is set to release a whole bunch of fun new merchandise when the construction walls come down this June!
Check out all of the foodie-related items that I found at the recent Passholder Preview this week (where I also tried the new popcorn flavor and slushies that will debut!). I absolutely love the new artwork being used.
I just love the retro-looking image of Mickey and Minnie pulling the trailer on this lunch bag. It’s also insulated, roomy, and it has an adjustable carrying strap!
Disney likes to call these “toothpick holders.”
Love these adorable glass “milk jugs!”
My favorite item? That adorable glass milk jug. I couldn’t leave without it. I’m also digging the lunch box!
Have you had a chance to check out any of the new California Adventure merchandise? Do you have a favorite item, yet?

Hehe, the “toothpick holders” look suspiciously like what I like to call a “shot glass”.
Those milk jugs *are* pretty cute.
Mandy says
Looks like I’ll definitely be needing to take an empty suitcase for souvenirs when we go!
AJ says
Kelly — Exactly! 😉 Me, too!
Mandy — Yay!!! When’s your trip?
Heather Sievers says
@Kelly – Yep! My thoughts exactly!
@Mandy – And this was only the “food” related merch! Lots of other cute stuff too!

I have never noticed that they were “toothpick holders”!! HIIIGH-LARIOUS! My youngest,who the sun&moon sets&rises with Cars is going to be in HOG HEAVEN when Cars Land opens! I already know we aren’t walking out of there without the Lightening McQueen plastic cup and anything that has Mater on it *sigh*.
Not sure if anyone else had one of these but we had this viewfinder thing that you put long,yellow cassettes in(smidge narrower than a VHS) and you’d wind it and it would click,click,click through the movie. Anywho, we had the one when Mickey&the Gang went on a camping trip pulling that very trailer! Of course there was silliness with Goofy&Donald and it unhooking and them bouncing around. Seeing that image printed on the various things brought me back to be like 5 and laughing at that silly viewfinder!
Brandy says
And that was *WHO THINKS THE sun&moon sets&rises with Cars..stupid preggo brain that still hasn’t gone away 2 years after the youngest was born : D

I’ll be no where near DLR, but if I was I know that something with the M&M car and vaca. trailer design would adopt me. I agree that they and their little car and trailer are just too cute. I too, have a little nephew who also lives for ‘Cars’ and I would probably be taking them home, too.
Heather Sievers says
@Brandy – I TOTALLY had that same thing you are talking about! This, right? http://www.retroland.com/fisher-price-movie-viewer/#.T3pPmdUw8TA
@Essie – That design is pretty cute, it would be hard to go home without something!
