Zip on down for Rescue Rangers #2

WDWNT on August 27, 2013

Looks like me know more about the Disney Afternoons line. The second set inspired buy the show Rescue Rangers will be hitting the internet and D-Street stores on August 16th. The set will cost $29.95, it be a LE of 1500, and is designed by Maria Clapsis and Monty Maldovan. And now for the big news, it will be a three figure set (two 3″ and a Jr) containing the characters Monterey Jack, Gadget Hackwrench, and Zipper.

This is what I love to see from Disney Afternoons. Perfect! Now all we need is for Gadget to have a wrench accessory!

What do you think of this set?

Rumor of More Disney Afternoon Series 2

WDWNT on August 27, 2013

Vinylmation Kingdom is reporting a few more names on the Disney Afternoon Series 2 list. They have info from a source who says to watch out for a second combo of both Darkwing Duck and Talespin and a first combo pack of Gummi Bears.

Duck Tales and Rescue Rangers have already been announced for series two. Gummi Bears is interesting because we saw “dumpster divers” a long time ago from a Hong Kong eBay seller. These were prototypes or tests produced but never meant for public consumption. They were trashed, but apparently some made their way out of the bin.


NOTE: Before all the comments begin to stream in… these Gummi Bears pictured below ARE NOT the vinyls rumored above. These are photos of the “dumpster divers” and were produced on the original Mickey platform. We fully expect the new Gummi Bears, if proven true, to be produced on the current Mickey platform.

As far as a second Darkwing and Talespin set… what characters do you want to see?

Blathering Blatherskite!

WDWNT on June 1, 2013

Wow this has been a great week for Vinylmation and a great year for Ducktales. A little while back Campcom said it would be releasing a HD version of the classic game “Ducktales”, and now Disney Afternoons is back and the first set of series 2 is Ducktales!

I think I asked for it a long time ago, but today Disney announced that the set will include two figures- GizmoDuck and his mild manner self, Fenton Crackshell. Look at that shark fin on his head, how cool is that?

Another great announcement from Disney, and one I know a lot of people are excited about. For some people the original Disney Afternoons sets were the last time they got excited for a new Vinylmation set. According to Disney the price has raised to $19.99 and there LE was raised to 1500 (But that seems about right number of figures at the moment.) This set will come out at D-Streets and online on July 19th. And look, Maria Clapsis is the artist, which is also cool!

What do you think about this? Will this get you to stand in line?
