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.
Updated 2/14/13 We learned some news from the NYC Toy Fair. Mystery Minis will be released on February 28, retail for $5.95 and be sold in cases of 24. Pre-Order link http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=FU3141AA#.UR0eCR11-Sp
These are adorable. Today we learned that in March 2013, Funko will release a blind box series of Disney Pop! Vinyls. Just take a look…
They are smaller than the open window Pop! Vinyls… about 2-3 inches tall. There will be eight characters, each with three poses that will be seeded at various odds. Here is a look at the odds chart.
No price point yet. Not something I will try to complete, but I sure will pick up a few of these. I’d assume you will be able to find these at Disney Stores and online.

Ep. 105 Pirates of the Caribbean Helmsman This week we record at the Animal Kingdom Lodge with special guest Scuba Owl. He is an avid listener and Vinylmation writer. We talk about all things vinyl and the future of the hobby. In a twist, Scuba Owl interviews us to give you the chance to learn more about us. We also deliver all the latest news and the current release calendar. |
We can expect the 5th installment of Funko’s line of Disney Pop! vinyl figures in early 2013. The lineup was revealed late last year as follows:

Ep. 108 Argyle This week we talk about the upcoming Vinylmation High School series. We also discuss Funko Disney Pop! and other Disney vinyl collectibles. We tell you how you can get a Mobil Trading Box tee shirt. And of course have the up to date release and events calendar. |
Over at funkofunatic.com’s forums we noticed a poster named Capt Hook who had the above picture on several of his posts. It looks like this is the full set of Series 5 (including a 3rd Monsters University figure). They also think these will be out by May 28th.
Which piece do you like the most? Brave looks great. And you can’t look at these without talking about the Rocketeer! What do you think?
In addition to a few Disney Vinylmation releases, this year’s San Diego Comic Con will also see a ton of exclusive Disney licensed Funko Pop! vinyls for purchase. I enjoy the fun nature of the Pop! line and have collected all three sets so far released… along with a few of the event variants. This year’s SDCC lineup has some can’t miss and unique choices. Baltar over at Vinylmation Kingdom is to blame for showing me these and the resulting flow of money out of my wallet.
Over at the Disney Store they are having their twice upon a year sale. Today they announced an additional 25% off selected items. Above are the vinylmation I found for the additional savings.
To get the extra discount put one of the items in your shopping cart. Then type in promo code: SALE25.
Also check out other items on sale, like several of the Funko Pop Vinyl Series.
Funko Disney Pop! Vinyl Series 3
Where: Disney Stores and Online
Price: $12.50
The Disney Store surprised us Thursday with the appearance of Pop! Vinyl Series 3 online. Coming only 4 months after Series 2, this set gives a strong character selection and seems to step it up a little bit on the designs. With seemingly more hats, accessories and such and maybe even a little more detail overall. Funko also likes sticking in multiple characters from the same movie in each series. This one includes 2 from Alice, The Little Mermaid and The Incredibles.
 |
Alien Toy Story Amazing! Honestly, I was looking at my Disney collection 3 days ago and said “I need more Toy Story Alien stuff.” He’s my 2nd favorite Disney character. |
 |
Ariel The Little Mermaid Perfectly designed. Except for Hook, my favorite design of this set. |
 |
Cheshire Cat Alice in Wonderland All the Vinylmation now this… plenty of Cheshire Cats to add to your collection now. Love the huge smile and tail. |
 |
Donald Duck
Like the classic look of the design. |
 |
Edna Mode The Incredibles Not complaining, but the Funko designers really enjoy The Incredibles characters. Great choice to put Edna in here. |
 |
Elastigirl The Incredibles Perfect to put next to the Mr. |
 |
Captain Hook Peter Pan Wow, perfect all around. The hat is brilliant. The hare and mustache look great. He has the hook of course. The added touch of the sword. And the design is great right down to the boots. |
 |
Mad Hatter Alice in Wonderland I think Funko stepped it up this series. Mad Hatters is perfectly over-sized and he even has a cup of tea. |
 |
Winnie the Pooh The face looks very simple, yet amazing. And not only is he holding a honey pot… but check out the other hand. It has honey on it! |
 |
Ursula The Little Mermaid The evil smile and the nicely done tentacles make this one of my favorites as well. I like how the designers varied up the arm positions to give each figure more character. |
