Is it midnight? I just have to figure out the time difference so I can buy them as soon as possible (sad, I know).

Originally Posted By Offenbach The Haunted Mansion Lenticular pins are fabulous! The Madame Leota Crystal Ball pin uses a sequence of actual film frames of her face from the attraction. She starts out in "resting" position with relaxed face, eyes and mouth closed. She then opens her eyes and you can see her mouth begin to form words. It's creepy because she looks so real. The round framed ghost pin alternates between two different faces of the hideous ghosts that you see popping up in the attic scene. The effect is really cool. The best one, though, is the square framed King Ghost (he has the Hatbox Ghost's face but wears a crown.) This is one of the spooky photographs in the attraction hanging on the wall in the corridor of doors. When you tilt this pin, the ghost slowly fades away to black, but his 2 eyes linger on for a split second after his face disappears. It's completely FANTASTICAL! The cardboard insert inside the box is the evil wallpaper pattern from the corridor. This is one of the most fun sets of HM pins I've ever seen. (It was on display at the last NFFC show).

Originally Posted By irishfan Well the stuffs all available. I bought the plaque and Haunted Mansion pins. Decided to hold off on the other stuff, may just wait around and see if they get discounted(I've been burned few times)...either way, purchased the two things I really wanted.

Originally Posted By irishfan I was on the fence regarding the omnibus, but it's not available, probably best(for my credit card).
Originally Posted By disneynut771 Thanks for the heads-up that this merchandise was coming out. Just ordered my entrance plaque - it will look perfect over the doorway into my Disney room!

Originally Posted By gurgitoy2 Well, there are two 10% discount codes that you are able to use (which I did). I also noticed that there are a few items that were not announced, like the official flags, and the Disneyland snowglobe. It's all very nice stuff, but I was only able to order the entrance plaque at this point. I'll get more next week probablyl.
Originally Posted By gurgitoy2 Oh, I just got an email from DisneyShopping that looks to be a pretty good deal for those of you who are planning on buying stuff this weekend. You can get 10% off, as well as free shipping on orders over $75. That's a great deal, since you can use both at the same time! So, check your email.

Originally Posted By williamedit SIR, I called about the House and they do have them in their warehouse but have not yet inventoried it into their computer systems. The same thing happened with the Omnibus and it was "unavailable" until just about an hour ago. Bill.
Originally Posted By iDisney72 I ordered the entrance plaque and the snowglobe. Heads up the snowglobe has a limited edition of 500, so chances are it won't be around forever. I was planning on purchasing the Dumbo big fig, but I LOVE the snowglobe and had to jump at it. It was a nice surprise since it wasn't on the link posted earlier. Also, for anyone who has a Disney Visa, there is a 15% coupon code available using SummerFun06 (ONLY for Disney Visa cardholders though!). I'm glad they had free shipping, too! I wonder how long it will take before the plaque disappears. My vote is not long!
