I'd really like to pick up those signs shown on the gallery website... and I hope there's more!

Anybody have any predictions about how quickly this stuff will sell out?

When we went to the Tiki Room Anniversary product release, the line went all the way down Main Street and although we were 12th in line, we didn't actually get inside the shop til 30 minutes after opening. Almost all of the merchandise sold out before people at the back of the line could get in... I'm wondering if this will be the same deal...

I hope not. I really hope that Disney has learned from the Tiki Room event...there is a high demand for these products.

Anyone going today?

What items sold out and what is still available?

themur, as of last weekend they still had the Fantasyland shirts, the tin signs set, and small prints of the Avanzino artwork as well as the Frontierland artwork. Of course, the original Avanzino and the set of 4 canvas giclees by Daily/Kidney are still available, as well.
