Disney's Mary Poppins with Jane and Michael Banks is a wonderful set that includes Mary in her nanny outfit of white blouse, twill skirt and overcoat. And as you might expect, she also carries her parrot umbrella and wears a daisy straw hat on her head. 5" Jane wears a pretty little apricot dress with lace trim while Michael is quite correct in white shirt and navy jacket, shorts and cap.

The very antithesis of Mary Poppins is the very wicked Cruella Deville. Dressed in a white "Dalmatian " coat that is lined in red and carrying a purse made from "Dalmatian" tails, Cruella Deville has the character's signature half-white and half-black hairstyle, a black dress, and matching, red shoes and gloves. And since even the law can't stop her, Cruella will make her escape to your house with three plush Dalmatian pups.

When you wish upon a star Pinocchio and Jiminy Cricket will become visible to you. Pinocchio, an 8" boy face with black hair, will be wearing red shorts with red suspenders, a yellow shirt with a white collar, a black vest and, a yellow hat with blue trim and red feathers. His little 2" conscience Jiminy travels with Pinocchio as a figurine.

Pocahontas, a 10" Cissette with long dark hair, makes her first appearance in a Latin skin tone. She has been painted especially to look like Pocahontas and has been given a tattoo. Her short dress, made from faux suede with faux fringe, is accented with a black belt. And when she walks in the forest, she does so with her three resin friends, Flit the hummingbird, Meeko the raccoon, and Percy the dog.

Three new Disney ladies also make an appearance this year:
The Snow White and Seven Dwarfs® Gift Set features a 10" Snow White with dark as night hair, a yellow and blue dress with red accented sleeves and her long cape with the stand-up collar. The Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs Set's seven dwarfs look absolutely adorable in vinyl.
Cinderella®, dressed in a dreamy blue and white, tiered gown looks elegant enough for a prince. Her upswept blond hair with the blue ribbon, opera length white gloves and earrings completes the princess perfect picture, as Gus, Suzy and Jaq can tell you. And these tiny figurines have plenty to say, and will mouse chat all day long, if you let them, about the 10" Cinderella.
A 10" vision in a pink and white V-necked gown with portrait collar, Sleeping Beauty® has long, flowing blonde tresses. She looks radiant! And why shouldn't she, she has all the lovely gifts her fairy godmothers have bestowed upon her. All 2" of the Flora, Fauna and Merriweather figurines will watch over Sleeping Beauty and make sure no one ever takes away their gifts.

For even more fun, there are four Disney characters that have also made the journey from the Magic Kingdom. Christopher Robin has returned as well as Blue Fairy and Pinocchio and the 8" Mickey and Minnie Mouse.
