Disney Store Tunes Vinylmation Explained

Update: 02/20/12 Four of six figures released today. Stitch, Daisy, Mickey and Goofy. Thanks to Vinylmation Kingdom for the picture of the yet to be released Donald figure.


Update: 01/28/12 February 20th release date set for Country Daisy, Disco Goofy, Classical Mickey and Punk Rock Stitch. Classic Rock Donald and 80's Dale will be out at a future date yet to be determined.


Update: 01/11/12 Picture of Classical Music Mickey released!
Looks amazing in my opinion! That face is classic! And i really like the use of body to put the music sheet stand. The music notes in the ears are a perfect touch. The conductor wand looks too much like Fairy Godmother's though for my taste.


Update: 12/29/11 Pics of the actual Dale and Goofy figures were released below. Also, the list in the previous update of the other 4 characters has been confirmed by Disney.


Update: 12/23/11 Vinylmation Kingdom and Stitch Kingdom are reporting more figures that will be available in this series. Country Music Daisy, Classical Music Mickey, Classic Rock Donald and Punk Rock Stitch. No concept art available for those figures yet.

12/22/11 Today the vinylmation.com blog revealed a new series we are tentatively calling "Tunes" and it seems it might be a Disney Store exclusive (based on the the file name including DSTunes).

It seems to have Disney characters dressed in the attire of various music styles from a myriad of time periods. First up is Dale dressed in 80s wear and Goofy dressed as a cast member of Saturday Night Fever.

Punk Rock Stitch

Mohawk. Spike dog collar. His facial expression. Amazing figure.

Classic Rock Donald


After wondering the direction on this one, they decided to go England classic rock. Love what we see.
Country Daisy


The hat is priceless. The outfit is very old school country girl. This is diffently no Taylor or Mirranda. The face is a little weird, but I like the artist trying new things with the duck bills.
Classical Mickey

Perfect. The use of the baton and the stand in front of him give this figure a lot of character. Hopefully they make his baton a little less "fairy godmother" light blue. And I hope he has tails on!

80s Dale

This guy looks a little confused as to just what he's representing. Is it the 80s colors? The Walkman? The fingerless gloves? The sweat bands? There is a whole lot going on here.

After update: The headphone accessory is radical! And check out the totally tubular detail on the cassette Walkman! This figure is too legit to quit.

Disco Goofy

I love this one. Disco balls in both the ears. An obvious big hair accessory! I love the suit too.

After Update: The hair does look similar to Spooky Series and the disco balls look amazing!
