Tom is moving to Japan next week, and he needs to lighten his load a bit before he goes. Tom will be parting with over 300 personal items to benefit some WDWNT projects in our studio, museum, and beyond.
WDWNT Spring Cleaning Auction
While the auction doesn’t officially begin until 12 p.m. Eastern time today, you can go now to the auction website to look at the different items Tom will be parting with and even view a demo of how the auction will function when it goes live. You’ll also want to register in advance so you’re ready to bid when you’re favorite items come up.
Auction Catalog Highlights
The 35th anniversary of Disney’s Hollywood Studios is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate (other than by attending WDWNT.com’s Stage 89) than by picking up this 20th anniversary Limited Edition Director Mickey pin. This pin is part of a limited edition size of 1,500. It comes on its original backing card.
Other Disney’s Hollywood Studios-related items available in the auction include more pins, commemorative pieces from the inaugural Disney Jollywood Nights, and a guidemap from the park’s 30th anniversary.
Also up for bidding is this Country Bear Jamboree Sipper Jug. The Magic Kingdom version of the classic attraction closed earlier this year, with its final show not taking place due to technical difficulties. This summer, the attraction is set to reopen as the “Country Bear Musical Jamboree,” and will feature Disney songs reinterpreted “in different genres of country music, including bluegrass, pop-country, Americana, rockabilly,” and more. Read our detailed history of the Country Bear Jamboree.
Another interesting Country Bear Jamboree item available for auction is this Liver Lips McGrowl bean bag plush. Once the Country Bear Musical Jamboree opens this summer, this bear will receive a new, updated look and name — Romeo McGrowl.
Tom’s collection is packed with items from Disney Parks around the world. One such item is this Elsa Coat of Arms pin from the newly opened World of Frozen at Hong Kong Disneyland. Featuring the crocus, this pin is only available from the all-new themed land, where guests can meet Mossi the Baby Troll, ride on Wandering Oaken’s Sliding Sleighs, and join Anna and Elsa in their “Playhouse in the Woods.” Other pins from the land are also available for bid.
Disney Parks fans will no doubt recognize this wrapped-in-box copy of The Game of Life, Disney Parks edition. Enjoy the classic game featuring favorite characters and attractions, or keep it wrapped and preserve its status as a collector’s item.
