Sorry if there is a thread like this, I couldn't find one but I might be being blind ! :lol: I thought it would be fun for people to post they favourite piece of merch, be it a book, plush, figure or anything inbetween :)

My favourites are definately the purring Kiara and Kovu plushies. They are so loveable and the fact that they make cute little noises is just the icing on the cake :) But my Art of The Lion King book and 6 New Adventures books come a close second

Actually these are my personal favorites. Both of these are really good and a must-have for a true true Lion King fan with a bunch of money to blow. I got the Art book for Christmas and it took me a long time to find the 6NA books. Thankfully, a certain admin helped me out ^^ Regardless, I'm never letting go of either of them.

I know exactly what you mean :lol: I think i got mine for ok prices i paid about $110 for both of them (bought seperately though) but I wouldn't be without them. When ever i'm feeling a bit down a quick flick through them brightens up my day!

Probably my Mufasa WDCC statue. I saw it when TLK first came out and always wanted it. I finally found it a few years ago on ebay and my mom won it for my birthday. It's the centerpiece of my curio cabinet.

I also love my TLK:6NA books and my Pride Rock snowglobe - another thing I saw when TLK first came out and only just recently was able to buy.

My favourite pieces of merch are probably my old figurines that I've had since I was little :)

Proabably that Lion king 2 picture frame that has Vitani on it, since that is basicly the only other piece of merchandise she appears on besides that plushie that looks nothing like her. Oh and my second favorite is the 6 New Adventures books because of Kopa!

A tie between either my 2002 Imax re-release poster and my original 1995 VHS cassette (without the upc since there was an offer to save money!)

Well, we have ALL the recently-released plushes from TLK (thank goodness The Disney Store started selling this stuff again). We had to go on a waiting list for the hyenas but... I would definitely say our favorite merchandise is the entire plush collection (adult Simba, adult Nala, Scar, even the giraffe and zebra, lol).

But now that my daughter and I are becoming even bigger fans, we want more and it's hard to find. :(

She wants Kovu and Kiara plushes; I saw some listed on Amazon but haven't checked yet to see if they're the real thing.

She'd love Vitani and Zira plushes but I don't know if they exist. :(

Your lucky to have the whole 'new' plushies set! I only have Scar, Ed and baby simba and Nala. They didn't sell the others over here for some reason which kind of sucks. Plus shipping is sooo much from the US for something like that.

Which Kovu and Kiara plushies are you looking for? They pop up quite often over here :) I have 3 pairs of the smaller 'floppy' Disney store Kovu and Kiaras and I have the bigger UK Kovu but i'm still on the hunt for his matching Kiara
