New Monsters University dolls on DS
these are soo cute, I hopr they come to the uk, my youngest daughter would love these
Photo of two Monsters University toys that I purchased in Disneyland (Anaheim) today (Sunday, May 19, 2013). They are based on characters in the Disney/Pixar animated feature Monsters University, to be released on June 11, 2013.
First is the Britney 11'' Plush doll representing a PNK Sorority cheerleader attending Monsters University. She is produced jointly by Disney Theme Parks Merchandise, and the Disney Store. She is not yet available online, and I didn't see her in my Disney Store last week. She looks similar to Carrie Williams, but Britney has magenta hair and faux fur tutu and leg warmers, whereas Carrie's are pink. Britney also has blue skin, while Carrie has magenta skin. Britney has a knit pink sweater, black felt claws, and faux leather hooves. Her outfit is sewn onto her body, as is usual for plush dolls. Unusual for a Disney plush doll is her rooted hair, which is soft to the touch. There is a string around her neck holding her hair close to her head, which I've left alone for now. She has floppy arms and legs, and is a good match for the 11'' posable plastic dolls. I will post more photos of Britney later, when I get the Carrie and Heather dolls. She was $13.95, but will probably be a dollar or two cheaper from the Disney Store.
Second is the Monsters University Deluxe Figure Play Set. It is produced by the Disney Store, and is available in Disney Parks and Disney Stores, and also online. In the photo I have removed the plastic cover, to have a clearer view of the contents. It was $21.95 at Disneyland, but sells for $19.95 at the Disney Store.

The fashion dolls were in my local DS (in the Los Angeles area) a couple of weeks ago. The pins were discounted in the store too with any MU purchase. But I did the D23 15% discount on my total purchase instead, which was a better deal for me since I only got the PNK pin. I got all the PNK plushes. Here's a photo of them together, and another with them compared to their fashion doll counterparts.I just got the PNK and ROR pins for a total of $16! They discounted to $5 ea in the cart, what a crazy deal!

Looks like the beanbags are discounted too, I really want the PNK gals, but I don't do plush often. I'd better stick to the fashion dolls.
Edit: Looks like you get a $5 MU pin with any MU purchase, including the pins themselves. There is a whole set of PNK and ROR mini bean bags.
As a side note has anyone found the fashion dolls in their local store? I live in WA and they are not here, though everything else seems to be, don't really want to do online, as shipping takes forever.
