Jakk Series 3 Blind Bag

I was so excited to come across the series 3 Tsum Tsum mystery stack pack because it included a Dopey stack!  Unfortunately it took me one Jasmine, 2 Luckys, and 3 Tinkerbells before I got the Dopey.  (beware when feeling the package, the Diamond is not on Dopey's back and is separate from him.  He comes in 3 separate pieces with no bumps on the Tsum).  However, I did get him!

New Snow White Book?

I follow The Disney History blog by Didier Ghez after finding his books "Walt's People" so fascinating.  Each book is a collection of interviews from Disney legends (animators, producers, directors, imagineers...).  I have found many useful interviews directly related to the making of Snow White and hope to catch up on my reading.  Volume 17 was just released this July.



Ghez posted an update about upcoming projects and I was thrilled to learn that he is editing about collection of interviews focused on the making of Snow White!  He expects it to be released this August or September with a volume 2 to come.  I can't wait to get my hands on this book!

I did a little searching and Ghez posted a link to a chapter of a Snow White book back in 2013 and I believe this blog is David Johnson's, the author.  It doesn't appear to have been updated much.

While we wait for the release of this book, if you are a Disney history nerd, check out the Walt People's series:

E Ticket Magazine

There was a wonderful fan magazine published from 1986 to 2009.  I have been slowly accumulating all the issues and am currently missing only three more issues.  Two issues featured Snow White's Scary Adventures - issue 4 and 13.  While I'm still waiting to find issue 4, I have issue 13.

It's a very interesting look into the original attraction before it was update.

While you can no longer buy very early issues, you can purchase them on CD-Rom.  The Walt Disney Family Museum acquired all the content to the magazine and you can now purchase back issues as well as the CDS.

Disney Princess Magazine

I was wandering around in a book store the other day and I saw this:

May/June 2016 Disney Princess Magazine

I was surprised to find the main story on the first few pages all about Snow White!  "A Windy Adventure" is a story about Snow White heading out to collect supplies to make a surprise for the dwarfs when the wind interferes with her plans.  The story runs from page 3 to page 8.  This particular issue also features a story about Sleeping Beauty.  

Back cover Snow White game

The magazine also features lots of games and crafts with lots of Disney princesses as well as a pull-out poster.  The magazine is published six times a year and is suggested for readers 3 to 9 years old.

Have an extra $925,000 dollars? Want to live in Snow White's cottage?

 I recently came across a Snow White cottage for sale in Washington sate.  This is a four bedroom and four and a half bath home and was designed with the Seven Dwarf's cottage in mind.

Disney Mania Connvention

The Disneyana Club (formally the NFFC) will be holding it's annual convention this week and I saw that they have a Snow White item as one of the raffle prizes.  It is a limited edition Costa Alavezos sculpture featuring Dopey, Grumpy, Happy, and Sleepy riding Splash Mountain!  Does anyone know anything else about this piece?

Hallmark Items

It was my birthday last month and my dad found me the perfect card!

I went to Hallmark to find another, but I didn't find the card in my Hallmark. I did find these mugs though.

I really like the Disney Line that Hallmark has.  I hope to see more Snow White and Dwarfs!
