It’s been 60 years since the Walt Disney Company released an animated movie featuring a magical boy who never wanted to grow up as he battled an evil pirate captain. With the new Peter Pan Blu-Ray in stores now, the Disney Store has teamed up with Diamond Select Toys to release a new Minimate series based on the film. Two boxed sets featuring Pete, Cubby, Tootle and Nibs along with Michael, John, Captain Hook and Tinkerbell will include a flying base to pose the figs above the ground. Also there will be a Jolly Roger set with Wendy and Smee. Each Minimate figure stands 2 inches tall with 14 points of articulation. Look for all three sets to arrive at Disney Stores and on
DisneyStore.com in early March.
