Disney Vinylmation Park Starz Series 1 - Ice Gator & Horizons Robot Vinyl Figures

So every Friday for the next few weeks Disney will be unveiling new figures in its upcoming Vinylmation blind box series, Park Starz (check out the first 4 figures here). Park Starz takes classic characters from Disney Theme Parks around the world and reinterprets them as unique collectible vinyl figures. The two new figures announced today are a Robot from Horizons, a popular theme park attraction at Epcot which ran from 1983-1999, and Ice Gator, the official mascot of Disney’s Blizzard Beach water park at Walt Disney World.

Created by Disney Design Group artists Thomas Scott and Casey Jones, Park Starz Series 1 includes 11 characters and one “mystery chaser” figure. Unlike previous Vinylmation Series, each of the 12 figures in Park Starz Series 1 will be completely different. Disney Vinylmation Park Starz Series 1 will be released in mid to late October 2011.

Darkwing Duck Disney Afternoon Vinylmation 2 Pack

While The Blot has not covered the past 2 Disney Afternoon Vinylmation releases (either because I never watched the show or didn’t find out about the release until after they were sold out), this was the one set I’ve really been looking forward to...the Darkwing Duck 2 pack! Like most of you, Darkwing Duck was my favorite Disney Afternoon cartoon (right up there with DuckTails and Gummi Bears) and I’ve really enjoyed the series' rebirth in the BOOM! Studios comic books. The set includes Darkwing Duck (a.k.a. Drake Mallard) and Drake's nine-year-old adopted daughter (and sidekick) Gosalyn.

This awesome set goes on sale today, Friday, September 16th, at all D-Street Locations. The Darkwing Duck Disney Afternoon Vinylmation 2 Pack has a limited edition run size of 1,000 pieces and will retail for $26.95.
