Project Manager for Disney Trading Steven Miller was gracious enough to give us a few minutes of his time to take a look at some upcoming Vinylmation being previewed at the Vinylmation booth at Festival of the Masters at Walt Disney World this weekend. Here is our Vinylmation Station exclusive video!

From Official Vinylmation Blog:

At the recent Vinylmation™ Showcase event, Donald Ferro showed several of the Vinylmation™ Flags figures. Once released, these figures will be in an open edition window box. The countries selected include those found in World Showcase at Epcot® plus Brazil.

 

Why Brazil? Contrary to popular Internet belief, Brazil is not planned to be a pavilion in World Showcase at Epcot® (though the rumors made us smile). The country was selected based on the fact that there are many Guests from Brazil that visit Disney Parks and Resorts. We felt this country would make a nice addition to the Flags series. The Flags box does not contain a line up of figures as there is always room for additional countries.

Cody Smith has returned from a final day at Trade City USA, today was the Vinylmation Showcase. Not only did we have the ultimate preview area, but also taking place was the Vinylmation Conversation, a 30-minute information presentation by Steven Miller of upcoming news and previews in the Vinylmation World.

Let’s begin with a Park Series #5 Preview of the whole set (excluding chaser, and a few 9in Figures)

With last week’s preview on the Official Vinylmation Blog of an American Flag Vinylmation Figure, for the Fourth of July, and yesterday’s preview of a French flag on the Disney Parks Blog in Steven Miller’s most recent article for Bastille Day. It seems there is a reoccuring theme of International Flags, and today the Official Vinylmation Blog featured this:

Vinylmation™ fans will want to read the Impressions of France article on the the Disney Parks blog for a sneak peek of an upcoming figure.

It almost seems as if there is some sort of pattern emerging. . .hmmm.

I’ll say a Internation Flag Series is coming soon. Stay Tuned to Vinylmation Station for the latest information and news.
