Olszewski update

[spectromen]

Sorry, yes I meant Saturday (got confused with NFFC). Same experience basically, but no luck. The line in the morning just looked too ridiculous (and sunny) to withstand, so I came back around 4 or so only to hear that the popcorn box and coffee cup were gone. I am still astounded that 1,955 of each of those actually sold with a limit of 2 per person. Didn't seem like there were truly over 900 people through that store in 7-8 hours, but I could be wrong.

Thanks for another great update. Any thoughts on where to put the Premiere plaque? There's really no room anywhere that I can see. Thanks!

Hmmm, we never put our premiere plaque on the piece itself. We just put it in front of the piece when it's on display. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Thank you for the update cstephens! I don't normally follow the Olszewski updates, but I saw a picture of the MSEP floats elsewhere and I thought they were just adorable.
Question that maybe you can answer for me- Are the pokitpals readily available at Disneyland?

[cstephens]

Question that maybe you can answer for me- Are the pokitpals readily available at Disneyland?

Generally, yes. They can come in and out of stock depending on demand, but they seem to restock them fairly regularly. They're available at several different places - Disneyana, Disney Gallery, the watch shop on Main Street which I forget the formal name of at the moment - oh, wait, Fortuosity? - as well as Off the Page at DCA and the World of Disney as well.

[CariBelle]

Thank you! I think they would be a cool souvenir, I'm going to keep my eye out on this trip.

Thanks so much for the update. I missed it due to illness, so your writing was especially helpful! Too bad they went a step backwards in efficiency this time.

[Dr. G]

Thanks for another great update. It is appreciated. I'm curious to see what the Cars backgrounds are...
