Tell me about it! I didn't think I'd get them. I think they actually "sold out" a few times - when I was checking Instagram at around 9.40am people were complaining that they couldn't check out their items. I was really worried because I had sent my dad out to put money in my bank account about an hour earlier, and I didn't think I'd get them in time. I've been checking the website just out of curiosity and I think they're back in stock as we speak. Disney has seriously got to stop underestimating how much people love this movie

my scar and mufasa came today!! i knew they were smaller but they are a perfect size to sit on top of my wardrobe. hopefully gonna get rafiki next week when i get paid. their details are just amazing especially mufasa

I'm delighted that we've finally got another Mufasa plush, especially one as movie accurate as this... but I really wish he was 18" like the 2011 Adult Simba and Scar plushies. I dunno why they opted to make him smaller. People would still pay for a larger plush.

to those who haven't noticed, the plush are now available on the US Disney Store site as well. ordering mine now!! <3

I was actually just gonna check today! I NEED THAT NEW MUG! Thank you for informing us Gaze <3

My three just arrived this morning. I was still in bed when the delivery driver dropped them off. I have to admit, I was pretty surprised by how small they actually are! I knew that they weren't as big as the Adult Simba or Nala from the Diamond Edition range, but I didn't expect them to be this tiny. I suspected them to be around the same height as the UK version of the Scar plush, and what I know to be a 'medium' plush from the Disney Store. I haven't measured them but Mufasa and Scar can't be taller than 12" or 13", and Rafiki is probably around 10" or 11". I just can't understand why they made them this small, but I must say that they've grown on me tremendously since they got here.


I wouldn't mind having a full cast of characters who were this size. I think the smallness allows for more detail. Mufasa is a really stunning plush, he looks far better than the 2011 Adult Simba. I love his big pink nose! Scar is also a massive improvement from his 2011 counterpart, and I never had a Rafiki before but I think he looks just the same as his other plush. He's adorable though.

Here's a comparison of the 2011 UK version of Scar, the smaller one of the two, and the brand new Scar (2011 on the left, new Scar on the right.)


It might just be me, and it could be down to Scar's age, but I think the new Scar looks miles better than the 2011 version. His face in particular is so well detailed and vibrant. The old Scar has a more movie accurate fur colour, but the new Scar looks better with this lighter shade. I dunno, it could be down to the newness but I think they've done an excellent job with the design of him. And this Mufasa is a massive improvement from the Jumbo version, which, while adorable, looks nothing like Mufasa imo. I love the expression on his face. It's full of warmth and super cute.

It's a shame they've got to be this small, but I'm very pleased with this new range and I'm looking forward to seeing if they'll bring out anybody else. I'll certainly be purchasing them.
