Mrs. Potts Walt Disney Classics Collection

By Nick

I got this Mrs. Potts on eBay several years ago, for a really great price. She came without her box, which was no big deal, but what I didn’t realize when I bought it, she is part of a set! Originally, she came with her son Chip.

She is clearly looking at Chip, and saying “Good Night, Luv.” Which happens to be the name of this piece.

She is 4 1/2 inches tall.

This piece has the pickax production mark, from 1998, in honor of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

I may not have the Chip WDCC piece that accompanies Mrs. Potts, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have a Chip in my collection.

For Chip, along with some other members of the Beauty and the Beast cast, please check out yesterday's post.

Capsule Toys: Disney Cinemagic

I've discovered a new love. Capsule toys. These little beauties come out of vending machines. I've seen these listed as Gashapon and Gacha, but I'm just going to stick with calling them capsule toys.

The 2 pieces I will share today are the 1st couple I purchased on eBay.

First we have The Little Mermaid from the Disney Cinemagic Films Volume 4 collection, and was bought for $5.64, with free shipping.

How small is this figure of Ariel holding Flounder? A little over an inch, or 3.5cm. Ariel and Flounder came detached from the "film strip", and they simply snapped together.

The capsule itself wasn't shipped with the figure, but it did come with a little pamphlet picturing the whole series.

Also included are little clips that connect each new figure to make a "film reel". I'll include that in future posts when I receive more of these tiny treasures.

Next up is a piece from the Disney Cinemagic Museum Collection. It depicts a scene from the musical number "Be Our Guest" from Beauty and the Beast.

It measures about 1.5" inches high and 2" wide. There is a lot of wonderful detail in a small package. In back of Lumiere is Mrs. Potts and Chip. I didn't even notice this until I was photographing it!

This was a bit more expensive, at $7.99, also with free shipping.

 It also came with a pamphlet picturing more from this series.

I'll be sharing more Capsule Toys in the future, so please, Be Our Guest!
