Aww, that's sad you have to get rid of most of your stuff... Your parents wont store your things for you while you are at college?

Aww, that's sad you have to get rid of most of your stuff... Your parents wont store your things for you while you are at college?
Yeah I find that rather surprising as well.
If we had our own place we could store it for you, but over boarder transfer would probably make it also not worth it.
Haha, yeah, if these do get to the UK store as well I think my bank account will be complaining a bit about it too once I'm done :lol:
And a Scar plushie! Wheee!
Well, that new mug is 8£ on the website.
Which is about 9-10€.
At the Disneystore Antwerp, that same mug is 13€.
3€ difference is a lot :p
So I'll probably be saving up my money to make a huge order from the UK site.
Then probably just like last time, even with the 10£ postage, it'll be cheaper then getting everything in Antwerp.
Aw thanks guys, My mom will store my stuff, its just once I get back from college I'll be moving into an apartment.. I'm gonna keep the stuff that I can, but I'm gonna give away some old stuff like storybooks, playsets and maybe a plush or two. Once I figure out what I won't be holding on to I'll let you know. I just have so much stuff XD
Oh, and this is a direct quote from a guy who works at a US Disney store.. (thanks for the tumblr link HK!:D)
:cheese:Quote:
Im sure we’ll get some t shirts as well as some home items. This is only the introduction into the lion king. It hasnt hit full force yet.
Saw that last night. I feel like I'm stalking him :lol: So excited.
My mum recently paid a visit to the Disney Store and said the girl who worked there said something similar too. She said by the time TLK is released in October, there'll be much more merchandise making their way into the stores. Yay! Exactly what I was hoping for! :D
SS, that's too bad you'll have to give some of your TLK stuff away, but if you need any help finding a home for them, I will be willing to help you out with that. :)
This is such exciting news... :D Sounds like there will be more new merchandise then there was back in 2003 for the IMAX and DVD release.
I went to the Birmingham Disneystore today, but they didn't have the new mug. Or any of the new large plushies :(
They did have those new Simba and Nala beanies, but I didn't buy any of them since I already have the two previous ones xP There's also the new beanie set with Timon, Pumbaa, Zazu and Simba, but it costs £20 and isn't quite nice enough for me to be spending that kind of money on three characters that I'm not that interested in having plushie versions of anyway... xD
I found this sheets on the bed.

And I buy it today. Umm I'll have really sweet dreams with Simba and Nala ...
I'm planning on going to the Disneystore in Antwerp this weekend and if the stuff I want turn out to be more expensive then ordering, I'm going to order this weekend (Sunday!).
So, if anyone wants that mug:
if I get it at the store: 13 € (18 $)
if I order it from the site: 8 £ (13 $)
see my point? if I order a lot from the site, even incl postage it might be cheaper then getting it at the store itself, since the store doesn't handle exchange rates, they just put a "random" EURO price on it
Not sure about the postage to the US though.
If it's under 350gr then it's about 16 $ ... and if it weighs more it's 25 $.
So yeah, if anyone still wants one, just let me know :)
(I think shipping costs from most EUcountry's would be about the same to the US?)
I might take you up on that offer, I just wonder how much more would we be paying for shipping, I mean the cost from Disney Store UK to you in Belgium. Probably wont be that much since you would be splitting the cost between me and HasiraKali. Unless King Simba can find the mugs at her local Disney Store, but I probably wont know that for a while since she's in Mexico right now.
I wanted to let people know, the US Disney Store website has TLK plushies there now!!! :D I might do some online shopping when I get home from work today... ;) Especially since if you spend $75 or more, the shipping is free, so I don't really have to wait until the next chance we get to go to a Disney Store to be able to buy them.
Wow, even a Mufasa! That is awesome :D Come on, get to the UK already :lol:
The postage from the UK to Belgium is 9,95 £ devided by 3 would be about 4 $.
I know it's quite a lot like that though :s
So silly that they don't ship directly.
I would love the hyena plushies.
