2004 Christmas ornaments?

[WDW Fun]

My favorite souvenir is a dated Christmas ornament. Since I've never been to WDW this early in the year, I'm wondering if anyone has seen 2004 ornaments yet?
Thanks!

I saw them last month when I was there, do not recall what they were though. I sent one of the boxes that look like books, the Fab 5 one, to my ornament exhange person on the Community Board.

Yes, the dated merchandise for the next year frequently comes out in November of the previous year. As a matter of fact, in mid December and later, you are hard pressed to find dated merchandise for the current year.

I bought the 2004 dated ornament during Mousefest in early December. I've already packed it up for the year or else I would take a picture and put it online.

I'll check ebay to see if someone has it there and post the link in an edit.

This is not the ornament, but the logo is about the same, but on a white background.

I had a hard time finding a 2003 tree ball at the beginning of October. They already had 2004 out. I ended up getting a 2003 at the Christmas Store in DD.

We started the tradition of getting dated tree balls on our first trip in 1994. Now we have one for almost every year since plus some extras I picked up along the way. Our tree is almost all Disney now!

These weren't dated, but I found a box of Mickey's Christmas Carol ornaments in the 60% off at K-mart yesterday - $7.00 for 10 ornaments - Mickey as Bob Cratchit, Scrooge McDuck as Ebenezer Scrooge, Goofy as Jacob Marley's Ghost and others as the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present & Future. They will look great on the Mickey wreath I made!
