find the price of new Potato Heads and figures, and when thry'll come down the pike.

I am looking forward to some of it, particularly the Muppets.

Looks like these are coming into the warehouse this week? Not sure if anyone else here ordered any. http://www.OrlandoMobileTinting.com |

Maul | #5 | ||

I ordered the Donald Duck Maul so I'm pretty stoked about that. I only wish I had room for the darn thing! |

The Big Figs are in, and available for pick up from Oct 1st-13th.
Right now, I am just getting Mickey & Donald. Might go back for Goofy. These do take up a LOT of display space, so looks like I need to move things around again. Campbell, do you have any of the other Big Figs? http://www.OrlandoMobileTinting.com |

I have two now, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to stand pat. In addition to recently picking up the Darth Maul Donald, I have the original Jedi Mickey
one. So I've got the Jedi and Sith bookended. If I ever saw some great deal, I'd probably get the Mickey X-Wing pilot. I'm very happy with the Duck
Maul one- there's a lot of detail, front to back.

Make sure you check your lights & inspect Figs. A LOT of collectors are ending up with damaged & defective Mickey's & Donald's. Disney does
not have a lot to exchange, so don't wait to open your boxes. The bases on this round are a little wavy & unstable, making it a little easy for the
Fig to tip over, and the lightsabers are not always lining up.
I went back for Minnie & Goofy, so I have all 9. Could not resist,
was fortunate to get the cast member discount.
Jedi Mickey & Donald Maul look sweet displayed together, and I paired up Darth Goofy with Mickey Anakin. Cool duels! http://www.OrlandoMobileTinting.com |

Ha, yeah, I like the way they pair up. Good thoughts about checking the lights- that was my thought too, and it was the reason I unpacked it soon after I got
the Maul. Fortunately it all works, but it was hard to insert the red blades- I scratched up the handles installing them. Couldn't be helped.

EndorExpress.net has released pictures from Disney's upcoming 2009 Mini Figures.
These are the ones you get in the blind-packages of three. I completed the first set, but they really don't give much bang for your buck. However, I will
definitely seek out the Star Tours Crewmember and Teek (from the Battle for Endor Ewok movie and the ST pre-boarding video). For the uninitiated, these are up
to 1.5 inches tall and have no articulation.

Mick just asked me if this year's Big Figs for SWW would be the same scale as the others. They will be won't they? Based on the previous years'
offerings, the price point, and all other Big Figs I'm fairly certain that they will be roughly the same as always, even if this is the final four. Has
anyone else heard different?

Series 3 of the Star Wars Disney Racers are coming soon. I
actually really like these. Some are better than others, but as a rule, I like how strange, and oddly creative, they are.

I had a request from someone up north to pick up five bags of those little Star Tours Collector Packs that they sell in Downtown Disney. If anyone with a
discount can help out, please let me know.

If you're talking about the latest series, they aren't out yet. Or rather, they had not been released as of this past Saturday. Wicket's Warehouse,
the Star Wars Weekends exclusives store, said the collector packs and the 3rd series of Disney/SW crossover figures would be out in July.

He did not specify any particular series. He just asked if I could get him five bags. These are tiny little micro-machine type figures right?

Yes, but smaller. Most are figurines about an 1-1.5" tall, some are very small ships. Each blind bag is $4.95 each and contains three miniatures.

I have quite a few extras from series 1 if he is looking. Had to build several sets, it took quite a bit of $$$

That'd be great for everyone if he could use some of Sharon's.
As for me, I'm a little Disney'd out following SWW. I don't plan to return there for the next month or two. |
