Do they still sell antenna toppers in the parks?

[OregonMinnie]

I hope so!

 

[A Small World]

Yes they do

 

[Gisele]

do they have antenna toppers of Tinkerbell? Tia

 

[DizMe]

I have to buy toppers, too. Mine keep getting stolen!!!!

I just got home yesterday from the Happiest Place On Earth, and can confirm that they do indeed still sell antenna toppers.
Gisele, I did not notice any Tinker Bell ones, but I did not look in Fantasyland.

My mom has a Tink topper we bought a couple years ago. I have the standard Minnie one. Used to have a Haunted Mansion, but like a PP's, it got stolen. Grrrr.

I have to buy a new one as well.... Mine got stolen too. Even stole my Disneyland license plate cover

 

[OregonMinnie]

To those of you who had them stolen I actually don't put them on our cars because I am afraid of that. I made some shadow boxes with fun backgrounds to put them in, and they hang on the Disney wall with everything else.

I also love the mini mouse head key chains. Those I have in the animal prints, and they hang from hooks on the bottom of the shadow boxes. I figure its a fairly inexpensive thing for me to collect, and they don't take up much room

We haven't had ours stolen, yet, and it's coming up to 5 years and two cars later. My SIL has had hers two years and hasn't been stolen either. But I do know a few people who have. The only difference to ours is that ours is all black, so it looks part of the antenna/car.

Now THAT is low!!!!

I've had antenna balls that wore out and never were touched, and those that seem to attract thieves. For whatever reason, the Mickeys with sparkly ears seem to be appealing to thieves. My first antenna ball was a sparkly gold Mickey for the 50th, and it never even occurred to me that it might get stolen. It was gone within a week. I had the California Sun with ears and sunglasses that wasn't stolen, but it wasn't that apparent that it was a Mickey. The ears were sort of hidden by the sun rays. I just lost my sparkly glass slipper though. I bought DH a pirate one about 5 years ago and he super glued it to his antenna. I thought he might end up with no antenna, but both antenna and ball are still intact.

Our Nemo did fine until 9 days before we drove down last year, and DH drove under (through) a low hanging tree and it ate my Nemo I spent 20 minutes looking for it with no luck, there were autumn leaves all over the ground and it was windy, so it was just GONE. I really wanted to take a picture before I replaced it LOL. It had three tough years of service, no tail and was almost white. And got eaten by a tree.

If anyone is thinking of the Secret Agent Perry topper it is NOT good in the wind. Like our antenna on the hood was laying flat back past the passenger side window. The Cheshire Cat is awesome. Glad we bought two different ones

I just wish I could put them on my car without modifying them to fit my antenna.

My Dad has Lightning McQueen on his car right now...he had Goofy.

 

[wdwmoose]

I wish my car had an antenna. I love the antenna balls!

 

[OregonMinnie]

I don't even put them on my car As I mentioned, they are kept in a shadow box on the wall. They are just too cute, and I don't want mine stolen when they are ten dollars each.

I want to see this! Can you post a picture? I've never bought the the either for the same reason as PP but if I put them in a shadow box....

 

[CheshireGato]

I've also fallen victim to the antenna ball thieves! My Nemo lasted about 6 months before he disappeared. But now I guess I have an excuse to go back, I seem to lose my car in parking lots more often than I should!

I also buy them to put on pencils in my classroom, incase anyone was looking for an alternative way to use them.

Oh...I will see of DH can help me do this tomorrow. I am so not good at posting pictures. In the meantime I can describe it! So, I bought a couple 8x10 shadow boxes with a white picture frame. Then I got some Disney patterned scrapbook paper for the background...one is the red paper with white polka dots like Minnie's dress, and the other is black with Mickeys hands, yellow and red stars, and then some white curly lines. Then I just put the toppers inside them and I did put a glue dot (temporary) on each one, to keep them in place. Then I just put the frame back together and mounted it on the wall. I love being able to see all of them whenever I want It was relatively inexpensive, and didnt take much time to do.

I will see what I can do about posting a picture.

 

[Meriweather]

I was so sad.....no new ones for me to buy this trip (at least ones that interested me).
I always buy them.....have over 400!

I haven't had one stolen off my car since they first came out.....many years ago.

DH builds me stands for them and they are all over my family room.

When I sold my last car I was actually given $5 over my asking price for the antenna topper to stay with the car. It was over 6 years old (the topper... well, the car, too), so $5 is a pretty nice deal. Never had one stolen.
