Actually, that makes four. She's got the pink sparkly one she bought while at WDW, the Herbie one from ebay (which actually hasn't arrived yet), and then Woody and Buzz from last night.

As an update, this series will be available in the parks AND in Disney Stores starting January 7. I only like Phil in this series so I don't know how many chances I'll take on the blind boxes.

Still waiting on the release date for the Villains.
Ok I'll bite, call me stupid but which one is Phil. These things are really weird.

Phil is the second from the left, bottom row. But I still don't know who's to the right of Phil (or who's right above that one with the red kerchief). NaCler? Anyone?

Remember, if you don't have the most toys you can't win. :D

Wow, Peter Pan looks...so bad. Phil, Mushu and Dodger are the only ones that look good to me.

Aha! That's who those remaining two are - Mushu and Dodger.

Btw, don't they kind of remind you of the Pook-a-looz Disney put out a year ago? - similarly weird vibe, especially Pinocchio.

I will admit that some of the Pook-a-looz look cute. I know the Queen of Hearts makes me laugh every time and the Mad Hatter looked adorable.

Hey NaCler, not to be the enabler or anything, but did you see that the Disney store is having a big sale on vinylmations right now? :wink:
I told my mom... she bought the whole box of 24. So, she now has two full sets of the series and the chaser. Her reasoning was that it was almost half off! She's addicted!

MsSwann/Sleepy/momeja - Remember, these things are all on a mold of Mickey, so it's tough to make "human" faces look good on them. I think they look a little funky myself, that's why I'll only try and get Phil.

I checked our Disney store today ~ they were not offering any sort of sale here :( I absolutely detest our local piece of doo-doo Disney store :evil:

You probably hate that AP's get 20% off everything during the holiday season at Disneyland (which apparently starts in october)

Nah, I'm pleased for anyone who can save some money. I was a bit disappointed to find that the AP discount at WDW was only 10% unless you had the premium pass, in which case you could save 20%. One of the CM's at the AK allowed me to use a 20% coupon that WDW had printed on some of your receipts and my Disney Visa discount which was super nice! But none of the other stores allowed that double discount. The AK CM made the point that the 20% was a Disney coupon, and the 10% off is a Chase discount, two separate companies, but no one else thought that was the case :( Oh well, still saved a little money while spending a lot! :shock:

They might have the same system (not sure since I have the premium because my family likes disney tees for various holidays and whatnot), but what I hate about it is that it triggers people to go out and buy up the stuff and sell it on ebay for a slight profit.

It's been going on for a while. I heard they extended it to January or something like that.
