| SPECIAL ORDER MINI BEAN BAG CHARACTERS |
| That's right!!! You may have seen the large bean bag Pain and Panic in your local Disney store, but the only way to get this duo in the mini bean bag collection is to preorder Disney's "Hercules" video tape. I've ordered mine have you? The video is due out at the beginning of February and when you pick up your video, Pain and Panic will be with it. With your purchase you not only receive your certificate to pick up your package but also a special edition Lithograph from the movie. Remember, Pain and Panic mini bean bag characters will NOT be sold in the Disney stores or Theme parks. They will be a real collectors item. |
| DISNEY BEANIES THE NEXT CRAZE? |
|
It seems so. Have you been to your local Disney store? It appears that Disney has hopped on the craze that has swept our country for the past couple of years. Now there are mobs of people flocking to Disney to grab as many of their Bean Bag Characters as they can.
It all started so discreet. That’s right, only 30 Test Stores carried the first Characters that everyone keeps referring to as PROTOTYPES. If you were lucky, and in the right place at the right time. You were able to acquire a few. If you missed out, well you probably noticed that people started to advertise on the Internet that they had "Disney Beanies". Well, rumors flew. " Ty Warner has signed a contract with Disney to make their characters into Beanie Babies." This of course was totally untrue. Let me repeat myself. THIS IS UNTRUE!!! Disney has taken upon themselves to make their characters into beanbag toys. They tested them out at only 30 select stores. Now you have to remember, if you were not one of those 30 stores, you did not know they existed. It was a hush deal. It appears that Disney wanted to see how well they would sell. We were fortunate to have two test stores in the Boston area. All of those lovable characters were gone within a week!!! Things got a little bolder when the 30 stores became 70 stores. Would the craze keep up. Well, my local Disney store sold out of Eeyore with in hours. All of a sudden it was the same phrases that I have become accustomed to with Beanies. · Sorry, sold out!! · If you only got here a few minutes earlier. · No, the shipment did not come in. · Disney doesn’t tell us when we will get them. They just ship them.
Only time will tell if they become the next Craze |
