Jakks Series 2 - complete Snow White set

It is entirely possible that I have been going into Walmart, Target, and Toys-R-Us way to much lately.  However, my persistence has paid off because I was able to find all 5 of the Snow White characters that have been released in series 2.  I was so excited last week when I was given a Snow White and now I have Happy and all three sizes of Grumpy.  Check out these cuties!

All five of the Snow White characters available in series 2

This time I remembered to take a picture before I opened the package
I got lucky and found all three sizes of Grumpy at Walmart

Happy Wondercon Easter to You!

Today I'm off to visit Wondercon, and I figure it is the perfect day to share my favorite new comic book!  I've been a fan of Amy Mebberson's art for some time and was thrilled to hear that she has been working on Disney Princess by Joe Books.  I went out and ordered the first four issues and finally have issue one!



I love how it features a variety of Disney Princess, and while Snow White is not on the cover, she has several stories in the book itself!

Be sure to check it out!

Once again, Disney is getting into the March Madness spirit and has released their bracket to celebrate March Magic.  Last year the Disney Store released T-shirts to go along with the competition, and they are continuing the tradition this year and have added posters as well that can be purchased.

Jakks Tsum Tsum Series 2

When I went to the D23 expo I was thrilled to see adorable mini stacking tsum tsums and I asked if Snow White was one of the characters.  She wasn't in series 1 but I have just found out that series 2 features her, Grumpy, and Happy!  This set came from a Toys R Us and I am feeling that there will be a few more trips in the future for me!
Here is the opened package. Sven was in the blind bag.  I was so excited when I got these, I didn't think to take a picture before I opened it.  Grumpy is pictured on the package (he is blocked by Eeyore in this picture).

The large size Snow White (number 203)
Snow White is only available in the large size, Happy is only available in the medium size (205), but Grumpy is in all three sizes (small 207, medium 208, an large 209).


Here is the check off list - note other sizes of Snow White and Happy are coming

1938 Liberty Magazine

I recently recieved this April 9, 1938 issue of Liberty magainze.




According to Wikipedia:
Liberty was a weekly, general-interest magazine, originally priced at five cents and subtitled, "A Weekly for Everybody." It was launched in 1924 by McCormick-Patterson, the publisher until 1931, when it was taken over by Bernarr Macfadden until 1941. At one time it was said to be "the second greatest magazine in America," ranking behind The Saturday Evening Post in circulation. It featured contributions from some of the biggest politicians, celebrities, authors, and artists of the 20th Century. The contents of the magazine provide a unique look into popular culture, politics, and world events through the Roaring 20s, Great Depression, World War II, and Post-War America. It ceased publication in 1950 and was revived briefly in 1971.

The article inside is pretty interesting:
