Did you see the trailer during the game where he's bouncing a basketball and it lands on his head? Loved it. I keep trying to get William excited for it. We were at Michaels the other day and I showed him a Wall-E book and he didn't want to put it down!

I'm sure that either me or one of the other WDW CMs here would be glad to purchase and send you the set. You can also try ordering it through WDW Mail Order the morning the pins come out.

Aww, Shorty you're a prince, that's so sweet, but I wouldn't want to trouble anybody. *blush* besides if anybody goes to the effort for a non-CM. . . it sounds like it means a lot to Susi maybe somebody can help her out instead. I just can't believe we missed the Wall-E stuff by so little (merch I mean) on our last trip! Thanks for the info on pins though it's great to know that there are some you can call and order the day of release, I didn't know that!
I also didn't have the email addy, so thank you again!!! :)

I saw that two of the pin designs for the limited edition set are also the artwork (or very very similiar) on the spiral notebooks they have at Disneyshopping.com! And I love notebooks so that will work :) :) :)

Susi it sounds like you have it just right. The InterAction Wall-E is about 30.00 and there is also an Interaction EVE (though she's not shown up at stores yet disney has her online- I want to order but I'm trying to find her locally cause the shipping is killer) they can supposedly talk to each other, way cute.

Then there's the U Command Wall-E which is about 50 and has a remote control.

The one in the clip I posted is Wall-E Ultimate Controland he is due to be released September 13 according to Toys R Us .com. I pre-ordered mine from there. His list price is now 199.99, it went up 20.00 the day after I ordered mine I don't know why. This is the top of the line so to speak, ten motors. . .the thing that gets me is when he tilts up and down on his little treads and looks up at you with those eyes. I know my husband and daughter will spend more time programming and controlling him than I will, I just want to set him to follow me mode and have him follow me around the house LOL

dazyhill thanks for the updates on the product sightings! I love it when folks help me look for things esp. since I can't just hop into the car and drive out to the store to go Wall-E spelunking. Of course, that is probably a very good thing for our budget LOL

Hobie I'm off to watch that clip now! :) :) :)

Anyone can pick up the LE pins in any amounts so if you want the pins too Bru, you just need to have someone who can get them for you. It would not be an eithe/or situation for me getting them or you getting them. The LE pins being released in the Parks can be bought in any amounts by anyone. So someone could buy a couple sets, one for me and one for you and one for themselves as well, if they wanted to...I bet we can find a CM who would do that! Yes? :)

The cast pins can only be bought by cast members. or are given to cast members only and if any cast member wants to give his/hers up, I would be willing to take it off your hands! ;) PM me!

These LE set and single pins cannot be ordered over the phone as they are LE, Limited Edition. LE pins HAVE to be bought at the Parks in most cases. Once in a long while, they will sell the LE pins over the phone, but not very often. You have to BE THERE! You can only buy them if you are at the park.

That is why you are going to need a CM or friend in Florida to pick up the LE set for you unless you are getting down there soon. Lots of the LE sets go very quickly and because this is a new character, I imagine that it will go fast!
So I am interested in the set and the single Wall-E pins. I have a few friends down there that will have them, but they will charge more for them, because theyt will offer them on eBay.

Anyone want to pick them up for me, I will be glad to pay full price and shipping costs! I canot get them til after the 26th of the month. Let me know via PM if you can pick them up for me and Bru if you want them, ask for someone to pick them up for you as well. Someone should be able to pick up several sets.

And yep! The Wall-E that is now 199.99 is the one I want. I do want the 29.99 one for sitting by my pooter and the 49.99 one would be fun as a toy as well.
Then of course the plushie has to come home with me and maybe a few other items.

Hey they are still releasing new Beauty and the Beast pins and items as well as Goofy, so I can't be spending too much on a new character. I just added Stitch to my menagerie this last trip, after seeing some CUTE Stitich stuff.

Except the attraction, Stitches Great Adventure? What a terrible waste of space. That attraction sucks! It does not do anything. They need to put a better attraction in that space. And I had so hoped it was gonna be at least a little funny or fun. It was more fun buying the Stitch tee shirts and keychains and swag after we got out of there.
Anyway, I can see more $$$ going out for Wall-E stuff! He IS cute! I saw a commercial for him last night and he sure is cute. Adorable!!!! You just wanna cuddle him.

ATTENTION Wall-E mart shoppers! LOL

Heads up- free shipping on Wall-E merch this weekend on disneyshopping.com! I was dying to order the InterAction Eve which I have not found anywhere else but on ebay for ridiculous amounts- but the shipping was irritating me. I waited a day and lo and behold- free shipping this weekend only! Ten bucks is ten bucks! LOL

I had to order over the phone since the website was being wonky (again) I swear, the disney shopping site and the WDW site itself are slower and have more bugs than any professional site I've ever seen. I can just never get the SSL pages to load no matter what I do (even turning off the firewall, I know, I've tried it)

So get yer wall-e stuff while it's hot! I have to say their "boutique' was a little of a disappointment so far no adult t's and the girl's ones are so cute I wanted to shrink myself to fit into them. No coffee mugs either how is that possible? But the journals are adorable and there's a cinch bag that's cute too. I held off on those tho cause I have to save up for my ultimate before he ships in September.

All the Wall -E stuff is supposed to hit the 15th, wait, that is tomorrow!!!!!! Check out the Disneyshopping site tomorrow, they all should be there! I want tee shirts, and interactive Wall-E's and the Ultimate and...and..and...
ACKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!! I am going crazy! :wall-e:

I just got my first Wall-E stuff today! I ordered the little action figure new Wall-E and the Golden Book from Amazon. Just wait til my $$ transfer comes at the end of the month! We spent all the rest of our $$ at WDW in May. We overdid it there...a little.... :o:

So at the end of the month right before surgery, I will be ordering Wall-E like crazy! If I can get the durn soft body one, I can sleep with it and make me feel better when I hurt after surgery! :o: ! Though Stitch might get mad. He is my sleeping buddy right now. Ralph does not get jealous because he has Pooh!

I also found a Think PInk Stitich at eBay for a few bucks. I looked to see if there were any more listed. Someone wanted 200.00 bucks for one!!!!! I did not know that they were that collectible. Or someone is trying to make money off unsuspecting buyers. Mine was under 20.00!!!!!

Anyway, check Disneyshopping tomorrow, I thought I read there last week that June 15th was the day! Teeshirts and other swag will be for sale on the 15th AND Mondays is always free shipping from Disneyshopping .com.

Go shoppers!

I forgot to mention: There are Wall-E and Eve Pez dispensers at eBay already as well. They probably are available in the Parks or will be soon enough. I cannot wait to see what will be available in the Parks after the movie comes out. :wall-e:

You know what...it's his eyes....

Hello? The whole *movie* is CGI!

Remember Pixar, the producer of the worlds first feature length fully digitally animated cartoon?

Oh, how soon they forget. :oweye:
