Favorite Downtown Disney shop?

Just wondering what everyone's favorite shop is at Downtown Disney. For me, it's the Lego Imagination Center. I just loved Lego as a kid, and to find a whole store devoted just to Legos ... it's almost overwhelming.

I also like the Days of Christmas store and the Team Athletic stores. Both seem to have stuff that you can't find anywhere else. My wife is really into scrapbooking and could spend hours there. I'm into pin collecting, but I didn't really care for that store the last time I was there. I thought it left a lot to be desired.

Thoughts?

I would have to say that mine is the World of Disney. (Or just the place with all the kitchen stuff) It's HUGE!

I would say the Christmas store and the World of Disney. I would have thrown in the Home store had they not replaced it with the Goofy Candy store. Another "smart" move by Disney.

Team Disney... can't get enough of Mickey golfballs and Goofy hockey jerseys!

World of Disney is my first, but I also like the LEGO Imagination Center and The Art of Disney.

Exactly! That's my favorite part of the whole store. How can you not want Mickey head shaped ice?

I've always loved Christmas and the holiday season, so the Christmas store is right up my alley. I also used to play with legos all the time, so the lego store is a good one for me as well. Also, to be a bit different, I love Cirque du Soleil, so the Cirque store is really nice for getting stuff a little cheaper then on the official cirque site.

Oh yeah, forgot about that store. I love that one too. The items are pretty cool, but not sure what I would do them. CMs get 20% off that store.

I'm seriously considering moving back down there and possibly becoming a CM, just to get some of the perks that I keep hearing about. even though they're not much, it's still a bit better than paying it in full...

as far as art, while I like The Art Of Disney, I prefer Hoypoloi. thay have some really nice stuff there, which means it costs quite a bit.

I got to say the art of disney without a doubt but there is also a cool shop in the west side where there is a lot of movie stuff that I love to go to.

A tie between Art of Disney and World of Disney - could spend hours in either!

I love the World of Disney! I also am very fond of the Art of Disney as well. Just wish I could afford some of the great things they have to offer. I put aise some spending money for my trip this October. I getting ready to build an office in my basement and I would like some nice stuff to put on the walls.
