Disneyland 70th speculations and news

[LKing]

There was a large Christmas/Holiday merchandise drop today. At the same time, they were restocking a lot of the 70th merchandise.

Did you happen to notice if there are MINNIE SANTA plushie ears...you know, the ones that attach to the headband? I bought the Mickies last year but was thinking I would get Minnie's to mix and match.

TIA as always.

So far only gingerbread Mickey and snowman Mickey. They still have the Halloween options for sale, so maybe more will be released next week.

As they should since it is Halloween week. One of my biggest gripes with retail in general, not just at Disneyland, is finding things during the period when you most likely need/want it.

I remember going to Disneyland in December one year and could not find ANYTHING with the current year, everything was the next year already. Annoying.

Yep, gingerbread is big this year...Baublebar, LF, HU. I went retro with red/white for my extra Christmas outfits so am hoping for some Minnie Santa's when I get there. If not, I'll just stick with the Mickeys. Thanks for letting me know!

So holiday time ends on January 7th. Do we think the Town Square characters will be back in 70th attire on the 8th?

I would guess yes. That will be the first test of how much of the 70th they are actually continuing post holiday "pause."

Well I will be there in my 70th finery that day so will let you know.

They were back in their 70th attire on Nov 1.

They have restocked the stores with quite a bit of 70th merchandise - some which has been gone since May. The Key to Disneyland has a new set of pins with gold trim and a shimmering blue center. They also have a D pin with a mini Key to Disneyland on it.

We will be there also and hoping they will be in their 70th!

First time I’ve heard them announce PTN is temporarily delayed. Waiting right now for updates (should have been 8:30 pm start).

 

[LKing]

What time did it start? I wonder if one of the floats wasn't fully charged.

What time did it start? I wonder if one of the floats wasn't fully charged.

Approximately 15 mins after scheduled start time (so started around 8:45 pm). Interesting; didn’t know the floats were electric and needed charging!

I was just so disappointed this year when the day after holiday time they weren’t sporting their 100th attire.

Are you referring to 2023?

I’m mixing up my years! It would have been January 2024, the day after holiday time was over.

What were they wearing? Christmas or were they in their Classic attire?

They went back to classic attire.
