	Dug Up (2009) It would be even sweeter if they packaged this talking dog with a junior squirrel.
	King Fergus Brave (2012) Love the peg leg!
	Nemo Finding Nemo (2003) Perfect use of the entire canvas and clear parts.
	Mr. Incredible The Incredibles (2004) Simple yet perfect. Nice use of the ears just for color. His face is positioned perfectly.
	Filmore Cars (2006) Lighting and Matter were on the Mickey platform in a 2-pack... the rest of the gang, including Filmore made it onto the Vinylmation Monorails. It looks like they will not hesitate giving us more Cars in the Pixar 3" series.
	Remy Ratatouille (2007)
	Captain B. McCrea Wall-E (2008) I was really excited to see this one. He fits perfectly onto the canvas. The captain hat is a nice touch. And drawing Auto into the left ear!!!! Brilliant.
	Flick A Bugs Life (1998)
	Chuckles Toy Story 3 (2010)
	Mike Monsters Inc. (2001)
	Jackolope Boundin' Short (2004)
	Mystery Chaser
	Little Green Men Toy Story (1995) LE 1000 $44.95 December 14th 2012 Simple amazing... and a TON cheaper than collecting three Park 2 LGM.
	Tuck and Roll A Bug's Life (1998) LE 1000 $26.95 January 4th, 2013 Hungarian twin pill bugs that act as cannonballs in P.T. Flea's circus troupe.
	9" Crush and 3" Squirt Finding Nemo (2003) LE 1250 $64.95 January 18th, 2013 These two turtles fit well onto the canvas. The ears have a great color to them. Each turtle's signature look is captured well.
	Heimlich (Combo Topper) A Bug's Life (1998) Great use of the new platform. Released November 23rd 2012

Little Green Men Land at D-Street

Friday, December 14th saw the release of the Pixar 1 Little Green Men combo at D-Streets and Online.

The set of three Little Green Men is a limited edition 2000 and retails for $44.95. The online quantity sold out in less than 15 minutes. As of the end of the day on Friday, both D-Streets still had an undefined number of sets left on the shelves. It was not a very crowded release at Walt Disney World. There were about 5 people in line at 6am and about 20 by 8am. There were about 50-60 people at 10:30am when the store opened. I felt bad for the vacationers, of which there seemed to be many. It was a very chilly morning... not the sunny Orlando they were promised.

The Little Green Men fit in nicely with the Toy Story set produced a couple years ago. That set did include an LE 9" version of the alien. Artist Thomas Scott, who handled the Toy Story series, also designed this LE combo. He did a remarkable job with these three little guys. He gave them each a unique personality in the facial expressions and eyes. When put together, they make a perfect trio.

There is, of course also a Park 2 Toy Story Alien. The guys are a little concerned about him as he has a different nose, no antenna  and some suspicious bumps on his stomach. They think he should get those checked out.

An Andy's drawing version from Japan was released earlier this year. The new LGM are impressed by the artistry, but think it best to keep this work of art boxed up until further research can be done. There is also a TS Alien in the recently released Robots 3 set now on sale at The Disney Store and Online. They haven't met him yet.

Then there is the Urban 7 Alien. They don't know where he originates from, but it certainly isn't the claw machine. They are split on weather or not he comes in peace.

By the end of the day, the Little Green Men had settled in and felt right at home in my collection.
