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?

ZoMG: Duck Tales at DLR

WDWNT on April 14, 2011


After finally catching up on my lack of sleep the day of the Duck Tales release, I would like to share with you my experience on Friday morning.

There have not been very many limited releases lately, so I went in to this not knowing what to expect. A lot of other releases that I woke up early for and waited for hours ended up being on the shelves for months! (Like Nightmare Before Christmas, DLR Attraction Posters, etc.) I stopped by D-Street the night before to ask if they were planning on opening at 8:00 or 10:00 the next morning. The cast member told me that the store was opening at 10:00 and they would distribute wristbands at 7:00. Uh oh. Wristbands? I knew that meant that there was only a limited amount and that sleeping in wouldn’t be an option.

My mom and I headed to Downtown Disney at 5:15 am, we got there around 5:30 am and there were already 40 people in front of us. We waited for an hour and half until we were given our wristbands. They let us know that we could come back until 1:00 that afternoon and pick up our figures. This was refreshing so now we could go grab something to eat and come back and get in line. We were gone an hour and came back around 9:00 and there were 75 people in line at D-Street already with their wristbands.


Finally at 10:45 we made our way into D-Street and picked up our figures. There were many more people behind us in line and we were so grateful to be in the store buying our Duck Tales!! By 1:00 in the afternoon D-Street made the announcement that they were completely sold out and there would be no more Duck Tales on the floor for the stand-by line!!

I love release days because it gives you a chance to stand in line and chat with other fellow Vinylmation loves and make friends as well as do some trading.

Can’t wait until the next release!

Duck Tales Out of Box and on my Table!

WDWNT on April 8, 2011

Regardless of price, this set is pretty cool. here’s a first look at our Duck Tales set out of the box (Although the design on the back of the box is very cool, just like with Tail Spin)
Check out the removable top hat (the third top hat in vinylmation). I also really like that the ears on Launchpad are clear in the middle. And Scrooge’s glasses are perfect!

Check out Launchpad’s scarf. Pretty cool if you ask me.

What do you think? Did you stand in line this morning to get these?

More Disney Afternoons Confusion on Price (Better Ending)

WDWNT on April 8, 2011

Update: 4/9/11 Wow, I just looked at the price tag on a box a friend who was in line behind me bought. His box is priced at $26.95, but they only charged him $24.95. Once again I have to say thank you to D-Street for being very cool about this situation. It seems now that after I mentioned the price problem (I was the first one out of the store) that they quickly changed the price tags on the box. But, and this is the awesome part, it seems like they kept charging the $24.95 price for everyone who was in line that morning. I heard the price went back to actually being $26.95, but it seems only after the wait line had ended. Very cool Disney, very cool.

Update: Noon. We are hearing rumors that the price might be back up to $26.95, I guess they have a price gun at D-Street.

Nick and I both waited in line outside D-Street Florida today to get the Duck Tales set. We got to meet with a lot of people, including oft-commenter Claudia!, and talk some vinyl. Once inside the store we picked up our Duck Tales set and noticed something interesting.

The price tag read $24.95. I was excited, because I was expecting to pay more, until I noticed they had rung me up for $26.95. Unlike the Tail Spin problem, D-Street graciously offered to refund my money. When I went back a little later, they did mention that the price when scanned had been changed back to the $24.95. Thank you Disney for staying true to the price tag! As of this post, the Art of Disney site still has this:

I appreciate the speed and easy of this solution, but it does bring to mind, why (after a month) are these sets still being released with the wrong price tags? And why, if they were already priced, did Disney go and change the price?

DuckTales out tomorrow! Take a sneak peek today!

WDWNT on April 7, 2011

Being released tomorrow, April 8th, is the 2nd set in the Disney Afternoons Series: Duck Tales!
The set is designed by Chris Chapman and will be releases periodically through the next couple of month. But tomorrow is the release of DuckTales, and today we got a chace to see the turnarounds of both chracters!

Launchpad McQuack

The pilot of both Scrooge and Darkwing, Launchpad has been all over the Duckverse. I think the long jaw is a good design choice, although it might be a little off color, like the Mickey Nerd mouth.

Scrooge McDuck

The main character of DuckTales. Check out the top hat. That’s the third top hat accessory so far. A pretty good accessory, but we’d rather some money bags!

What do you think of this set? Will you be out there tomorrow morning with Destination Vinylmation??

Duck Tales Release Date, Woo-ooo!

WDWNT on April 2, 2011

Update: 4/2/11 The Art of Disney DLR page had this graphic and confirmed the price as $26.95. Also worth noting, the small print saying “2 sets per guest, per day”.

Update: 3/25/11 Disney Events page officially posts the April 8th release date we announced earlier in the week. Thanks to J for pointing it out. It looks like both the FL and CA D-Streets will get the Duck Tales combo pack. It is NOT listed as being released online. Set your alarm clocks and we will meet you out there before dawn. What time will you line up?

Thanks to Ryan, the newest addition to the DV team, we have a release date for the Duck Tales combo pack from the Chris Chapman designed Disney Afternoons Series.

Expect to see Launchpad and Scrooge McDuck on April 8th. The only question is where? The release date info was uncovered at the WDW Trading Event this past Friday night. One Disney cast member said it would be released at D-Street, while the other said at the Disney Store Online. A Disney Parks Blog post back on March 1st said that all future Disney Afternoon releases after Tail Spin would all be at D-Street. The Tail Spin set retailed for $26.95, so we can expect the same price here. It also looks like the Disney Afternoons cartoon series will be released one combo set at a time. What do you think about this release info? Which is your favorite Disney Afternoons set.
