That is a cool looking mug, John!...Another possible sales location, was the original "Pieces O' Eight" souveneir shop at the exit of the POTC ride. It used to have a mini arcade with a couple pirate shooting games, fortune red fortune teller, and the personalized pirate coin machine, that you could put up to 16 or so characters/numbers on a piece of eight. The coins were very similar to the coins that used to be glued to the rocks, inside the ride at the treasure area.

Here as promised, my "action Figs"...hah

The Hook Doll is a Limited Edition Masters of Malice, with deluxe clothing, and is extremely detailed. The "Captain of the Wicked Wench" doll is my all time favorite character from the ride, who has since been replaced by Barbossa in the POTC attraction. To me, the original Captain, aka Blackbeard, had much more character, and his one liners were badazz! I do miss that part of the ride immensely, and wish there was better photos, posters, or any other collectible of Blackbeard aboard the Wicked Wench for collectors. They do have a WDDC figurine, but it just doesn't capture his look...

Now onto my other Disney items. I'll start with a vintage cardboard cut-out record set (78's) called "Your Trip To Disneyland", manufactured by Mattel in 1954-1955ish...Considered a Musical Map, as the records take you through each of the lands. When unfolded, it spans 41 inches long, and over 14 inches in height. The five records are "Intro to Disneyland","Tomorrowland","Fantasyland","Frontierland", and "Adventureland"...It also has cut out characters similar to paper dolls. each record plays a few minutes long(i have mp3s of it).


I'll have a few more things soon...
