October 31, 2026

Disney Toy Soldier Nutcrackers Inspired by Mickeys Once Upon a Christmastime Parade at World of DisneyIf you have ever watched Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade and wished you could take one of those marching toy soldiers home with you, here’s some good news! You can now, just a much smaller version!

Toy Soldier Nutcracker in a Red Coat and Tall Plumed Hat Sold at Walt Disney World for the 2026 Holidays

Disney is selling toy soldier nutcrackers that replicate the ones in Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade. They are dressed in the same look you know from the parade: bright red coats with yellow buttons, tall red hats with white plumes, white gloves, and black boots, all standing at attention on a black base.

They are flying off the shelves fast enough that there is a limit in place: two per item, per guest, while supplies last. So if you want a pair on your fireplace or anyplace to add magic to your home, do not wait too long to grab them.
