To celebrate his Birthday Japan Disney store has released a special Donald for the occasion. He is sporting a band with the date of his Birthday. He cost 1200 yen
Thanks to all who reported the news on this new guy! ________________________________ May 30, 2000 Hope you all had a nice weekend! ________________________________ Today the UK released Summer Fun Pooh, Tennis Donald and
Pluto
We have been told that Summer Fun Pooh is not UK Exclusive but it appears that he has been released in limited numbers. We also have not heard if Pluto or Donald will be exclusive or not. Thanks to the Big Bean and Baloo for the pictures ________________________________ TDL Furry Pooh Japan news - There isn't any Mbbp news for today yet. But I wanted to share a Pooh that Yuki from Japan has been telling me about. She tells me that they have three sizes and he is TDL Exclusive. They do have beans in them. The one pictured is about 8" in size (same a Mbbp). His tag is a bit different and he cost about $21. in USA currency... so I would not think he was a Mbbp but he might be a great addition to your Pooh Collections.
________________________________ May 29, 2000 Japan news Old Style Big Five More Mini Pin Plush released in Japan
On May 25th, I announced this new Mickey and Minnie Plush pins (pictured below) and today we see the addition of Goofy, Donald and Pluto (pictured above). This makes the new set Old Style Big Five complete.
Also new released is Golden Sorcerer Mickey. A new TDL-mini pin which was reported on last week. KC was nice enough to send us this picture of him and it is quite a bit better than the picture I showed last week so I thought I would share it.
Thanks KC for all the great pictures and information!!! _________ Also coming to Japan is a set called the American Oldies _________ Yuki tells me "I heard that there is new Pooh & Friends, they are in the ________________________________
USA news - POOH NITE SHIRT New Mbbp showed up in Disneyland with MOUSEKETOYS tags at cost of $7. This Pooh is dressed in blue nigh shirt and blue sleeping hat. On the shirt is his name POOH. Thanks to Anna for the report. She also added "I believe that he is DL and probably WDW exclusive. I think that because on his tush tag is printed only DISNEYLAND WALT DISNEY WORLD. (is different then the tush tags of beanbags from Disney store)"
Thanks to Anna for the information and picture! ________________________________ May 27, 2000 USA news - July Birthstone Minnie
Thanks to Candi From Tag Keepers for the great picture!! ________________________________ French Globetrotting Mickey & Minnie Next set due out for USA Catalog Mickey and Minnie Globetrotting bean bag set. There has been rumors of other sets to come. But nothing is confirmed. There was 10 sets listed on Becky's Board but I had originally heard we were only going to get six sets. So I won't post it yet as I really think we only have two more sets coming. I will update you when I find out more. ________________________________ May 26, 2000 On Wednesday I reported that Australia was going to allow people to order the whole sport set via a website. When this news was first brought forth by a friend in Australia and my website we did not know the exact start date. We are now hearing June 1st by various reports. All I can say is to watch this site or the official website www.sportspooh.bbp@Disney.com.au I will post more as I get the information. _____________________ May 25, 2000 New Additions to the Sleeping set TDL These are LBBP These items are really nice. The fabric is soft and fuzzy, kind of like Terry Cloth and they do have beans in them! Then after that set they released Mickey and Donald for Christmas Now Toyko Disneyland has just added Piglet, Daisy, Goofy, and Pluto Original set of Mbbp Sleeping items.
May 22, 2000 More Sound Beans arrive in UK Today we see the addition of Eeyore and Tigger to the sound collection. The USA has only gotten Eeyore so far... wonder if we will get any of the others? Notice the extra tag on the Sound Bean Bags. Eeyore is the same as USA released bean bag "Nice day probably rain" and "Hello its me Eeyore" Tigger says "Hello I’m Tigger" and now the difficult bit in his sort of giggle laugh Tigger says "Whoohoooooh Hoo TTFN tat tar for now" _____________________ Disneyland Delivears Phone Alert As on May 21, 2000 you could call Disneyland Delivears and order Graduation Mickey, Minnie and Roo. You can only order 2 of each.
Also still available is 45th Anniversary Set. They are still limiting to one set per person. If you order more than $50. you can use your Magic Kingdom Card for 10% off which helps a bit to offset the shipping cost which was 12.95 for a $70 order. I thought that a bit higher than in the past but I don't know for sure. They told me they are shipping UPS this time. _____________________ June Birthstone Minnie is arriving at local Disney Stores in the USA so be on the lookout for her. May 21th, 2000 Grid Iron Mickey released in Australia on May 20th is the same as our USA Football Mickey.
_______________________________________ May 20th, 2000 Australia Releases Australia just saw the release of Grid Iron Mickey. In March I reported this schedule for Australian Releases. I will let you know if any of it changes and will post pictures of newbies as soon as I receive them!
_______________________________________ May 19th, 2000 Summer Fun Pooh / Watermelon Pooh
will be out on the 30th May in the UK. From what I hear he is not exclusive to the UK but we are not sure what other countries will be getting him. _______________________________________ Father Day Tigger
Due for release on the 13th June in the UK. Looks real similar to Card Pooh released for Valentines Day. _______________________________________ Tennis Mickey and Minnie
This pair are to be released in the UK on the 6th June. As you can tell they are different than our USA Versions. Baloo tells me that Donald and Pluto that goes with this set is adorable and quite comical. Donald has his angry eyes again and is sporting a very tatty racket and blue head band. Pluto has the tennis ball in his mouth and is wearing a cap turned backwards. ____________ Thanks to Claudia for the pictures and information. Claudia has just launched her new site. She sells UK Disney Bean Bags and you might want to stop by and check it out. _______________________________________ Today was the release of Japan Lucky Cat Poohs and Summer Trio Kimono Set
Thanks Yuki for the pictures!!! It looks as if the Lucky Cat Pooh came bean-less. From what I understand they are even nicer in person but lacking of bean. No one knew this for the advertising and everything about them did not mention this. So they will be similar to the Animal or Pineapple set. I know I still want mine that I have coming in but I would be curious to hear from the readers on your opinion on this. So tell me what you think at the Collector's Alert Forum
Keychain Pooh
_______________________________________ May 18th, 2000 Graduation Mickey from Disneyland