I have asked a girl I know who works in Antwerp if they will be availeble there too.
Including those t-shirts, I really like those !
Maybe someone in the US can help me out with those? hehe
(the t-shirts)
I was just wondering, would it be possible if someone who lives in the US does me a big favour and gets those two t-shirts for me? Apparently they're currently on offer and I can get 2 for $20, and you know me with TLK shirts. :p So I was wondering if one of you could get them both for me, and I'll pay you back for the shipping. There's only one problem. My Paypal doesn't work still, so I'll have to pay you using some other method. :\ But there'll be a way. I know there are other money transfer sites out there.
Thanks to anyone who can do this big favour for me. :)
My thoughts exactly. ;) The US site seems to have the better merchandise. The UK site only has the play set and the mug that I'm interested in. The rest are baby clothes which I don't really need right now. :lol:
And it's awesome to see a Mufasa plushie. :D Shame about the price though. 8O
Nathalie, it sounds like with the cost of shipping, buying online from Disney Store UK isn't really saving much compared to just buying directly from your store in Antwerp.
Tara, I'm curious, when your mom went to the Disney Store, did she see those mugs there? If so, I think I would like to buy them from you. (Sorry Nathalie. :( It's just cheaper that way)
Also Tara and Nathalie, I would be happy to help you get those shirts. Although I think they are children sizes, but sometimes even I can wear an XL of children size t-shirts, so I'm sure there is a size you can wear. You might want to look at their sizing chart to figure out what size you want. You two can go ahead and leave me a PM about it and I'll read it when I get home from work. I'm currently on lunch break using my Nintendo 3DS. ;)
Yeah, for you in the US it won't really :(
Belgium is also quite expensive with postage *grrr*
Oh, but I don't wear those t-shirts, hehe :p
I just really like them :D
Oh no... MUFASA! :lol: I'm going to wait on him and see if he goes on sale. He's a bit pricy right now. Not to mention I have no place to put him right now. I already have two Simbas that size and they take up a lot of room. :hehe:
Our store didn't have those shirts yet yesterday. I did get their last Scar though. I'll go back again next Sunday and see what's new.
Look what I got! :D
http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lo...0e9no1_500.jpg
Best $30 I ever spent!
I really want those hyenas too...
:lol: what a cool plushie to cuddle upto sombi
Tara and Nathalie, do you want me to buy both of those shirts for you, and if so, what size? I am anxious to order the Scar and hyena plushies, but I will wait to hear from both of you so I can order all of our orders together. That way the total of everything will go over $75, so free shipping. :D
Ohhhh my gosh I really want the mufasa!!!! :wow: But I cannot afford it.. I too hope it will go on sale :D
HK, where did you find simbas of that size? Could you post a picture if you happen to get a chance?
I'm so stoked for all of this guys!
The first Simba that size I got at Disney World in 1998. My dad got him in Animal Kingdom and had him shipped to the room as a surprise. The other one I got right after the DVD release. They're actually hiding under other stuff in my room right now, so I can't really get a picture of them. I'm cleaning my room next week, so I'll see if I can get one then. :)
When my mum visited the Disney Store, she told me there were none of those mugs there, otherwise she would've picked one up for me. I could go check when I get back to see if they're there, but that won't be for a while yet, so if you don't feel like waiting maybe you can see if another UK member or Nathalie can get it for you.
As for the sizes, I think a medium or large could fit me well. At least I've bought children's shirts in the past and they've fit me well. That's one of the advantages of being so short. :lol:
Thanks Audra. :)
I'm not in a rush to get the mug... But I'm not sure what the best option is now. Maybe I'll just have Nathalie get the mug after all, I know she would probably like to split the cost of shipping between me and HasiraKali.
Tara, I'm still not sure what what size shirts to get for you. :p I better let you decide for sure which size you want. What about you Nathalie, what size should I order for you? (Although I know for you it probably doesn't matter) And you want both shirts right?
