A new collection of fluffy cold weather apparel inspired by Mickey Mouse is coming to Tokyo Disney Resort next month.
The fluffy merchandise will be available beginning on October 31, 2024.
The collection includes hoodies, hats, hair ties, and pouches in black, beige, and pastel shades.
Both hoodies have elastic waists and cuffs. They zip up the front and have two hand pockets. Mickey ears are on top of the hood. A tag on one sleeve reads “Tokyo Disney Resort – Where Dreams Come True – Park Limited.” It features Cinderella Castle with the park’s opening year, 198, and a Mickey head. The tag is beige-colored on the respective hoodie.
The hoodies have the exact same design, just with different colors. The tag is black on the black hoodie. Mickey’s face is embroidered near the hem on the back of both hoodies.
This set includes three elastic hair ties, each with a fuzzy Minnie Mouse decoration. The decorations feature sequin bows. One hair tie is yellow, one is pink, and one is blue.
This cap has a ribbed exterior with a fleece brim. It has two stiff Mickey ears sticking out of the top. The tag on the front is the same as the one on the hoodie. A black adjustable strap on the back reads “Mickey Mouse.”
The black cap has the same design with a white tag on the front.
This beanie has a soft exterior with Mickey ears on top. A Mickey-shaped patch the same color as the hat is near the bottom, with silver gems outlining the icon.
The blue, pink, and black beanies feature the same design, including a matching patch with silver gems.
These earmuffs have a cloudy design of pink faux fur with splotches of blue. The muffs have small Mickey ears.
There is also a solid white version of the earmuffs.
The baby overalls are a beige color, with a zipper down the front. It has two Mickey-shaped pockets at the hips and a hood with Mickey ears.
The baby hoodie is also similar to the adult hoodie, with Mickey ears, embroidery, and a tag.
Each Mickey-shaped plush pouch has a wristlet strap with goldtone hardware. A lobster claw clip allows the pouch to be clipped onto a bag.
The pouches have zippers and solid-colored interiors.
This collection will be at Town Center Fashions in Tokyo Disneyland, at Figaro’s Clothiers in Tokyo DisneySea, and on the Tokyo Disney Resort app.

From the massive D23 Ultimate Fan Event in Anaheim, California, we learned that a new Coco attraction is coming to the Disneyland Resort.
Together Forever at Pixar Fest ©Disney
The attraction will be a boat ride in Disney California Adventure that, unsurprisingly given the plot of the film, will see music play a large role.
Josh D’Amaro went on to say, “Walt Disney Imagineering will draw inspiration for the attraction from beloved classics, like Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean. We’re bringing our skeletal cast of characters to life in a big way through the latest Audio-Animatronics technology. These figures will appear in ways you’ll have to see to believe.”
We’re excited to learn about this first ever attraction inspired by Coco! You’ll be joining Miguel on a special journey, seeing characters and hearing unforgettable songs from Coco on a trip to the Land of the Dead.

Marvel’s Deadpool & Wolverine is 2024’s second-most successful film, as the expletive-laden love letter to Marvel’s 20th Century Fox films has grossed over $1,000,000,000 and sits just behind Inside Out 2 in worldwide gross. However, if you didn’t see it in theaters, we know when the hit threequel will be available to watch at home!
In late September 2024, Disney announced that Deadpool & Wolverine will be available to purchase digitally beginning on October 1st, with physical Blu-Ray copies going on sale on October 22nd.
The film is listed at a digital preorder price of $29.99 at various outlets including Apple and Amazon with a rental option also available.

Four years after Disney+ launched, Disney has shut down several other streaming apps, consolidating their services.
In August, Disney notified customers of various streaming apps that they would shut down on September 23. As of that date, DisneyNow, ABC, Freeform, FXNow, and Nat Geo TV apps are all no longer available. Their respective streaming websites remain up, but any links to the apps have disappeared from the web.
DisneyNow was a precursor to Disney+ that launched in September 2017, combining the streaming services for Disney Channel, Disney Junior, and Disney XD. Various DisneyNow content has moved to Disney+ over the years, including “Mickey Mouse Clubhouse,” “That’s So Raven,” “The Proud Family,” “Phineas and Ferb,” and “Gravity Falls.”
The shutdowns are meant to encourage users to instead subscribe to Disney+ and Hulu.
Disney+ Basic (with ads) is $7.99/month, while Disney+ Premium (without ads) is $13.99. This week, Disney+ launched a paid “extra member” option as they crack down on password sharing.
Hulu’s basic plan is also $7.99/month. Its plan with no ads is $17.99/month. There are also various bundles available for Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+.
