The Disney100 celebration train continues to merrily chug along, bringing in more merchandise to honor the Walt Disney Studios’ 100th anniversary. This time, we bring you news of an upcoming release from Loungefly, the Disney100 Sketchbook Collection. These items are full of character, and the color contrast is eye-catching. Let’s take a look at this artsy collection!
[Note: Loungefly’s Disney100 Sketchbook Collection is expected to release sometime in June 2023 and sold at Loungefly’s official site and select retailers. I have included links to Loungefly’s shop listings for each item, where you can select the “Notify Me” option to receive an email when that piece is available for purchase.]
Loungefly Disney100 Sketchbook Collection – Ear Headband ($30)
This vegan leather-based Ear Headband cleverly positions Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse on different ears with a bow stuffed with art supplies resting between them. Mickey and Minnie are in full color, while their backgrounds remain in black and white.
The Disney and Loungefly logos are embroidered down one side of the band.
The bow can also be removed, adding to the accessory’s versatility.
Loungefly Disney100 Sketchbook Collection – Pin Trader Backpack ($80)
Part of Loungefly’s Sketchbook Collection, this Pin Trader Backpack is shaped like a sketchbook! And as the name suggests, it includes a perforated panel under the front cover that allows you to display your favorite pins through a Hidden Mickey-shaped window. The backpack measures 9 inches wide, 12 inches high, and 4 inches deep.
My favorite detail on this backpack is the bits of PVC attached to the “sketches” to appear as though they are affixed to the bag with tape.
The Disney100 icon is hidden on the backside.
The inside is lined with a print full of Disney character sketches.
And what’s a sketchbook without a pencil? The bag’s rubber zipper pull is shaped like a pencil topped with a mouse-eared eraser. The included trading pin (to help get your pin collection started) is also shaped like a pencil.
Loungefly Disney100 Sketchbook Collection – Flap Wallet ($40)
Style-wise, the 6-inch by 4-inch Flap Wallet resembles the Pin Trader Backpack. The front is decorated with Mickey, Tinker Bell, and Remy artwork (complete with “tape”) and star appliqués.
Additional stars are found on the back, joined by the Disney100 icon and a metal Loungefly plaque.
The wallet has 8 card slots inside, including a clear one for your ID. And the lining used has the same print as that found on the inside of the backpack.
Loungefly Disney100 Sketchbook Collection – Collector Box Pin ($20)
This Collector Box Pin is a great addition to your pin collection and would look quite nice displayed in the Pin Trader Bag. The pin measures 3 inches tall and comes packaged in a window box. Only 1,500 pieces of this limited edition design have been made.
Like several other pieces in this collection, the pin is modeled after a notebook. It features a hinge and clasp, allowing the pin to open and close when desired.
Swing open the pin’s hinge to reveal different character sketches from various eras of the Walt Disney Studios. And fittingly, Tinker Bell is sprinkling pixie dust over the Disney100 icon on the page.
