Merchandise you wish to see or want back

[OldsDr]

1) POC merchandise not releated to the movie
2) Back in the late 80s in EPCOT they had glass mugs with Mickey dressed up in traditional clothes of each country. I bought the german one. I want them all and can not even find them on ebay
3) Pocket watches. I have not been in two years. But I used to buy a pocket watch each year that was different than prev. years. the last few years I went they had the same one overe and over again
4) Metal Liscence plates, last times I was there all the liscence plates were going plastic
5) More original regular watches

6) Park/Hotel specific items that are only found in that location
7) Key Chains
8) Yard or even Half yard Beer mugs in the UK( I believe you could buy them full of beer and keep the glass)
9) The ToT Ash trays

That is all I can think of for now

To get adult clothes that I would even wear that are Disney themed I ended up buying a Disney Brother embroidery machine and the Disney cards . The cards I own: Tinkerbell, Pooh, Vintage Mickey, The Incredibles, Cars Vol. II, Classic Films, Finding Nemo, and Film Stars. Still need to buy Christmas card, Snow White card, the Disney Princess card , and Monster Inc.

You can't sell anything you make because it is licensed to you to use for yourself or gifts. I have many polos, sleeveless polos and t-shirts I have made for my self. I have even embroidered towels, kitchen towels, jackets, and robes.

The machine also comes with built in Disney designs of current Mickey and friends. My model is the 750D. They have a newer one out 780D that has more Disney built into the machine.

I also have embroidery software for my main embroidery machine and found an awesome Pirate design that I have turned into my POC themed shirts.

Not cheap but the clothes fit me well and are high quality.I even made out entire family matching shirts 2 years ago. I just wished they would come out with more cards for the newer movies. No Tiana, no Ratatoue (sp?), no Bolt, and no Up.

Our family had a Christmas tree ornament of a Monorail vehicle. It now belongs to a brother who doesn't even like Disney. Yet, he likes trains and will not part with the ornament.

For several years we have searched for a replacement monorail ornament, but have had no magic. I have found one on line where Mickey is strangely large and popping out of the top of the front section of a monorail, but the scale is all wrong.

I really just want my monorail car to put on the tree.

In addition, I could use some Minnie Mouse headbands made for an adult sized head. All the headbands are too small and seem better suited to a child or young adult. I want to wear Minnie without getting a brutal headache. I had a great headband from the early 90's but it finally broke, and I haven't found a comfy one since.

Hey, you could buy one of the monorail "hot wheels" type cars that are sold there and convert it to an ornament fairly easily. While it's not the same, it doesn't have mickey popping out of it.

Villians merchandise
Adult fairy and princess shirts
Womens polos (I can wear these to work but I can never find any I like).
101 Dalmatians merchandise. Years and years ago the Disney Store used to carry embroidered pocket Ts. I would be there every couple of weeks and almost always there would be a new Dalmatians shirt I would buy. Then the selection dwindled down to Pooh and friends and finally disappeared altogether. I really miss those shirts.

I would love to see more variety in character apparel and such. Few years back I purchased a sweatshirt that had probably 50 characters on it (it was embroidered not scree print) I still love that shift and wear it.

I had a hard time finding a monorail shirt, last weekend.
I ended up buying the only available design, the one with the Spanish spiel, in adults small, for my 8 year old nephew. I would have bought a monorail ball cap if they had one. No such thing. What's up with that? Only one design of tee shirt? No kids sizes? No hats? Disney is really missing the boat on that.

 

[UGAFan0829]

I would have to say more of a selection in the resort merchadise as well as Princess stuff for the adults.

 

[LittleMissMusical]

a better selection inadult costumes. last year for MNNSHP our family decided to dress up as peter pan and gang. i was wendy and it was imposible to find a costume! i ended up finding a dress on target.com that looked pretty close(except it stopped at my knees). same thing happened with the peter costume!!!

I would like to see the ceramic banks. They were really nice , different characters, now only plastic.
MVMCP items like a few years ago. The snowmen, reindeer, themed mugs...

Freaking Brilliant! Why have I not thought of that. (I blame sleep depravation caused by two teens and a baby or Congress). I will get the hot wheel monorail thing, add a hanger, and voila.

 

[jandel]

i want...I want....I WANT :

ANY merchandise from the classic movies, ie Sword in the Stone, Robin Hood, Jungle Book,. You can have the characters (albeit somewhat sporadic) in the parks and there isn't a single stuffed Merlin or Baloo to be found.

And from the more recent wave of classics....would it kill them to add Megara, Esmerelda and Pocohontas stuff???

And I totally agree with PPs - please, please, please more resort and park-specific items. There is no sense of buying urgency when everthing I see at every kiosk/store is available everywhere - and usually in my resort gift shop!

sniff...rant off

The die cast attraction vehicles, usually it had a Disney character riding in the vehicle like Goofy is riding in the Haunted Mansion Doom Buggy. I think they still sell the one for Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin but I liked how they had them for attractions at the different parks.

When I was growing up in the 80's, my parents always let me pick out one or two small ceramic figurines to take home. Not the big collector expensive ones, just little 3-4 inches tall, they had every character that was "new" plus the classics. I haven't been able to find any in a long time to add to my collection. I think the "newest" character I have is from the Hunchback of Notre Dame. I really wish they would bring those back!

Women's t-shirts that don't look like that have paint splatters, shiney designs, or squigly lines and stupid patterns all over them.

More Haunted Mansion merchandise.

Resort-specific merchandise. I just found out they were phasing it out, and I'm really mad about that.

More vintage-inspired merchandise. I love the old MK and Epcot logos.

Oh, and more Hercules/Megara stuff. All I've ever found is a plush Pegasus (which is adorable). But I don't need that.

I would really like some women's t-shirts that do not fit like a glove. I typically wear a medium in t-shirts from Target and the like but some of the shirts I have tried at WDW were so tight! There are some really nice retro attraction shirts at MK (Mr. Toad and it's a small world) but even an x-large was pretty snug. Maybe they are made for juniors only? The organic, "save the world" environmental t-shirts are the same.

I would also like to see more Pixar items. I think the Pixar films (except for Toy Story and Cars) get the major merchandise shaft.

 

[disneychic]

Pooh's Hunny Pots - caramel filled chocolates - yum!

YES!!! OMG, we LOVED those! We used to bring them back as souvenier gifts for our family/neighbors. My Brother still asks us to look every time we go to WDW (even though he knows they've not been sold in years).

. . .I'm sure as technology has progressed (email, digital cameras, texting), fewer and fewer people send them. . .but I miss traditional postcards. I know there are still a few out there ---and I'm not talking about the $3+ ones. . . they are nice, but not something I'm going to buy a quantity of. . . I remember (and have in my scrapbook) postcards that featured pics from many favorite MK attractions. They were fun to pick up and send. . . (yeah, I know. . .I'm talking about the 70s. . .thru maybe early 80s?)

Yes, Yes, Yes!!!!! I miss the ones they had for years. And I don't even send them, but I buy them for my photo albums as fillers, to tell a story. Please Disney, bring back the postcards for us photo album lovers, and scrapbookers, please!!!

 

[Planogirl]

Haunted mansion stuff
Maleficent things

I'd like to see the ride vehicles brought back too. I have some of them but never could collect them all.

 

[hsembrick]

I would love to see more Snow White stuff!! She is the first princess and when we went last sept I was soooo disappointed!!! All I wanted was a plush "baby" snow white, the kind that come with a blanket and they had NOTHING!! All they had as for as toys was a Barbie like doll of her and big clunky seven dwarfs that honestly looked like dog toys.
