I've noticed the Japan parks have a larger variation in headgear as opposed to the US, that might be why there's less of a focus on producing a large amount of Minnie ears specifically? The Japanese are also very matchy matchy when it comes to their park outfits so that might play a part too ?

[@tdrexplorer]

yep!

[@oliviatobin9230]

Hi Chris!! Just recently got back from Tokyo including 4 days at TDR! We were there the day the memory go round merch dropped so we snagged that tote bag that sold out, thanks to your guide explaining standby passes!! Overall had an incredible time and thank you for sharing your love for these parks, and inspiring us to go explore them ourselves ❤

[@bold12b]

Love all this old school logos. The little mail box stamp set is so cute

[@tdrexplorer]

It really is!

[@77Scarlet]

I had a stamp set growing up. This made my heart melt ❣️

[@ViolenziaDomestica]

Happy Canada Day, Chris! I can’t choose what I love more! Definitely the clear file art and the curtains. I was sad they didn’t have a retro themed large tote but you can’t win them all. The bucket hat is giving Randy River vibes 😂

[@tdrexplorer]

I haven't thought about Randy River for YEARS! That's where I'd get my JNCO Jeans!

[@lefuj]

I definitely know what you're saying about the ears! In the US most of the designs are specifically themed to something so each pair has a lot going on but the Tokyo ones (while some do have a theme) seem to be mostly based on aesthetic. I personally prefer the simplicity of the Tokyo ones 😊

[@tdrexplorer]

I like the simplicity of the ones here too. It goes with more outfits! I'm all for multi-use haha

[@caitlinburt9770]

Thank you TDR explorer (Chris) for this wonderful video! I love all of the merchandise that you purchased in this particular video. For me, I like the postcards, clear files and stamp set best… ok basically all of it then aha! Once again another highly enjoyable video, can’t wait till the next one. Hope everyone is having a brilliant week! Xx

[@karinameza2636]

👋Hi Chris! So I have been commenting on a few of your videos 🎞️and I love what u do so much and don’t stop doing what you love! Thank you for posting videos like this and it really helps when I go on trips 🎢🗼anywhere here in Japan 🇯🇵where I actually live, and it would mean the world 🌍to me if you’ll give me a 📢🗣️shoutout!!💓And to anyone who’s reading this right now just letting you know your worth it and you mean so so much to a lot of people. ❤ NEVER GIVE UP❤

[@heathersandstrom5165]

Thanks for sharing all the retro goodness and happy belated birthday 🎉!! Hope it was a good one!

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you!! 😊

[@kc_143]

Belated Happy Birthday Chris! Love the retro merchandise! Good stuff! I never thought that I would like those coasters. Great buy! Can’t believe the 90s is retro now. It feels just like yesterday. LOVE your Spice Girls shirt! I remember the logo on their first album. I still have the cassette tape. 😅😊🥰 I wish the retro stuff will still be there when we go to Tokyo Disneyland. On another note, I hope you can do a video at Universal Beijing. It would be interesting to know and see your take on there. All the best Chris!!!

[@gogobabydoll1697]

I really loved your videos with the Today guides! It was nice to see all the cool new merch in one paper. I wanna get that shirt and bucket hat too. And I gotta have that stamp set!! ^_^

[@leahvasquez786]

I’m going to Tokyo Disneyland at the end of the month!! A few years ago we moved away and we were unable to go. Now that we are back on a vacation, we will go and have fun! I can’t wait.

[@tessfabled4115]

7:45 tfw the opening day plushies have the best design by far (amount of detail/texture)

[@micchan_7]

OMG. I have to get these. Thank you so much for sharing. Your video bring back so much memories. 5:20 The smaller blue clear folder is the pattern of the paper bags of souvenier shops in 80s or 90s.

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you for confirming the paper bag design!

[@brclyn]

🤣Hawaiian, dad shirts. My son is offended. You frame your clear files? No, nope, definitely NOT obsessed at all. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@mmh290]

That Mickey headband is so adorable! It would be hard for me to pass up as well!😂

[@burgerburger2484]

I fall in love in folders set after seeing ur love for them… 😅🎉 love ur videos!!❤

[@Mrswoo42]

Your videos definitely SPICE up my life!! 😂❤️ your shirt is so amazing

[@ElyseExplosion]

I'm like two weeks late but that mystery popcorn figure HAS to be my homeboy Big Al!!!

[@soitsmelaura]

I luv the all of us collection … the badge plushies for sure … fun new outfit 🥳

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you!

[@alliekuma4234]

Omg loved the outfit reveal! Good choice!

