food IS a theme park
We may not be real-life Disney princesses and princes, but we do occasionally dine with royalty and visit their castles.
Magic Kingdom
We can also deck ourselves out in the latest royal gear! And we just found the PERFECT royal merch for any royal wannabe!
We might as well just live on the shopDisney site because we spend so much time there. How else are we supposed to get our Disney fix when we’re not in the parks?
Halloween merch display at Riverside Depot
And we just got a sneak peek of some INCREDIBLY cool stuff that will be arriving on shopDisney soon! Fine Disney…take our money…AGAIN.
It’s the 40th anniversary of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and we’ve seen a lot of awesome merch already released. But the coolest and most popular items were part of the Minnie Mouse: The Main Attraction Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Collection.

And items from that collection are hard to come by: we recently saw a pretty long line in Magic Kingdom when we tried to get our hands on some of that sweet merch at Disney World.
It’s officially SPOOKY season, and that means we can celebrate the Haunted Mansion even more than we normally do! We’ve seen a lot of really cool Haunted Mansion merch in the parks, including Haunted Mansion Crocs (!!!), Haunted Mansion Loungefly bags, and a Haunted Mansion wallpaper mask.

But there’s one specific character in the Haunted Mansion that’s been getting a lot of attention lately!
Hello, everyone, from Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Mickey Mouse at Hollywood Studios
So what’s new at Disney’s Hollywood Studios since the last time we checked in? Not a lot, but here’s what we found.
Between Baby Yoda and Chuuby, merchandise at Disney World has gotten REALLY cute lately!

But there’s another cute little creature in the Star Wars universe deserving of some shoulder plush love — there’s a NEW Porg plush we spotted at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge! [Read more…]
Although we love colorful things here at DFB, we also appreciate going old-school to black and white (or grayscale) because it reminds us of Steamboat Willie and the Mickey Mouse Club of the 1950s!

So when we were perusing the shopDisney site, as one does, we got excited when we saw the new Grayscale Collection!
Every time we turn around, it seems like Disney is releasing a new set of Minnie Ears. And while sometimes the “new” ears can look MEGA similar to other ears we’ve seen around the parks, Disney has actually come out with some different and more original ears lately. And we have ZERO problems with that! We are loving lots of the new styles and colors!
Orange Corduroy and Yellow Velvet Ears
We’ve already shown you the new Haunted Mansion Minnie Ears (!!!), as well as the Faux Leather Ears, and the Lilac Ears! But we also love these ears that make us think of fall colors, everything pumpkin spice, and apple-flavored drinks!
The Minnie Mouse: The Main Attraction Collection of Disney merchandise is so popular that people are standing in long lines for new collections at the parks!

A new collection drops every month (although there was a slight hiatus this summer), and we’ve seen many of these collections sell out FAST at the parks. We’re talking like we blink and they’re GONE (although Disney does occasionally release more stock).
We are all about Halloween here at DFB. And so we’re pretty psyched that it’s Halloween season at Disney World!
Halloween at Magic Kingdom 2020
We’re also all about Disney World Halloween snacks and Halloween merch! BRING IT ON!
