An update to the Disney Vinylmation site has us lost. Yesterday we reported that the Park 6 series was to be released on April 1st, as seen written on the picture page for all the Park 6 figure turn arounds. Now that piece of information has been replaced with the words, “Coming Soon”. Does this mean that the date has changed? Or did Disney just not want us to know the date so early. (A whole month!) We’ll keep you appraised of the situation as it changes. |
A lot happened today on the Vinylmation front, so here is a recap.
 |
Disney officially announced an April 1st
release date for Vinylmation Series Park 6.
We had pics of the pins representing Park 6,
but today Disney released turn around pictures
and the artist’s names.
|
| We already knew Urban 6 would be released on March 18th, but today we were treated to turn around pictures of the series. We also now know all the artist’s names and narrowed down what the chaser might be. |
 |
 |
It was our lucky day! Disney also released
photos of all the figures from Jr Series 3
Good Luck / Bad Luck… including the
chasers.
|
| Disney also released some turn around pictures of the 8 figure open window Tron set. We know these are currently available at Hong Kong Disneyland, however no US release date was announced. |
 |
 |
More Cutesters Too variants? Maybe.
Disney’s official Vinylmation Blog linked
to a page with “original artwork” from the
Cutesters Too set. It including 2 variants we
have never seen… bringing the possible total
number of variants to 5.

Looks like some updates on what late Winter’s Park 6 set will look like.
Thanks to DV reader Brandon for bringing this to our attention:
Both of these have already been seen on the shelves at Disneyland Paris, but today, Disney announced a July 29 release date stateside for both Davy Crockett and Animal Kingdom Crate. They will be released at both D-Streets as well as a “limited quantity” available at the Disney Store Online. Check them out below and visit our 9″ Park 6 Explained page for more details.
This figure is designed by Maria Clapsis, is LE 800 and will set you back $44.95. Normally, I love everything Maria puts out, but this one will not be joining my collection. As a 3″, it would be welcome, but especially with so many other great 9″ and the price tag, it just doesn’t work for me. It’s a well done design, but doesn’t have that special touch 9″ need to warrant the purchase for me. But I am curious… what animal lurks in the darkness?
The King of the Wild Frontier was a favorite of mine as a kid, and I am so glad designer Casey Jones went the extra step to make Davy Crockett’s signature cap removable! Davy is LE 1000 and will retail for $44.95. As you can tell, this is an immediate pick up for me.
