So Tasty!?????

WDWNT on June 13, 2012

Today there were a lot of secrets in the Events page on vinylmation.com. One more tidbit we found is this:
The only thing we actually know will be that the set? figure? will be at Disney Stores on June 4th and will cost $11.95 each.

What could this be? We’ve had a lot of treat type vinylmation, Smore’s, Chocolate Mickey, ect. Could this be a Greatest Hits collection of the best food vinyl? (Sorta like Weird Al’s best food album)
Could it be a reference to another Kidada? She always seems to like the yummy theme.
How about the Romantic Treats set from Japan? Those seem “yummy” and the “romantic” part never seemed to translate well for us.

Or maybe something completely new!

What are your ideas?

Peter Pan’s expensive flight into NYC

WDWNT on March 26, 2012

The Playwright was in NYC today and found Kidada’s Peter Pan on the shelves. He did note, however, that the price is regular at the store but is cheaper at the online store. (Almost half price!)

Pinocchio Kidada 9″/Jr. makes a Sweet Combo

WDWNT on January 18, 2012

Update: 03/20/12 @Kidada4Disney says release has been delayed to a date TBD

Update: 02/12/12 Rumored March 19th release date for 9″/Jr Pinocchio and Jiminy.


Update: 11/5/11 When we asked Kidada4Disney why Jiminy doesn’t get candy. She responded: “Because he is the voice of reason.” Wow, this combo makes more sense than we thought.

After the release of the Peter Pan Kidada, we finally get a chance to see the concept art for the Kidada that was teased at D23 back in August. This piece features Pinocchio on the 9″ and Jiminy Cricket appears to be on a Jr (thanks VMKingdom). According to vinylmation.com this piece will be available in early 2012. The price of the last set was $74.95 and it was a LE of 1500, but it was with a 3″ not a Jr. You can still get them at the disneystore.com so I wonder is the production run number will come down so there’s more demand. The first 9″ Kidada sold out instantly with a run of 500.

It looks like Jiminy is on a figure with no candy (poor guy, Tinker Bell got a candy bar) and it looks like he might come with a hat! Coolness….

I guess a Jr makes more sense size-wise, which I’ve always said I wish they’d pay attention too. So yey!

What do you think of this piece? Too sweet? Does it make your teeth ache?

Sweet New Pinocchio Kidada

WDWNT on January 12, 2012

Surprise! The Disney Store Online today released the 9″/Jr Kidada we have been waiting for since last year’s D23.

An LE 500, this set comes with a colorful 9″ featuring Pinocchio having fun at Pleasure Island, a Junior Jiminy Cricket and a pin. It retails for $74.95 and is available online as well as the North Michigan Avenue Disney Store in Chicago, Times Square Disney Store in Manhattan and the Walt Disney Studio Store in Burbank.

The back of the 9″ is delicious with donkey Pinocchio inside Monstro’s mouth.

The Junior Jiminy has a great facial expression as he is watching Pinocchio. The pin reads “Official Conscience, 18KT”. A nice touch.

The box, as with all Kidada’s, is simply brilliant. A colorful design with quotes and such that ads as much to the figure as the design itself.

The back of the box reinvents the way 9″s SHOULD be packaged! A window in the back gives collector’s a look at the whole design. And the way it’s done, with the curtain, is fantastic. I have never purchased a Kidada yet, but this one I hit “add to cart” as soon as it loaded onto the screen. One of the best overall designs I have ever seen on a 9″ Vinylmation, toss in the Jr, pin and packaging… and this is one of the instant standouts of 2012.

It is LE 1500 and retails for $74.95. And with the SHIPTODAY code, this qualifies for free shipping! It is not predicted to sell out too soon, so we will keep an eye on this online exclusive to see what happens. Did you pick one up?

The Kidada 9/3 combo featuring Peter Pan and Tinkerbell did not release online on Sunday 10/30 as expected. But both Kidada and the Disney Store tweeted out responses. At about 2pm EST @Kidada4Disney tweeted this: “yooooo! the release date got pushed vinyl seekers. 10/31 midnight.

Dig In on 10/30: Kidada 9″ Ice Cream Sundae on the way!

WDWNT on October 11, 2011

Update: 10/23/11 Kidada announced that there will also be a separately sold t-shirt that comes out the day after the vinylmation. Here’s a look at it. The shirt will have a LE of 1500 just like the vinyl.
It’s official! The new Kidada 9/3 combo featuring Peter Pan and Tinkerbell will be released exclusively online at the DisneyStore.com on October 30. This combo is an LE 1,500, so a good deal more of these than the first one to go around. It will retail for $74.95. If you remember, the original leaked images of this figure were found on the UK Disney Store Online website. But this release seems like a US Disney Store Online release according to the link on the official Disney Vinylmation blog. No word at this time if part of the 1,500 figures will be available to the UK.

The 9″ is an Ice Cream Sundae design with the 3″ being Tink on a partially unwrapped candy bar.
The back of the ear says “Never Grow Up.”
On the back, there is also a quote from the movie.
As with the first Kidada, this one comes in a brilliantly designed box. It looks like a candy shop and has “nutrition info” on the side panel.
