Montebello Disney Store Grand Opening!

The newly designed Disney Store was unveiled today at The Shops at Montebello, in Montebello California! And the VinylMania staff were on scene to check out the Grand Opening!

The exciting part for us Vinylmation collectors was the release of 3 series: Urban #4, Have-a-Laugh, and the much anticipated Toy Story series! All three series have not been released in the parks or online as of yet! And more importantly this is the first time we have ever seen Vinylmation released in a Disney mall store!  So those lucky enough to attend were one of the first to get their hands on these series!

The crazy long lines to get some personal, Woody, Jessie, and Buzz photo time!

The press was there for the official Disney Store Grand opening. Cutting the Ribbon!

Urban #4 for sale! Tons of cases left (as 12:30pm 6-29-10)

Awesome displays in the store including this mini castle for princess merchandise!

The last of the Toy Story cases, which were sold out by the time I left the store.

Have-a-Laugh series, and Toy Story display.

My babies made it home!

Close up on Woody and Buzz, I like Lotso in the background sneering!

Say Cheese!!!

A new thing with the actual tray box is that the entire top comes off!

Makes it easier to pull things out or set up the top as a backboard!

And our cries have been heard, the boxes are super easy to open without tearing up the box, and the foils seems easy to get into too! Things us collectors notice!

Can't forget the free giveaways, which included some Disney key chains and these bad boys!!!

Forever a kid at heart!
