Disney Store - Feature Maui Figure

I actually got this guy before Christmas but I have only just got round to re-organizing things this week to find a place for him to go on display, so finally today I have de-boxed him!

He is the Feature Maui figure from the Disney Store (from the film Moana) and he is huge! It was a bit of a shock when he arrived, haha!

Anyway, he is really awesome. He's nice and chunky and comes with his magical fish hook which lights up when you press the button on his front. He also says several phrases when you press the button, such as "Do you know who Maui is?", "Only the greatest demigod in all the South Pacific", "With his magical fish hook he slowed down the sun", "And I should know, haha, because I'm Maui", "Haaaaaaaa", "Hahah, let me show you how it's really done". He also sings a large part of his song, "You're Welcome" which is fab 💓

His arms can move up and down at the shoulder and bend at the elbow; and his legs can move forwards and backwards and out to the sides. His necklace is an actual plastic piece rather than just painted on, but you can't remove it. The skirt is made from a rubbery material and quite flexible. The details of his tattoo's are awesome; and he comes with a little "magical" sponge which you are supposed to rub on specific spots of his body to make more tattoo's appear but I have tried that a few times and haven't been able to get it to work yet so I'm clearly not getting the temperature of the water right. However, I'm not too fussed about that anyway as the rest of him is awesome enough 😀

Disney Store "Inside Out" Figure Set

I missed out on getting this set of Inside Out figures from the Disney Store and really regretted it, but I was lucky enough to find them recently secondhand for only £6 including postage! Bargain! They have been played with so a couple of them have the odd scuff on them but I'm not worried about that.

The figures in the set are Bing Bong, Joy, Sadness, Fear, Disgust and Anger. They are all really lovely and detailed and the colours are nice and bright. They all have really great expressions, especially Fear 😄 Bing Bong is definitely my favourite from the set.

Disney Store Ratatouille "Django" Action Figure

As promised, here is the fourth and final figure from the exclusive set released by the Disney Store when the film was released. This one is Remy's dad, Django. The other figures available in this range were Remy, Emile and Git.

Again, the box is the same as for the other figures but with pictures of Django on it; and like all the others there is the little cardboard divider in the box with a background scene from the film printed on it which is great for photos. Django's raft pieces consist of two bottles with a little wooden platform linking them together. As with the other figures, Django is really nicely detailed. His facial expression is awesome; I love his teeth and his droopy nose, they captured the look of him being an old rat really well. Again, like the others, his is slightly poseable too. The final picture here shows all the raft pieces from the different sets connected together to make the one larger raft. Its pretty awesome! I will take some better pictures of it soon with it all set up with all the figures on it too.

Disney Store Ratatouille "Git" Action Figure

Git was the third to arrive of my Disney Store exclusive Ratatouille action figures. They originally retailed at £10 in store when the film was first released but I got each of mine on eBay for significantly less than that.

The box is the same as the others, just with pictures of Git on instead; and he has the same little cardboard scene divider inside the box which is neat for a photo background. His raft pieces consist of a big ladle with a sail and a knife for steering. It was almost impossible to get them to stand up for the photos, I had to secure them with blu-tac. Like Remy and Emile, he is really detailed as a figure with a lovely butch shape and slightly poseable like the others too. The final figure in the set, Django, arrived this morning so I will share pictures of him tomorrow 👍😉

Disney Store Ratatouille "Emile" Action Figure

The second of my Disney Store exclusive Ratatouille figures came yesterday. This one is the loveable Emile. I won't go into huge detail about the box and stuff like I did in my post about the Remy figure, as its basically the same but with pictures of Emile on instead. I did forget to mention in the Remy post though that these figures were released back when the film first came out, they aren't available in store now (a few people asked on my Insta account so just wanted to clear that up). As you can see from Emile's box, they originally retailed at £10 each which I think was actually a great price for how detailed they are. I am pleased to say though that I paid under £10 for each of mine on eBay 👌

Like the Remy figure, Emile is really lovely and detailed. His face is so cute and he has his cute round belly 😍 He is slightly poseable; its not a massive range of movement but acceptable enough for some decent photos etc. 

As with the Remy figure, there was the same little cardboard divider in the box with a scene from the film printed on it which is cute to use as a background for photos.

As mentioned in my review of the Remy figure, there are four figures in the series (Remy, Emile, Git and Django) and each of them come with pieces which go together to make a raft but that can also be used individually with the characters too. Emile comes with a broken tea cup and a spoon for a paddle. I did use a little bit of blu-tac to keep the spoon in position for photos but with a little more patience it might be possible to pose it without 😜 My Git figure actually arrived today so I'll hopefully add up a review and pics of him tomorrow; so its just Django I am waiting on now!
