Well in my last article, I told you about the changes in this well-loved line. I know we all felt a little unsure and the letter from David Nicklin gave us an interesting glimpse of Enesco’s plans. Well, here is proof to show the extent of that commitment — announcing an unexpected fourth quarter release! It looks great and I thought you would all like to have a sneak peek at what’s to come.

So, this is a great surprise for the holidays as gifts. I think it has been a great year for the WDCC line with Enesco as the new licensee. I expect we will see the announcement of the 2005 membership piece soon as well. So, “The Magic Lives On” in the Walt Disney Classics Collection!
Cindy Russell is the owner of ” Where The Magic Begins”, a full-service Disney collectibles store in Livermore, California. Feel from to drop her a note with any questions you might have about this or any other Disney collectible. Who knows? It might end up the subject of a future JHM column.
