Vinylmation Offers First Look at Limited Edition Condiment, ‘Have a Laugh’ Series
No, there is nothing wrong with your monitor, these new Vinylmation figures from the Disney Design Group really do have alien-like extensions protruding from their heads. They are in fact the members of the limited edition Vinylmation Condiments series and we’re getting our first look at them courtesy of the official Vinylmation blog. Designed to represent the typical squeeze bottles for your favorite condiments, the colors are dead-on. In fact, we believe the honey bear Vinylmation will probably be worth the price of admission alone.
If you haven’t been keeping up with the Vinylmation blog, now’s a good time to do so. Over the past few days, the blog has been sharing actual photos of Vinylmations from its upcoming Have a Laugh series which features iconic characters from classic Disney films.
UPDATE: 6/10/10 – The Vinylmation Condiments collection will be released at the Disneyland Resort on June 25 (Walt Disney World and DisneyStore.com dates unknown at this time). It will retail for $84.95 and is limited to 2000 pieces.

Did you figure out where he’s from yet? Click on the Show below if you’d like some help.
