You’ll find TONS of souvenirs around Disney World. Disney offers lots of variety in their merchandise, so you’ll likely find something you love and want to take home.
Some items are typically more popular than others and can be found at several locations, including multiple parks. Some of these items are Loungefly backpacks, t-shirts, Spirit Jersey shirts, and, of course, Mickey and Minnie ears. But Cast Members have recently noticed the rising popularity of certain souvenirs that you can only find in one spot in all of Disney World!
As you may know, DinoLand, U.S.A., will soon be re-themed into a new Tropical Americas land, Pueblo Esperanza. The construction for this new land is set to begin this fall and will occur in phases. As of now, Disney has not announced when the first closures at DinoLand will occur, which means people are getting their fix of the dinosaur-themed land while they can.
Because of this upcoming land change, several Cast Members that we’ve talked to have told us that they have noticed a few DinoLand souvenirs become exponentially MORE popular, and they may only be around for a limited time. These souvenirs are exclusive to DinoLand and include the adorable dinosaur and Mickey and Minnie plushes that you can only win at the carnival games at DinoLand. These are even more exclusive because you can’t buy them anywhere; you must win them!
The Cast Members running the games that you can win these at have also noted that they have a limited supply left of the plushes, and they’re not sure that they’ll be restocked once they are gone. If they run out, you may see generic (non-DinoLand themed) plushes turn up to win instead. So, if you want to win one of these exclusive DinoLand plushes before they go extinct, you’ll want to go play the carnival games ASAP!
Other souvenirs that have become more popular in DinoLand are the pressed penny souvenirs! There are a variety of designs on machines around DinoLand that feature some of the awesome dinosaurs featured in the land. Once DinoLand is gone, you likely won’t find these pressed penny options anywhere else in Disney World.
The last souvenir Cast Members have noticed become more popular in DinoLand are the create-your-own dog tags! These are also themed to DinoLand, and the designs will likely be unavailable once the land is closed.
It makes sense that these souvenirs that are limited to only DinoLand, U.S.A., are becoming increasingly more popular. These are items we will probably never see again in Disney World once DinLand is gone. If you’re a fan of the Animal Kingdom land and want a special souvenir to remember it forever, you’ll want to head there soon to grab your exclusive souvenir!

I noticedthe adorable stuffed dinos that another guest had on our last trip, and I am SO GLAD that we spent some time in Dinoland winning our own. I’m just sorry we missed out on the pennies and the dog tags – too cute!
