Cuddly Plush for Cozy Nights
First up, a holiday classic! The Mickey Mouse Holiday Plush makes a cuddly stocking stuffer with his velvety furry-trimmed Santa Claus suit and plaid satin pants. Also available is a matching Minnie Mouse Holiday Plush with plaid satin bow, embroidered satin skirt, and satin heels. Both plush have a ‘Disney 2024’ embroidered logo on the shoe to help you commemorate this holiday season. Fans of Moana’s stowaway rooster pal, Heihei, will love snuggling up with the Heihei Plush while dreaming of holiday wishes coming true. Speaking of pals, what better group of friends do you know than Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and Jessie? Disney and Pixar’s Toy Story Holiday Plush Set contains all three Pixar characters dressed in their holiday best.
Now, let’s check out some of the toys for those who love adventure and action.
Train Sets, Remote Control Toys, and Beyond
All aboard! Deck the halls with the Mickey Mouse and Friends ‘Making Christmas Magical’ Train Set. With character phrases, bells and whistle sounds, this toy will bring you to your next stop: fun! For younglings looking to embrace the Force, the Star Wars Gauntlet Communicators will prepare them for any quest. The set of two radio-controlled wrist comms include light and sound effects, plus a communication feature to help you interact with a fellow galactic hero when you separate the gauntlets.
Have everyone shout, “I am Groot!” while playing the Groot Token Toss Game. With a figural Groot, planter, and 25 tokens, see who gets the highest valued tokens inside Groot’s planter before the timer runs out.
Searching for the perfect toys for a cozy night in? A fun play set is just what your little one needs.
Play Sets for Those with Big Imaginations
Kids will have endless hours of fun with the Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck Playhouse Set which includes Mickey and Donald’s two homes with fixtures, furnishings, and character figures – a Pluto figure is also included to make it a complete pawty! Now, let’s change lanes and shift into high gear with the Mack Hauler Play Set – Cars. After a full day of winning races and going on adventures with Lightning McQueen and Tow Mater, stow the cars back in their trusty carrier, Mack, as his headlights light the way to the next day. For those on the go, take along a toolbox of fun with the Mater’s Junkyard On-the-Go Play Set – Cars. This carrying case contains Mater’s Junkyard, Lightning McQueen and Mater vehicles, fences, tire stacks, and more to help you bring Radiator Springs to life. Ka-Chow!
Rounding out Disney Store’s Top 20 Toys list are Dolls and Action Toys – as no play time would be complete without these!
