My Lion King Forum

Heyo! *waves*

Ok. So I'm going to WDW in October and could do with a bit of help. Last time I didnt get a chance to spend time looking in the shops as my friend wanted to see most of the shows...and we were only there for 6 days .

So, for those who have been, can anyone recommend any shops which may sell some merc? I will be visiting all the Disney parks (minus the waterparks) so fire away .

Thanks in advance.

The animal kingdom has a ton of stuff, there's a portion in the african section that has a lot of merch. There are pins all throughout the place, downtown disney has some nice stuff that's a bit pricey. There's also these big figurines of adult simba and nala but their fur coloring was... Weird...

I remember seeing a glass figurines of simba which are kind of expensive. There was also this gorgeous painting that cost over 5 thousand dollars.

Mufasa and simba plush, chibi plushies, pillow pet simba and pumbaa
paintings,figures. there is lots more just keep looking around

Thanks guys . I'd love the glass figures but getting them back to the UK may be a challenge . Are the pins pricey?

As a Florida resident who's only been to Disney World once... I honestly can't say. That said, I'd be pretty interested to see what you find.

I would recommend taking at least a day or two just to explore; look around and see if you can find anything. It's a pretty big place, and pretty busy, too. If you try to do it as something on the side, you're probably going to find yourself short on time.

Your best bet is going to be Animal Kingdom like others have said. Mombasa Market in Harambe has the most TLK related stuff. There was a bunch of left over merchandise from Harambe Nights last year in the back left corner when were there last month. There's also a small gift kiosk across from Harambe Theater that has a bunch of stuff. If you can, get over to Animal Kingdom Lodge: Jambo House and check out their pins. They have a bunch of TLK pins there. Pins run between $8-$30 depending on the edition size and if it's a set. Most of the plushes are available throughout the resort, so if you miss them on place, you can usually find them at another place.

Cheers guys!! Really appreciate the help .

Reg-Oh aye I plan to do that . We are there for two weeks so should have plenty of time to mooch around.

They still had stuff left from Harambe Nights last time you went? Harambe Nights exclusive stuff, which was already a year ago, lol. Thought the items would at least all be a bit limited, haha.

They had the puzzles, a few pins, a small rack of phone cases, and lithographs. It was in the very back of the store next to the store room door.

Disney is very good with themeing, they put the right stuff in specific sections of the park so everything looks like it is part of that land.

I mean if you go to say Thorpe Park for example, it's like "HERE'S STUFF! Stuff everywhere!" you end up with jungle, spooky, water etc stuff all scattered around randomly. But Disney make everything go where it should go, so TLK stuff therefore is mostly at the Animal Kingdom. I would imagine any shops around Rafiki's Planet Watch would be a safe bet, been a while since I last went though.
