Favorite Toy you bought YOURSELF at WDW

[disneygal58]

I still have the Tarot cards that I bought at The Magic Shop on Main Street in 1972!

I have enough kids that I usually don't get the toys for myself but for some odd reason when we were the in Feb I got myself a Pillow Pet Tigger (I had to get DS Pluto because he didn;t get to come with and I just "needed " Tigger " so I guess he is my favorite

My favorite has been the stuffed Stitch I bought myself. I went back and forth, trying to justify spending $25 on a "silly" stuffed animal... But I'm so glad I finally caved. I love that guy. He's soooo soft, and just the right level of squishiness, and just feels perfect when I hug him. DS rolls his eyes at me, but that's okay. So do a lot of people, lol.

I have that same Stitch! I sleep with him all the time. He is the perfect size. I am definitely going to get another stuffed animal in November. They are my favorite.

I love the balls that are a little smaller than a tennis ball. You bounce them and they light up and make a boing noise. They are super fun!

Well, it's a bit of a grown up toy, but I really do love drinking out of my disney coffee mugs in the morning.

I usually buy one good-sized plush every year I go. I've gotten Stitch, Cheshire Cat, Eeyore, Marie, and then Fuzzball from Captain EO last year (Disneyland). Because I never get a locker, these usually get carried with me for the day. I got some pretty weird stares when carrying my Fuzzball. Although most CMs kept commenting that they were glad they were back in stock so they could buy one.

I have a Halloween set of 3 small plush. Mickey is dressed as Goofy, Goofy as Donald Duck and Donald Duck as Mickey. They were from the Disney store, but still my favorite.

My first weakness is helium balloons. I have to get one as soon as possible when I arrive, so I have it in the room all week. One time, I actually bought six at once, just because I wanted the feeling of a bouquet of Mickey balloons!

My second weakness is Pluto plush. It has gotten so bad that I have started taking one from home with me, so I won't be tempted to buy another one. I love the pook-a-looz Pluto (which I have in the large and small size) and the plush Pluto travel pillow. I also got one of the first pillow pet Plutos, back when they put feet on the corners of the pillow (the newer ones are just the pillow with a Pluto head attached).

I have also been known to buy Disney Lego sets. I bought some of the individual small sets, like Cinderella's Castle - and I wish they did larger sets like that.

My favorite is one that probably technically does not count - except I'm counting it! When we went to WDW back in 2006 I saw the cutest toy in the window of the Japanese department store in Epcot. Its called a Flip Flap and its a plastic potted plant that when its exposed to light the leaves of the plant bounce up and down "happily".

Blue Flip Flap Video on Youtube (I didn't take it)

My friend and I sat outside the store watching an entire window display of them bounce away but we were so tired and exhausted and had an ADR on the other side of Epcot we had to go to that I didn't go back inside the store to buy one. I'd already checked out when I spotted it and the line inside was huge. Needless to say I had a torrid affair with Ebay once I got home until I got one. Its still Flapping away on my computer desk all these years later. I love the little guy. I'm hoping to get another one when we go to Epcot this year.

I don't even know what it is called, but on DD's first trip when she was 2, as we were waiting for Fantasmic I tried to convince her that she wanted a light up toy that the holder looked like a straight candy cane and it had a dome with a little scene inside with even a little Mickey shaped snowman, and when you pushed a button it spun and made it snow inside (it was a December trip). She completely rejected it for a Minnie with a spinning light up skirt. So... I bought it for myself! I still love that thing.

 

[tinkermama117]

I am a sucker for anything that lights up. I make DH buy me at least one light up object every trip. Now that we have DD, he has to buy 2 because she is as obsessed as I am.

I also bought the die cast cars from each attraction. I have one from the Pooh ride,Kali, Primevial Whirl and Splash Mountain.

In the China Pavillion, there was a small cart with things on it. Low and behold, out of the corner of my eye, I spotted a stuffed animal that I could not live without. (The fact that I had a few adult beverages in me sealed the deal.)

Rat, from the comic strip Pearls Before Swine, is my toy that I bought. It is such a funny strip and they did not have the alligators (Zeebah Neighbah) so I got Rat, who, quite frankly, is closer to my personality sometimes than anything else....

Love it. It sits on my desk at work.

 

[Jupiter&Wolfe]

I limit myself to one stuffed animal per trip. My first trip in '07 I didn't get a stuffed animal because I talked myself out if it thinking it was silly and I would forget about it as soon as I got home. Well I regretted that decision! All I wanted was a Disney plush to hold and remember Disney by when I got back home.

So now I have a Donald Duck and a Pluto plush from my last two trips. Pluto is soooo soft! If I am able to go in October I'm hoping to snag a werewolf Mickey! I also did the Potato Head Parts thing which was a blast and every few weeks I switch up my display of Disney potato heads.

I always consider buying the toy monorail but always manage to talk myself out of it...someday I'll cave! I want it so badly!

I've also purchased the plush Mickey Mouse hands, and at home I'm currently in the process of collecting all the toys from the Toy Story Collection! Right now I only have Woody though.

Fuzzball! I was just coming here to say my plush Fuzzball and Hooter are my favorite toys from the parks. I sleep with them every night- they even go with me when I travel anywhere. I'm a huge MJ fan, so I love having huggable reminders of him, plus they're both just adorable in their own right. Now if only they had also re-released an Idy and Ody plush like the one they had available in the 80s...

My mickey mouse bottle opener ... which looks something like this, below left (but mine is black)! Not exactly a toy but it is fun to use. I haven't seen this particular style in the parks in quite a while, though. OH, and my mickey princess wine stopper, love that one too. I sound like an alcoholic here, but these are the "toys" I brought home from Disney that get the most use!

Pal Mickey!! DW and I love to take him with use on vacations. We even have a few suits too. And my Goofy costume I wear every year for Halloween


Here is a link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ibuut7C5BDI to watch what DW & I looked like at MNSSHP 2007

 

[fairestoneofall]

my favorite is our monorail. i get as much of a kick out of it as my kids do.

my next would be my TOT Goofy plush. he was my reward for riding since that ride completely freaks me out. but we accidently left him behind on our last trip and my sister couldn't find a replacement in November.

Do they have those at Epcot? I don't recall seeing them there, I would love a Hooter plush!!

We just got back a few weeks ago and I just had to have Duffy! Yes! I bought him for me!
