News Round Up 2018

That's an interesting...ummm....color choice for the Spirit Jersey.

Kinda looks like faded black denim you would see teenagers wearing at the mall in the 1980s ... guess it sort of fits the "retro vibe" of Hocus Pocus in general, but not something I would be eager to wear

I think the wording looks cheap - they aren't embroidered on like the pricess ones - just pressed on - and the photos make it look like a cheap press-on - one that will peel off after just a couple washing.

I agree - and I know the faded black denim is sort of back (at least I see it in stores)...but not something I think is very attractive for a shirt!

I don't think it has been mentioned on here yet, there was a major kitchen fire at the Four Seasons Resort near MK on Sunday. Capa, the restaurant on the 17th level is currently closed whilst they assess the damage.

I just reserved this for early December trip.....

speaking of new merchandise that I am not a fan of the look of:

I guess the messenger bag isn't too bad, but that shirt that is supposed to look like you have an unzipped jacket on - but the top of the jacket is 3 inches below your shoulders just looks dumb to me

I guess it's never too early for Halloween shopping.

New Hocus Pocus Spirit Jerseys and more are now on shopDisney: http://blogmickey.com/2018/07/new-hocus-pocus-spirit-jersey-and-merchandise-puts-a-spell-on-disney/

So is acid wash back in? Can I dig out my old 1980s jeans??

Doh. I should probably finish reading posts before I post.

 

[unbanshee]

Well, we are less than a month away from the first Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party

Wow, you're right! I forgot how early it is this year

 

[skier_pete]

I really am tired of the trashcan style items. I guess I'm just not into decorating with trashcans.

It depends how you look at them...either they are trashcan's, or there the tables you stand around to eat your F&W treats. (Cause there aren't enough real tables...see?)

Ugh what is wrong with Binx's face? No thanks.

Hopefully, there's a good sale on the 4K version on release day. I may hold off for Black Friday.

I also find it unusual that a bunch of the items are themed with Mickey, I've never seen MM paired with Soarin' before this merchandise release. Don't get me wrong, I like that Disney is expanding merchandise choices and I like variety, but themes like this stray so far from the original that they seem to lose all association with the ride, aside from the name.

Neat .. surprised they didn't push this up to August considering how "poorly" it did in the theatres. I'll buy it so my wife can finally see it

Now we wait a whole year and half before a new Star Wars movie after getting them pretty regularly for a while.

The Soarn' Around the World t-shirt we purchased at Epcot last summer has Mickey in the center. Couldn't find the shirt on the shopping app (was on there a few weeks ago). But, here's an image from twitter.

That's their grey denim colour. I must admit I think this one is very ugly.

I have the blue "denim finish" colour WDW spirit jersey and love it!

LOL remember last year's Hocus Pocus debacle!

oh gosh yet - they probably were thinking: "Let's make something as generic as possible so no possible way we could get sued and have to pulled the merchandise"

well, maybe Robin Sparkles would claim gimmick infringment

the magicband is on ebay for $5,500 lol

Is there a certain time period when the full menus for food & wine festival are released? With only 6 weeks until it starts, I would have thought it might be out by now.
