    Perhaps maybe the emporium in MK may have something?? Seems to me with the MK emporium having been expanded that they would carry an even larger selection of items of clothing.

    Other places to try in the area for clothes (if it's something they aren't doing anymore) is maybe the Belz outlets (not sure what it's called now) or the Disney outlet at Crossroads right outside Downtown Disney offproperty?

Although Disney probably doesn't want to carry more inventory than they have to, you would think they'd have better knowledge of the optimal size distribution.

    "get your Pooh plush and pins here ! "

    that is what they have more of, not a variety of clothing....part of many of our comlaints about Main Street Shops.

    DL does a much better job overall in clothing quality - and has for a long time. Not sure why, but they must have different buyers.

    Or better knowledge of their customer base at WDW.
