More gift reminders!


Many SKU numbers are available in the =New 2003= gallery, you'll need them since Disney usually can't locate several items if you call their merchandise line! You can use the Disney Merchandise order phone number which is in the database section to place orders.

The Santa Jessica pin has been released in WDW, it is an open edition and sells for $6.50. There will also be one released in Disneyland on the 7th along with the Jessica Diva pin - Open Edition, Retail Price: $8.50 and again - you can find the SKU's in the same gallery.

Still a mystery is the "Jessica Drawn Pretty" pin, LE 1500 and will retail $8.50. It will be released on December 14th and there will be a photo in the gallery as soon as I find one.

One HOT item is the Jessica vinyl statue from Medicom Toys. It was previously listed on here for sale at www.HLJ.com but they have sold out, there are some still for sale at:
http://shop.store.yahoo.com/dragonballzcentral/index.html and at
http://www.xl-shop.com/

They also have Roger and Benny still for sale. Another item to mention is the Roger Rabbit Car Toon Spin Holiday House - part of the Disney Village series. It is a Christmas themed light-up house - call Disneyland for that one.

Christmas gift ideas for Jessica fans!


Christmas is just around the corner, again, and this past year Jessica fans were blessed with an array of new merchandise.

Most likely there is something on the list you haven't gotten yet, or maybe you are shopping for a Jessica fan, so here is a review of what's available, what's a good buy and what Jessica stuff is still on the way.

We'll start with the first release way back from January, the Jessica Rabbit vinyl statue from Medicom Toys - Japan. This is probably one of the best Jessica items released this year. The color and sculpt are dead-on and the price is right. You can order it from www.HLJ.com and it should run you no more than $40 with shipping. Roger and Benny were released last year and stock is limited so pick them up soon.

Countless pins were released this year and there are more to come. On November 24th Christmas Jessica will be released in WDW. Jessica is wearing a Christmas hat and decked out in a Christmas mini-skirt. This is an open edition pin and will sell for $6.50. Disneyland finally recognizes Jessica as a Diva on December 7th with the Diva Jessica pin, which will sell for $8.50 and may be a Limited Edition.

Other pins that are worth picking up from eBay are "Love, Jessica," "Jessica 15th Anniversary," "Nurse Jessica," and "Surfboard Jessica." Prices range on eBay but I think more than $20 a pin is too much.

Christmas with Jessica Rabbit !


Following an empty Christmas last year, there are two new Christmas Jessica items this year; one already released and one coming soon.

ON SALE NOW - The Jessica Rabbit Mistletoe Christmas Hat. Quite a unique item, this Christmas hat is white trimmed with embroidered kiss marks around - one kiss mark saying "Jessica Rabbit." Jessica is embroidered on the front from her "Naughty or Nice" ornament pose saying "Happy Holidays." The hat has a large green and red spiral, and at the top is the mistletoe with another Jessica picture. It sells for $28 at Disney's Days of Christmas. You can order it directly from the store by calling the number in our database section. Other merchandise lines do not have it on file and so far that is the only place selling this hat. Even they didn't know they had it until I made them look for it.

On November 24 in Walt Disney World, a Christmas Jessica pin will be released. Jessica is wearing a Christmas hat and decked out in a Christmas mini-skirt. This is an open edition pin and will sell for $6.50.

Also coming in November is the DIVA Jessica pin. Finally recognized by Disney as a diva - Jessica shimmers in this pin - similar to the All American Liberty Bell pin - Jessica sits atop a heart with the word DIVA below. It will be released in Disneyland and is Limited to 2500 pins.

New - Roger & Jessica Statue/Watch


Only found in Walt Disney Parks and Resorts is the EXCLUSIVE LIMITED EDITION Roger Rabbit 15th Anniversary statue with watch. Rumor is this item was originally scheduled for release in March, but for some reason, it was delayed until now! Limited to only 1000 pieces, the price is $125 - not including shipping. Roger and Jessica Rabbit are out for a ride in Benny the Cab. Roger is at the wheel with sexy glittering Jessica at his side. Benny is grimacing and has his name license plate in back.

The watch face has 15th Anniversary logo with Roger trying to squeeze through. Roger has painted the numbers and paint splotches around the dial. Back also has logo, Limited Edition with sequential number and edition size. The watch can be displayed on the back of the statue over the spare tire, the band slides into slots at back so only watch face shows. The figurine is made of cast resin and painted in high gloss and matte finish. The watch band is genuine leather. Piece comes with original paperwork and certificate of authenticity.

Important: If you are calling the Disney Merchandise line, which is the only way to get this without going to the parks, make sure you give them this SKU number: 11211166

It took me forever to track this down as they couldn't find it on file ! ! !

The Jessica Rabbit Pressers


Each sheet contained around fourteen images. The Jessica Pressers were one in a series of three sets. The second set contained Roger Rabbit and the third included many of the other characters from the movie. The other two sets of pressers are just as rare - if not - more.

To use, the transfer sheet was applied to a surface and one of the images could be rubbed with the blue wand it came with, leaving the image on the surface. The sheet is about 7"x 4".

Originally selling for $1.25, The Who Framed Roger Rabbit Pressers featuring Jessica were produced in 1987 by Special Productions Lisse/Holland and © The Walt Disney Company and Amblin Entertainment, Inc.

DVD Overview



What exactly to expect on the new ROGER DVD
Reviewed by Colin Jacobson
(March 4, 2003)

DVD One includes The Roger Rabbit Shorts. These include "Tummy Trouble" (seven minutes, 45 seconds), "Rollercoaster Rabbit" (seven minutes, 50 seconds), and "Trail Mix-Up" (eight minutes, 52 seconds).

Next we get Who Made Roger Rabbit, a new featurette hosted by voice actor Charles Fleischer. During this 10-minute and 57-second program, Fleischer leads us through the film's production and gives us the basics about its creation. Since it seems meant for kids and newbies, it provides a decent little introduction.

DVD One continues with Trouble in Toontown, a new "set-top" game. This involves some simple activities like shooting pies at weasels. It seems bland but mildly enjoyable, though it includes no reward for successful completion.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Vista Series Review


Find out what's included in this fantastic NEW DVD set.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Vista Series Reviewed by John J. Puccio - 03/2003

The first time out Buena Vista provided little beyond the film on their DVD. With this Vista Series special edition spread over two discs, matters change considerably. BV call disc one "Family Friendly," meaning, I suppose, that most families with children will want to watch its full-screen format because it fills up the whole TV screen, plus it includes several cartoon supplements. I'm not convinced of the logic of calling anything resembling pan-and-
scan "family friendly" and find the phrase "family friendly" rather condescending toward children, but it seems to be the mind set of many of the studios these days.
