Sad and bland is what comes to my mind. After visiting Tokyo Disney many times, I feel spoilt with the excellent quality and variety of items available, that just blow your mind. These 60th items. I am lost for words. But I am sure I will have to buy some of it come September when we visit. Maybe it might grow on me, like mould. I hope by then, some new items are out.

Sure, the plushes wearing the promo outfits are neat, but beyond that it's just a bunch of standard stationery with a new logo printed on the side Like I said, I think I'm just not the target market for any of what they're selling. It seems like all of the stuff I did like was discontinued in the mid-00's

It's tough to take that and make it look less cutesy or less girly. I'm sure Disney knows who buys the most merchandise, but it just seems like they're ignoring a large portion of their potential buyers I think it would be fun if they did some items with a harlequin or argyle pattern. It still uses diamond shapes (though not the gems themselves) but would allow for a different variety of products that might appeal to a different audience

The D with 60 reminds me of an expensive knock off of D23 which was an expensive knock off of Disneyana Fan Club (NFFC). Why couldn’t they used the diamond more?
