Disney has come out with fantastic souvenirs over the years. Loungeflys? We’re obsessed. Cute apparel? Just take all our money.
However, Disney can’t win every souvenir metaphorical battle. We’ve seen some pretty awful, scary, and just plain terrible souvenirs in our time, and now we’re bringing you 5 of the most recent souvenirs that have us scratching out heads.
A $100,000 Spaceship Earth
*sigh* Here we go again. Yes, there is a $100,000 Spaceship Earth Statue FOR SALE in EPCOT. It’s stunning, don’t get us wrong. We just can’t imagine dropping 100K on it!
Okay, we’ll be honest…it’s only $99,000 but STILL! Who the heck goes into EPCOT for a fun park day and is able to walk out with a fragile, CRYSTAL statue that’s half a payment on a small house in a rural area? It’s absolutely beautiful, and you could certainly brag about having it for the rest of your life. Anyone wanna chip in?
Glass Statues
Speaking of fragile, you can get gorgeous glass blown statues in a few different spots in Disney World. Crystal Arts in Magic Kingdom, Arribas Brothers in Disney Springs, as well as the Mexico Pavilion and Kunstarbeit in Kristall in EPCOT. Why do we see these as a strange souvenir? Let’s say it again — GLASS. IN. DISNEY.
These are beyond beautiful, but they break VERY easily, and if you’re getting one, we suggest being a local who is walking out of the park immediately and sticking it on your shelf. If you’ve traveled to Disney, we hope you have tons of bubble wrap with you to pack it in a suitcase — even better, just hold it wrapped in your hand and don’t let go until you get home.
This Terrifying Stitch Bed
Listen, we love Stitch merchandise just as much as you do. But there’s a line that shouldn’t be crossed. And that line is when Stitch looks like he’s eating your animal.
AHH! JUMPSCARE! See what we mean? Since your pet is crawling IN Stitch’s mouth, it really looks like they’re being eaten. And maybe that’s…not the greatest design idea?
Massive Glow Necklaces
If you’ve ever needed to have a literal beacon on so your person your family can see where you are, these massive glow necklaces are perfect for that.
How…how do you wear these? They’re super fun for kids — it’s perfect to fit whatever holiday you’re celebrating, but at any other time, they just confuse us. Don’t get us wrong, we love the IDEA, but do they have to be like a small lighthouse? One thing is for sure, unless everyone around you is wearing them, you won’t lose your group in the parks.
The Silliest Costumes We’ve Ever Seen
Remember these intersting Halloween costumes from October 2023?
Sorry, we should have warned you about the jump scare. Seriously, these are wild. We’ve been laughing at these costumes every time we come across them for three months now.
Now, if the goal was to make us laugh uncontrollably, mission accomplished, 10/10 job.
And there’s so much more where that came from. We love Disney and most of the merchandise they put out, but sometimes…we just scratch our heads.
