Love This!
Are there any plans to sell the Precious Moments Sweetheart Dolls on-line?
Hey Adam! There are no current plans to have the dolls online, however I would recommend calling our Disney Merchandise Guest Services number at 1-877-560-6477 if you are interested in obtaining any of them. I hope that helps.
Surprised that there are no pin trading events in the first quarter at Disneyland. I love WonderGround but the prices are prohibitive for the average person and so the events, while cool, are not a draw for me. Any exciting merchandising for the average Disney fan that cost less than $100 a piece?
Hi Craig! You’ll be excited to know that there will be a Pin Trading Night on March 15th from 5 – 8 pm in the Pacific Ballroom at Disney’s Paradise Pier Hotel. You know if you’re looking for a real deal, it’s our Artist Sketches. Though the prices can range depending on the number of characters, its totally affordable and can provide a great captured memory of your visit, whether your favorites are characters, attractions or park icons. Be sure to check them out next time you’re at the Resort.
