PHOTO REPORT: Magic Kingdom 10/31/17 (MARVEL Invasion, New Princess & Tinker Bell Merchandise, Halloween Party, Club 33, ETC.)

Our latest photo report brings us to the Magic Kingdom for one last look at the Halloween season before Christmas settles in next week.

Welcome to the Magic Kingdom

 width=

The last Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Part is on November 1st, and then it’s full speed to the Christmas season at the park.

 width=

A section of the Emporium is still behind tarps.

 width=

Items in the Vera Bradley Alice in Wonderland collection are buy one, get one 50% off at Uptown Jewelers.

 width=

 width=

The Little Mermaid collection is also available here.

 width=

A smaller version of The Dress Shop has opened towards Casey’s Corner. Many of the dresses, purses, and more from the Disney Springs shop can be found here now.

 width=

For some reason, this limited release shirt from ShopDisney is being sold in the parks concurrently. The location makes sense as this space was the House of Magic many years ago. Hopefully, more limited release shirts like this get released at the parks as well. Sadly, the matching MagicBand is online only.

 width=

 width=

The more confusing part is putting the shirt in a window that’s currently boarded up and no one can see…

 width=

 width=

 width=

Even though a few parties remain, any guest at the Magic Kingdom can now buy select items from the event.

 width=

 width=

As I said last year, I don’t agree with this. At least wait for the last party to end or send it to the outlets. It takes away one of the parks of the very expensive party ticket.

The Club That’s Made Not for You and Me

 width=

As we reported over the weekend, work has begun on what will likely be the Club 33 locations for the Magic Kingdom, the remainder of the old Adventureland Veranda.

 width=

The path into Adventureland is quite narrow right now due to the work.

 width=

 width=

 width=

Some are speculating that this work is actually for a permanent Moana meet and greet, but it seems way too extensive for something so minor.

 width=

Giant sections of awning that have been there since the 70’s have been removed. This wouldn’t be necessary for a meet and greet and could have been kept.

 width=

 width=

 width=

 width=

With a little tree clearing, the patio would offer some unique fireworks views for Club 33 guests.

This and That

 width=

All of the trees between Be Our Guest Restaurant and the village had to be removed due to hurricane damage.

 width=

In fairness, it doesn’t look terrible since all of the walls the trees covered are well-themed.

 width=

We’re still hoping they plant some new trees, at least to cover this speaker tower.

 width=

Work continues on the outdoor covered seating area at Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe. Should open very soon.

 width=

Pecos Bill’s has added an menu with pictures… it’s a window cling.

 width=

Splash Mountain is still closed for refurbishment.

 width=

Some new holiday plush for sale. Goofy’s sweater features bulbs that actually light up.

 width=

You can get the blown-glass Monorail ornament personalized at Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe.

 width=

For some reason, they have a Haunted Mansion merchandise cart out in front of the store selling accessories. I suppose this is to capitalize on Halloween Party guests.

Princess Apparel 

 width=

A number of new Princess items were released recently, including this Snow White line.

 width=

$36.99

 width=

$39.99

 width=

$36.99

 width=

$39.99

 width=

 width=

Sir Mickey’s has the new Little Mermaid line as well.

 width=

The collection also includes this hoodie, $49.99.

 width=

Jasmine top, $36.99

 width=

Aurora top, $36.99

 width=

Belle long sleeve top, $44.99

 width=

 width=

There are also 4 new Tinker Bell shirts. They range in price from $36.99-39.99.

 width=

 width=

 width=

 width=

A large section of Sir Mickey’s is now selling items from Olaf’s Frozen Adventure.

 width=

 width=

 width=

 width=

This pillow is exclusive to the parks.

 width=

It retails for $27.99.

New Characters to Join Disney Infinity 2.0 Lineup

After soliciting fan input over the past year, Disney Interactive has announced the addition of the top two requested characters to the upcoming Disney Infinity 2.0 lineup of Merida, Maleficient, the Marvel Superheroes and others: Tinker Bell and Stitch!

 

TinkStitch_ToyBox_3

Stitch, The lovable “experiment 626″ from the popular Lilo & Stitch films, comes to the Disney Infinity Toy Box 2.0 along with his trusty cosmic blaster and the ability to super jump to galactic new heights.

 

TinkStitch_ToyBox_4

One of Disney’s most iconic characters, Tinker Bell also enters the world of Disney Infinity with her magical healing Pixie Dust and the ability to glide to the stratosphere for fast-flying action.

Players will be able to create all-new adventures featuring the entire collection of characters from across the Disney Infinity universe, along with hundreds of Disney and Marvel-themed items, locations, props and vehicles.

To start your adventure with Stitch and Tinker Bell, pick up Disney Infinity: Marvel Super Heroes (2.0 Edition) when it hits stores this fall.

PHOTOS & VIDEO: Tinker Bell Moves to Town Square Theater at the Magic Kingdom

Photo & Video Sharing by SmugMug

A few weeks ago, Tinker Bell’s Nook in the former Adventureland Veranda restaurant at the Magic Kingdom was closed and Tinker Bell has now flown on over to Town Square Theater on Main Street U.S.A.. Tinker Bell’s new home replaces the Princess meet and greet area in Town Square Theater which was shuttered in the Summer of 2013 when Princess Fairytale Hall opened in New Fantasyland.

The journey begins with a cast member initiating a magical Pixie Dust effect, shrinking you down to the size of a pixie…

It’s nothing groundbreaking, but it doesn’t appear to be a permanent home for Tinker Bell either. If there are plans to move the meet and greet again at some future time, it is unclear where or when that would be,

Rumors indicate that the meet and greet was moved so that the Adventureland Veranda could once again become a restaurant (since the Magic Kingdom constantly has table service restaurants that are completely booked for reservations at busy dinner times). Only time will tell if this rumor comes to fruition.

Periwinkle joining Tinker Bell at Disneyland

From Shawn Slater of Disney Parks Blog:

In the newest Disney Fairies movie “Secret of the Wings,” coming to Blu-ray and DVD October 23, Tinker Bell journeys into the mysterious world of the Winter Woods, where curiosity and adventure lead her to an amazing discovery and reveal a magical secret that could change her world forever. In the Winter Woods, Tinker Bell meets Periwinkle, a frost fairy who turns out to be Tink’s sister, born of the same baby’s laugh.

Soon, you’ll be able to meet Periwinkle, too, as we bring a bit of the Winter Woods to Tinker Bell’s Magical Nook at Magic Kingdom Park and Pixie Hollow at Disneyland park. These areas will receive a sparkling layer of snow and ice, creating the perfect environment to greet Periwinkle and make her feel at home. Even Tinker Bell will be dressed for the occasion, wearing her warm, wintry ensemble from the film.

Look for Periwinkle to join her sister at Disneyland and Magic Kingdom parks, beginning in mid-September.

Fairies Flying Back to the Magic Kingdom July 28th

Rumors have been persistent that a new tree backdrop was being built in the Adventureland Veranda at the Magic Kingdom since the Princesses moved out, looks like those rumors are true. From Jennifer Fickley-Baker on the Disney Parks Blog:

I have an update today for all of you Disney Fairies fans.

Disney Fairies Return to Magic Kingdom Park July 28

Tinker Bell and the rest of the Disney Fairies will return to Magic Kingdom Park for meet-and-greets beginning July 28. The Pixie Hollow gang will be stationed at the Adventureland Veranda in the Adventureland area of the park.

Until that time, the fairies will continue greeting families at Epcot.

Tip: For the most updated information on meet-and-greet locations for any Disney character, pick up a Times Guide at any Disney theme park.
