The hostess dress sounds pretty cute, but I'd have to reserve judgement until I saw that one. The Haunted Mansion mirror and "here you leave today" plaques are my must-buys at full price ... and maybe the tin signs, depending on how weak I feel The rest I guess can wait until a sale, and I'll risk not getting them. Thanks for posting the info, myeticket!

It is very, very impressive (but unfortunately it also has a rather impressive price tag). ----------------------- >>My advice: wait until it gets discounted.<< Except for the Tiki shirts which lasted about 1 day last time.

But I'm not interested in owning an Omnibus, no matter how cool it is. But it's perfectly fine with me for them not to have anything I want. Means I can spend the money on other things! /cs

Originally Posted By gurgitoy2 No, they were $99 to start and only $49 during the recent sale. I know because I bought the Fantasyland signs when they were half price!

The Disneyland vintage shirts sound interesting, hopefully they look good!

Originally Posted By myeticket Yes, I noticed that about the promotion. And yes, it is very annoying. It would have come in handy for the new items! But, they always have some sort of a promotion going on anyway.. (free shipping, no tax etc.) Yeah, I missed out on the dedication plaque so I know I'm not going to miss my opportunity to get the 'here you leave today..' plaque!
Originally Posted By Liberty Belle ^^^ Me too - I missed out on the dedecation plaque and was disappointed, but given the choice I'd rather the 'Here you leave today' one anyway!

Originally Posted By SIR at X-S Tech Wow that's a great deal for the changing portraits. I wanna say they went for $6 a piece and they usually sell for several times that. They are closer in size to a postcard though, perhaps a bit smaller. Maybe about 4x6 if memory serves.
