Shopping in the theme parks, your favorite?

[SL6827]

What are your favorite gift shops in each of the four parks? Which ones have the most unique items to you? Places you can get "only there" items?

My favorite theme park gift shops in no particular order-

MK-Emporium, Merchant of Venus/Star Traders, Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe, Momento Mori
Epcot-Mouse Gear, Mexico indoor market, China's House of Good Fortune, France Souvenirs shop, UK Tea Shop and Japan Mitsokushi
DHS- The five and dime, the dark room, Legends of Hollywood, TOT gift shop
AK- The dino shop, Windtraders, Island Mercantile

Not sure if they have super unique items and what you can get only there since it varies so much but I've found lots of fun stuff at many of these shops.

I actually really like Mickey's Star Traders in MK, they carry a lot of merch similar to what you see in the trendier shops at Disney Springs and not so much in the parks.

At Epcot I'm actually not nearly as fond of Mitsukoshi as a lot of people are because nothing in it is especially unique tbqh, if you live in a larger city you can find 99% of that stuff in your local Chinatown/Little Tokyo/Koreatown neighborhood and for cheaper. I only really go in there to look at kimono and do pick a pearl (sadly it's not available at the moment). I much prefer the shops in Morocco but so much of that pavilion has been gutted since the Disney takeover, a lot of it is gone. The shop in Italy with the masks is always fun to browse.

I love the Expedition Everest shop at AK just because I'm in love with all the cute yeti merch they have now.

HS shopping is a nightmare. Samey stuff in most of the shops and hours long waits for anything unique in Galaxy's Edge. Ugh.

I don't have a specific favorite store, but I used to love to browse the shops at whatever resort we were staying at, or visiting, for resort-specific items. They don't seem to have as much of that now.

The Emporium is our favorite. The Screen Door on the Boardwalk is also one we like. Used to like The World of Disney but not since they remodeled it a few years ago. The place seems has a factory warehouse feel to it now.

Our favorites are:
MK - Uptown Jewelers Momento Mori and Arribas Bros.
HS - Dok Ondars, Tower of Terror gift shop, Legends of Hollywood and Once Upon a Time
Epcot - Mitsukoshi and the Art of Disney
AK - Serka Zong bazaar! Love Expedition Everest merch and a must have for us is a little shop around the corner from Yak and Yeti(yak and yeti gift shop?) the tag on the shirt says yak and yeti and they have the absolutely coolest most unique t shirts. My latest purchase is a shirt with a rabbit and a dragon and it says fearless. My hubby loved it so much for me that he told me to buy 2 so i have a backup. We always find something there that no one else has.
