Lincoln

First debut at the World's Fair.

Robot Butler

Horizons took guests through a vision of tomorrow. Robot Butler has his duster in hand.


Ice Gator

I love the look on this guy's face. He has so much fun enjoying Disney's finest water park. His counterpart, Lagoona Gator from Typhoon Lagoon will be in Park 9.

Country Bears Jamboree
Magic Kingdom 1971-Present

Big Al steals the show at this Frontierland musical treat.


Giant Squid

This ride always scared me as a kid. I always thought the squid was going to cause a leak in my sub.

Figment

Figment is one of the most beloved characters in all of Disney theme park history.

Yeti

The giant yeti chases your vehicle through the mountain. At the end, he swipes (or is supposed to) down at your passing car.

This ghostly blue bride has a viel and is holding an axe. Appartly she is finished with her groom.
Jose

1963-Present

This green bird is your host for Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room.

Boy and Goat
It’s a Small World

This tin gives you a “2 for 2″. Both pieces are counted as 1 figure. Great color and design on the goat.


Mystery Chaser

This figure represents the icon of Pleasure Island at WDW's Downtown Disney in the 80's. A really great representation of an extremely obscure figure. Take a look if you wold like to see him.
