Hi! On my trip last week to Disney World, I was addicted to collecting these Vinyl Mickey Dolls. Being the teenager I am, I made my parents buy me one every time I saw that little box. i want to know if anyone else collects them. they also have pins to go along with them too! I love my nine that I have and can't wait to go back so I can collect more! :)
I have 5 Vinyl Mickey Dolls and 7 pins. I cant wait to get more when I go to back to Disney.
i have a bunch:) I'm looking forward to getting more next time(i looked at the next series online and i fell in love with them.) I think they're adorable and perfect because they each have their own "personality" but all match because they are the same shape and look amazing on a lanyard. I got only vinylmations my last trip and so many people complimented them:D
btw, i have 2 dolls & 19 pins, i'm only missing 1 from series 3:/
I'm doing my best to stay away from them, but some are just too cute. I can feel myself breaking down on my trip next year :(
I've not become enamored with them. I do have one that was given to me as a gift. I guess I should get at least one more so he doesn't get lonely, but I'm fighting the urge.
I was going to start collecting the park series #5 when I go out there but they seem to have put the release date back :(
so I'm just going to buy a couple 3" ones blind and then if I dont like the look of them see about trading them at the open trading box spots in the parks and at D-Street
Too much money for something I can't see before I buy. There are some cool ones but I know my luck is I would buy them and just keep getting the ones I don't want. Even if I can see them I still feel they are a bit overpriced. Make them 5 bucks and I'll play ball and take the risk of buying them. They had a cool set that looked like condiment containers (ketchup, mustard, honey, salt and pepper, mayo) and I looked at the price and it was 85 bucks for 6 of them.
That's quite a bit of cabbage for mustard.Quote:

I just went on ebay to look. I found that the condiment ones are selling for like 10 bucks each figure and Kermit the Frog is selling for an absurd amount. Is he hard to find or something?
i think he was like a hidden one or something i dunno... but you see what i mean...? ridiculous...!
Ok I just saw a Haunted Mansion one that is 9 inches and it comes with a 3 inch figure and a button for 999 dollars on ebay. Seriously? That is 1 dollar for every ghost in the Haunted Mansion. Then on top of it the person has the nerve to charge 12 dollar shipping. Wow. I really hope nobody buys it.

It's when they started making PINS of Vinylmation figures... that's when the mind starts to go for cynics like me! And I thought the trash can pins were bad enough!
Would like to have picked up the deep sea diver one though, but knowing my luck the random-figure box would turn out to have something else in it.
The diver one is only like 10 bucks on ebay. I like that one and the Tower of Terror one. Luckily those aren't the super valuable ones. I would rather have ones that look cool than to have one just because it is valuable.

I think the only way though is to ebay or just buy one and carry it around looking to trade it with an open box CM stand
