Oh yes, I spoke to my shopper and for those who are looking for the Donald at Disneyland big fig; it will be out at the end of this month along with the Disneyland music box.

I am waiting for holiday sales and asking for some of these items as gifts. I've only missed the plaque so far. < If nothing else we will see more of the $45 off $100 type offers I am sure.... Alsobe careful on some of the 'deals' -- one Disneyshopping .com they have the Donald Christmas Big Fig for what looks like a deal -- $99 vs. $150 original price -- however WAIT ! -- I got mine on Disneydeal.com for $49 last week -- and they had quantity 20 ! Also item on there for NBC Cuckoo Clock -- looks like great deal on Disney shopping.com @ $199 vs $299 original price -- but Disneydeals.com has them for $129 to $149 Buy it Now --- Lots of conflicting prices for the exact same merchandise -- shop smart !

Do you know what TL are almost gone? I noticed that the Barker Bird and Tiki God figures are on back order. Does that mean they might sell out soon? Thanks for the help.

Originally Posted By williamedit Recived the first shipment of F.L. merchandise today. The pewter set is gorgeous, the tin signs are great as are the Storybookland miniatures. The Mr. Toad car is unbelievable and heavy too. The one slight disappointment is the Casey Jr. train. It's very cheaply made almost entirely of plastic and, for a powered locomotive, has almost no weight to it. It is dead on in its design, a very good replica of the real thing. Is it worth $299.00? No, but I will keep it as I always wanted a Casey Jr. train. Has anyone received any of their stuff yet and if so, what are your thoughts? Bill.
