Dig it? We do. While we like jazz, this upcoming Urban series figure by Thomas Scott has nothing to do with Project Z (though we enjoyed the speculation). Maybe we need a craaaazy beatnik poem set to jazz aboutVinylmation™

In other news, an article was shared today on the Disney Parks Blog about food as merchandise. The article gives a a look at a variety of figures inspired by food and a first look at the upcoming 3-inch figure for the Epcot® International Food and Wine Festival.
Here is a better look at that figure.

For fans of The Lion King, we are excited to officially annouce that the new limited release series will make its debut on Sunday, August 21 at the D23 Expo.
See the announcement on the D23 website.
There will be an artist meet and greet session starting at 10:00 a.m. at the D23 Expo with some of the Disney Store artists who created the series.
Stay tuned this week for an additional look at the series.
