Party Big This Holiday Season with the 'Partysaurus Rex' Ornament

What Up Fishes?! Our excitement was overflowing when news of a Partysaurus Rex holiday ornament was rumored to be released this season. When we heard that it was a Disney parks exclusive, we called the parks merchandise line right away and eagerly awaited Rex's arrival. Approximately 10 days later, we ripped open the package (carefully though...since it's an ornament) and simply smiled while nodding our heads as if to say, "yessss!"

Although our Partysaurus ornament will stay out all year (no way we could pack him up), we can't wait to display it alongside our other Pixar-themed ornaments this season. You can pick up the great Partysaurus Rex ornament at Disneyland, Disney World or by calling the Disney Parks merchandise line at (877) 560-6477 Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM EST. Note that the beads in his hand are not included - helmet, hair and beads around his neck with peace symbol are included.

Let us know by leaving a comment below if you picked up this great ornament!

'Finding Dory' Plush - Baby Dory & Interactive Sea Otters Are Adorable

If you've seen Finding Dory, you've certainly been smitten with the adorable Baby Dory. If you haven't (or just want to enjoy the hilarious scene again), check out this clip featuring Baby Dory attempting to play hide-and-seek with her parents. Now you can take home your very own Baby version of Dory thanks to the latest release from the Disney Store — click any image or this link to buy the adorable plush today. If they're anything like the Baby Arlo (The Good Dinosaur) or Baby Judy (from Zootopia) they'll sell pretty quickly.

In addition to the new Baby Dory plush, they have also released a pair of interactive, cuddling, sea otters as well as a fun Dory ear hat holiday ornament. For even more Finding Dory Disney Store merchandise, check out our previous look at the second wave of Disney Store products.

Build-A-Bear 'Finding Dory' Collection (Photo & Video Review)

If we think back about our toys when we were young, one of the first things we reminisce about are our favorite plush characters — we took them on adventures (real or imaginary), we snuggled them for naps and even invited them to elaborate dinner parties. When the Build-A-Bear Workshop originated in the late 1990's, we immediately wished it were around when we were kids. The experience of picking out your character and then bringing them to life (by stuffing, customizing and accessorizing) is nothing short of magical. Although kids love the experience, it doesn't mean that adults or young adults won't love it just as much — in fact, Julie and I had one of our earliest dates at Build-A-Bear and we still have the flamingo we made.

Build-A-Bear Workshop currently has a limited edition line themed after Finding Dory (featuring Dory, Nemo, Ocean Bear) and they are wonderful — in fact, we think the Dory plush is the best plush we've ever seen made for her. We knew we had to have all three characters and wanted to pass along our thoughts on the line – as well as accessories. Watch our quick-look video below (or direct on our YouTube channel) and let us know your thoughts in the comments below. Which character do you like the most and have you bought one yet?

Head into your nearest Build-A-Bear Workshop (store locator) and check out the full line of Finding Dory plush and accessories.

'Finding Dory' Merchandise Popping Up On Target Shelves

Over the last few days, more and more products related to Finding Dory are popping up online. The retailer, Target has quite a bit of Dory-related kids clothing, toys and a play tent! You'll notice that the merchandise tends to focus on Hank, Nemo and Dory, however we were pleased to see a few items with additional characters such as the crabs, sea lions and otters.

'Finding Dory' Funko Pop! and Mystery Minis Coming Soon

Fans of the Funko series of Pop! and Mystery Mini's will be excited to learn that the fun-and-uniquely designed vinyl figures will be hitting shelves in June 2016. Between the two series, we definitely favor the Mystery Mini figures for the variety and cute-factor. Our favorites are the white tile Hank (camouflaged against the tile background), Gerald (with his green bucket) and Becky the Loon. We'll definitely be picking up a few of these to get our favorites...or maybe all of them. Which characters do you like the most?

Plush Toys

LEGO Minifigures Featuring Mr. Incredible, Syndrome, Buzz & Little Green Men

Hitting shelves this May, a new series of 18 blind-bag LEGO Minifigures will feature (for the first time) characters from Disney and Pixar films. From a Pixar standpoint, we're very excited to see Buzz Lightyear, a Little Green Man, Mr. Incredible and Syndrome. We love the papers that Mr. Incredible and Syndrome are holding — Mr. Incredible's says, "Doing Our Part" while Syndrome's appears to be more of a schematic for the Omnidriod.

If the line is successful, you can almost guarantee that a second series featuring more of your Disney and Pixar favorites would be released — but for that news, we'll have to wait and see. If more figures were to be released, who would you want to see included? Woody, Remy, WALL-E?
