Australia Sports Beans

I ordered a couple of sets directly from Australia Disney. I just received mine Monday. I know that people are still waiting for their sets from Australia. Be patient they will be coming.

I also traded directly with someone living in Australia for a set. Much to my surprise I have found that there are two versions of Windsurfing Pooh. Here are the differences

Disney Store direct order : Year 2000 embroidered, New style pooh, different mouth, sail is brighter. Grey strip is dull and red stripe is not as bright and shiney. The sail board seems to made out of a little bit different material.

Australia Version: Australia lettering not embroidered. Pooh is not same pooh. He is not as fat, Mouth not as big, and is lighter in color. Sail is lighter in color (very slightly), gray stripe is shiny and red stripe is brighter. Name Hang Tag is different in lettering. Second hang tag is bigger and doesn't have DN12500

Australia in store to front, order/mail pooh to back.
