My Disney Store is actually a pretty nice one, we’re a substantial size as far as Disney Stores go, but the Disney Stores are usually kind of small so mine is a one story with about four ‘rooms’.
We have A LOT of Pixar stuff. the Disney Store has what they call ‘boy stuff’ and ‘girl stuff’. The girl stuff is 99% Tinkerbell and classic Disney Princess (right now dominated by Ariel for spring) and the boy stuff is 99% Pixar. Seriously, our boy section is made up by Cars, WALL-E and Toy Story merch.
Nemo is popular right now since it’s spring, so he’s featured on a lot of our spring toys (beach balls, water guns, etc.).
We also have what we call ‘plush mountain’, which is a big fixture filled to the brim with character plush. For a while we had the Bug’s Life cast and Woody/ Buzz and Mike/ Sulley in car form but those are now on clearance and almost gone. Sometimes we have BIG Sulley plush but not at the moment.
It really depends on when you come in because we are ALWAYS getting new stuff but yes, Pixar definitely has a large presence at the Disney Store.
The UP ‘section’ isn’t very big right now but keep in mind that the movie hasn’t been released yet. Disney wants to gauge stock by how well the product sells based on how popular the movie is… so right now UP is only featured on one fixture, but I’m sure we will start carrying at least a little more merchandise once the film hits theaters.
would anybody kindly help me out with one of those “adventure books” i live in the uk, disney store usa online comes to $69!!! to ship to UK wish a stupid price to be fair.
Hog-Hug - Dang, look at all of that stuff! It’s a shmorgashboard… Thanks for posting up those photographs! The Up merchandise on display is awesome.
The Wilderness Explorer shirt is beyond adorable, and I’d bring the bag to a local Whole Foods Market in my area if I bought it. Only $2.50? That’s a bargain coming from Disney!
It comes with a magnifying glass! Why didn’t they have something this cute when I was a kid?
Concerning that spoiler: I thought that that was so obvious. Maybe it’s just me, but I figured that out ages ago…
You guys have that, too? Awesome.
I used to work at a Disney Store in my area (one which is now deceased, unfortunately), so reading all of your comments on how your Disney Store is set up brings back memories…
Bryko614 - Ha! I bet you anything that it probably was made specifically for Mr. Lasseter. I wouldn’t doubt it.
WOW! All the UP merchandise loos great! I just got back from the Disney store and looked at all the stuff they had. I actually caved and bought a reusable Up bag. It was only 2.50 and its INCREDIBLY ADORABLE:
Not the best quality, sorry! Had to use my webcam…but anyways, its TOTALLY cute and worth the price, plus I like reusable bags since I’m trying to cute down on using plastic and paper ones. A definite buy for those Up fans who don’t have a whole lot of money (like me, the art student xD)! I definitely using the bag to hold my animation supplies
I’m soo happy that my birthday just passed. now i can take my money and make a dash to the disney store to get me one of those Up shirts. im most likely going to get this one:
And it depends on your store and it’s location, but it may also be hard to get a job even if you’re 18 if you’re not out of school… because The Disney Store (mine, at least) is clamping down on hours. ):
Oooooh, I’d love to take that envirobag out for grocery shopping.
As much as I don’t want to see being caught hanging out in Toys 'R Us, I just can’t resist the plushies, so I’ll check the store out to see if they have it. If only there were Disney stores globally.
And I actually fit into it!
