From Official Vinylmation Blog:

After a long break we are back! As we’re sure you can guess, we’ve been busy putting together the finishing touches on our Trade City USA – Vinylmation™ Showcase event. We really can’t wait as it will certainly be a historic occasion as it is our first Vinylmation™ event.

As part of the event we will be offering a silent auction featuring many Vinylmation™ items, including one-of-a-kind and rare figures. Click here to download the catalog showcasing all of the auction lots. We especially love the one-of-a-kind Vinylmation™ Figures by Chris Chapman and Adrienne Draude. While we tried our best to capture the amazing artwork, they really must be seen in person to get the full impact. Both figures also come with unique packaging as well which make them true collector items.

Look for more sneak previews of the event in the upcoming week. We can’t wait to meet all of our Vinylmation™ fans on August 29!

From Walt Disney World Annual Passholder Website:

Mark your calendar for August 29, 2010 at 10:30 a.m., when the first-ever Passholder–exclusive Vinylmation 3″ figure of Mr. Toad is released at D Street. This specially designed collectible brings to mind the classic Magic Kingdom Park attraction and appeals to the playful side of both adults and children. Don’t miss the opportunity to add this Passholder–exclusive figure to your Vinylmation collection. You will, of course, receive your Passholder merchandise discount on your purchase.

 

Remember When
The new Passholder-exclusive 3″ Mr. Toad Vinylmation figure is bold with a touch of frivolity… and brings back treasured memories of the historic Walt Disney World attraction. In a red suit jacket and bow tie and with ears perked up and mouth open, Mr. Toad is poised to catch any passing remarks (or flies). Proudly standing tall, he’s the perfect size to perch on a desk—or lily pad.
