Mickey Mouse: Walt’s original—the essence of all things Disney. In retro style, the Mickey Mouse puppet dons his signature red shorts, large yellow-gold shoes, and white gloves. This exquisite Mickey Mouse puppet comes to life when you animate mouth and hands through the access point in the back. Additionally, find pockets in the gloves to wave, clap and blow kisses. Available now. 22” tall. Ages 3+. SRP $73.99
Minnie Mouse: In similar fashion, Minnie Mouse is adorned in sumptuous materials as she sports her classic style of polka-dotted skirt over bloomers, over-sized high heeled pumps, white gloves, and flower in hat. Enliven her persona by animating the mouth and arms through the hidden access point in the back and wave and clap her hands through openings in each glove. Available now. 22” tall. Ages 3+. SRP $73.99
Donald Duck: The Donald Duck puppet is ultra-huggable. Decked out in his characteristic sailor shirt, bow-tie and cap, Donald has movable mouth and hands that bring his feisty personality to life with your creative imagination. Available end of February. 22” tall. Ages 3+. SRP $85.99
Pluto: The gang’s loyal canine companion Pluto has an expressive face with movable mouth and perky ears.
