If only it were so... they're men's sizes, and the sample of the small that Kevin & Jody had me try on was comically huge. You should have seen me try on the XXL!

or, perhaps you should purchase the xxl and fashion a Sears catalog style capri outfit from it!

Just a quick reminder - not only does the Tangaroa lamp go on sale tomorrow - but also these wonderful items from Pirates Of The Caribbean....
On the small pewter figures - Jody Daily went so far as to pull the Marc Davis originals they were based on to match the colors exactly!
No one at the Walt Disney Company is creating collectibles with such a strong nod to the original designers. The detail on the pewter pieces has to be seen in person....

Here's the link for the Tangaroa Lamp:
http://disney.store.go.com/DSSectionPage.process?Merchant_Id=2&Section_id=14418&Product_Id=187447&Searchstr=tiki+room&Page=1
However - this little blurb on the page concerned me a bit:
" WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, or birth defects or other reproductive harm. "
Whatta they got in that tree? Asbestos?

This is due to Prop 65 and pertains to the electrical power cord. Apparently the plastic coating on just about all power and extension cords is carcinogenic.
From http://www.prop65apt.org/
Furnishings, Hardware, and Electrical Components.
Room furnishings and building materials contain formaldehyde, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. Furniture, foams, brass keys, electrical power cords, carpeting, carpet padding, wall coverings, wood surfaces, and vinyl, contain a number of chemicals, including lead, and formaldehyde, known to cause cancer, and/or birth defects or other reproductive harm. Their presence in these materials can lead to exposures. Certain molds that may be present contain chemicals, including sterigmatocystin, known to the State of California to cause cancer.

Also - it looks like the "No longer available" message on the Host Shirt page is gone! Do they have more...? It looks like they may have some Mediums left.... Give them a call at 1-800-328-0368 or check the page here:

The Tangaroa lamp is still not sold out yet. Do they ever mark down these collectibles? I really want one of these lamps but not for $200.

I don't think that they will mark this one down... Yes - the price is steep, but when you see it in person - I'm sure you will think it was worth it!
And man oh man - I'm sworn to secrecy - but you guys are gonna flip over what's coming next May! (Sorry to be such a tease.... I'll say something as soon as I can...)

Yes, they mark down the things that don't sell.
I got me a primo 20,000 Leagues water globe for 50 bucks.
Check this deal out!

So close -- surely, it's the "Tickle Me, Eo!"
Seriously though -- I want a repro of the host dress, durnit!

After a brief powwow with Tangaroa to compare notes, it turns out there are TWO cool Kevin Kidney/Jody Daily/Disney announcements on the horizon -- stay tuned!
