At the World of Disney store at Disney Springs, three new caps have been released that may be of interest to Disney fans…
I Orange Bird Citrus Swirl? It makes zero sense, but I guess it doesn’t really matter as it will be a hot seller.
The hat is mesh in the back. Two other new hats are available as well…
All three hats retail for $24.99 each and should be available in multiple locations very soon.
Calling all Orange Bird fans… beginning on September 8th, you can head on over to Pin Traders at Disney Springs or Pirate’s Bazaar at the Magic Kingdom to pick up this exclusive Disney Parks Orange Bird Pop! Vinyl. Like many other Disney Parks Exclusive Pops, don’t expect to see this one sit on the shelves for too long.
Walt Disney World fans that have a special place in their heart for the happy little Orange Bird know that he returned to Adventureland at Magic Kingdom Park in 2012, and can now be found in the Sunshine Tree Terrace location. Last year, several Orange Bird-themed products were introduced at Disney Parks. WDWNT is happy to report additional items will be arriving soon.
These new home décor items will include two small kitchen towels decorated with Orange Bird graphics. An Orange Bird coffee mug, small dish, and salt and pepper shakers are also planned. These items were designed to complement the previously released bowl, orange juice pitcher and small juice glasses. Now you’ll be able to “Think Orange Thoughts” while enjoying your morning cup of coffee!
Another item will be the new, open edition retail MagicBand coming this December to select Walt Disney World Resort merchandise locations.
Once these items are released at Disney Parks, you may find select products using the free Shop Disney Parks app. This video shows you how easy it is to use the app to find favorite Disney Parks merchandise and have those items shipped directly to your home.
Meet the two newest red heads of Vinylmation. First, Julie Young. She has been a long time merchandiser with Disney Pins and according to the Disney Parks Blog is coming over to Vinylmation. She also was in one of Steven Miller’s interviews when he joined the team back 9 years ago. Congrats to Julie!
Also, Julie seems to be holding what we can only assume is a Park Starz version of the Red Head from Pirates of the Caribbean. Could this be another Park Starz 2 figure? (She doesn’t say anything about the figure in her interview.) How do you think it compares to the famous animatronic?
Thanks to Michael for taking a closer look. He spotted what looks like it maybe be a Park Starz Orange Bird in the background. What do you think?
Well Steven Miller already answered this question, with a big fat YES!
We also noticed the packaging for Park Starz 2…
At this past weekend’s Florida Project trading event, the theme was just awesome. Original ride vehicles and marvelously themed trading areas adorned the World Showplace. Disney also hid a bunch of Orange Birds all over the place. The Orange Bird was also the exclusive event Vinylmation figure that guests could trade for with Cast Members. So it’s only natural the little guy flew around the room for a photo shoot.