I was only 12 when the lion king was rereleased, and so I wasn't able to take much advantage of the merch then :p. However, I did get some random things like backpacks and felt pens.. :) I'm gonna get some of those stuffies from the online disney store and just get them shipped to Gunners so I don't have to worry about space in my suitcase, I'll just get him to bring them to my dorm :D
Audra, I PM-ed you, I would love both shirts ! :D
(biggest size availeble, hehe)
@ Toys r us, baby TLK stuff to dress up your baby's room.
But even without kids, I would SO love to have this lamp, hehe
http://trus.imageg.net/graphics/prod...-9571152dt.jpg
I want that lamp! Wonder if they have that in store. :hmm:
I remember seeing TLK baby decor and bedding at the Toys R Us website! I think that stuff is so cute, and if I ever have a baby, I want to buy all that stuff! :lol: Would cost quite a bit though... :p But I have never seen that stuff at the actual store before, just on their website.
Nathalie I ordered your shirts and Ed plush, and Tara I ordered your shirts! :D Don't worry about paying me back right away, I'd rather wait until I ship your packages to you so I know the total cost including shipping.
I can't wait, I got the Scar plush and all three hyenas! :cheese: I like the other plushies too, but Mufasa is quite pricey, and I even kind of want the elephant, giraffe and zebra plush, but I think I'll wait on those, I might want to see them in person first when I am able to go to a Disney Store within the next few months.
The elephant is massive. Like... it takes up a lot of space. :lol: The giraffe is really cool. Nice and tall.
I'm about to order the Scar, hyenas, and the bean bag timon pumbaa and zazu :D I might just wait a little longer though in case anything else gets released.. I may get the adult simba and nala when I go to disneyland next month :p. I used to have a huge sarabi stuffy and a little rafiki but I stupidly got rid of it a few years ago when we moved houses -_- ah well.
Oh, and here's something that's apparently at hallmark right now:
http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lo...smfro1_500.png
I couldn't find that at Hallmark the other day. I'll try another store this weekend. I really want it for my desk.
Oh, that reminds me, I was going to say, Petteri and I found this at a Hallmark store back in March and we bought it:
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...dL._SS500_.jpg
That's not my photo, but it's the same thing. I keep it on my desk. ;)
Also, wow, a piece of TLK art by Thomas Kinkade?! :wow:
http://www.thomaskinkade.com/htmlroo...ding-v3_01.png
(To get a closer look at the picture, click here and then click on the magnifying glass.)
I'm surprised I haven't seen this before now? It was released last April. I think it's pretty. I kind of want it. You can find smaller prints of it too for much cheaper.
Thank you so much Audra :hugs:
Amanda, did you see my PM yet? ;)
There's a Toys r Us in The Netherlands, but they don't show the TLK things on their website :(
That painting is gorgeous. Here is one for only $119. has anyone seen a print of it for cheaper? The $119 one is canvas but I would like one I could frame.
EDIT: Here you can buy them on ebay for waaaaaay cheaper - it doesn't come with a COA but its the only way I could ever get it :p I'll probably try to get one next paycheque.
There is also this one that has been posted on the disney store site for quite some time, but at $1000 its not exactly budget friendly :p It's probably cause there's only 95 though..
http://as7.disneystore.com/is/image/...9?$mercdetail$
I have yet to see any of those TLK things in hallmark, and its not on their website, but maybe one will pop up :D
The Thomas Kinkade painting looks nice if you don't zoom in too close on the characters xP Where did he reference Nala from? Her Kingdom Hearts model? What -_- And Simba's face looks, frankly, badly drawn. I could go on, but those are the things that bother me the most and would make me not want to pay that kind of money for a print of it xD Other than that, yes, it looks very nice. I kind of prefer the Bambi one he did :3
I'd love to have those other Hallmark things though - they look really cool.
lucky , i wish i could have that stuff. but my parents said no. darn it ! does anyone know if they'll be in store in the fall ?
I would think they keep the stuff in stock for quite some time... at least till the bd comes out