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you for watching!

[@leotransstory2391]

I like the Duffy and friends shirt but like you said just with the top words and the characters I love your merch videos Chris hope your well

[@kellymcdaniel6272]

I need a stationery collaboration video with you and Job’s journals💜

[@tdrexplorer]

Maybe one day!

[@MissFanCulture]

The aesthetic 😭❤️ want some of this collection so bad

[@tdrexplorer]

It's so wonderful isn't it???

[@sugarfree2526]

I'm going to TDR on January 2024. Hopefully there will be some 40th anniversary merchandise for me when I'm there

[@ReturnOf2008]

I love your reaction is all of our reaction to cute Merch :P it’s one of the only up sides not living near a Disney park

[@PrismYuuzuki]

I’ve been wanting to get those Ariel ears. Might have to pop in.

[@tdrexplorer]

They're pretty!

[@nezuminora9528]

The bucket hat would have definitely gone with the spice girls shirt too (I had that same one in 1998).

[@astrowolvez]

Omg when you said that blind box was 5600 yen I lost it! 🤣 But then I realized it was one that was the entire set.

[@thespyrobrother4367]

Uggggh I can't believe I missed the From All of Us shirt that I missed when I was there last week. I swear I looked all over but didn't see it! :(

[@CrystalLynn1988]

Happy Belated Birthday!

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you!

[@stacyscooby8488]

Amazing video excited to go to Japan . Do they have American prices too still learning the yen price’s going soon

[@lydiapurple]

I think the mystery popcorn figure is the one bear from country bears?

[@tdrexplorer]

mmhmmmmmmmm

[@tedisoriano1360]

OMG!! Is the surprise popcorn toy Baymax? 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@tdrexplorer]

I think it's something else!

[@sopranoisthelove]

@@tdrexplorer Is it Baloo?

[@kpainan]

Hi Chris, Tks for the video. can you go into these stores without entering Disney sea theme park or they are only accessible when you are in the park?

[@kooshballinator]

Would love to see a video comparing tokyo disneysea and land! And how to choose 😅

[@tdrexplorer]

I have an article that I wrote a while back! tdrexplorer.com/tokyo-disneyland-or-disneysea/

[@jackeng7129]

thanks for showing the mens shirts and prices

[@TheShibaCookie]

My dream is to do exactly what you do! I want to go to every disney park in the world❤

[@assistantematernelletourno3932]

merci beaucoup

[@ahmedbinemad86]

Sir ! When do you they will open the new project in Disney sea Tokyo !

[@princejoshthemeparksmei-tr4046]

Can't Believe that the Mickey Mouse Revue Merchandise appears Better at Tokyo Disneyland's 40th Anniversary than Walt Disney World's 50th Anniversary.

[@annaburch3200]

I got a WEIRD Mickey pin in a random lot of pins I got from Ebay and was like, "what the heck is this strange Mickey face"? OMG! You showed the Mickey Review curtains and that's it!!! It's the Mickey tragedy face from the curtains!! It all makes sense, now! It's still a weird looking pin, but at least now I know! THANK YOU!!!

[@tdrexplorer]

Mystery solved!

[@Januaryangel013]

I live in the USA so can't get any merch from Disney sea but have to say Duffy is so cute really like teddy bears and teddy bear themed items.

[@tdrexplorer]

He's quite adorable

[@shadowatcher228]

@tdrexplorer thank you so much for posting this. I found your videos when I was in Japan last year. I’m back agaik now and will be heading to Tokyo Disneyland and Disney Sea in a few weeks and can’t wait to get some of this great merchandise. Question. I am an XL in the U.S. what size do you’d think I need in Japan and to they sell it there?

[@tdrexplorer]

It really depends on your body type. As I mentioned in the video, for myself I'm usually a Medium (M) in North America and I go up one size to Large (L) here in Japan. The general rule of thumb is go one size up in Japan. You may fit an XL (called LL) but it depends. A size up would be 3L (XXL) but not all shirts go up to that size, it varies depending on the line.

[@shadowatcher228]

@@tdrexplorer thank you so much! I hope they have the logo shirt in my size when I go. Last year they had this awesome Mickey waffle shirt but it only went up to L. Crossing my fingers :) have a great rest of your Sunday!

[@nuryulianto2009]

Anyone knows why mermaid lagoon theater king triton concerts is not operating anymore?

[@katieford5752]

Also omg want that Spice Girls shirt

[@otaking3582]

I guess I have to contemplate which is more expensive - going to Japan and TDS so that I could buy these, or dealing with scalpers on Buyee and their insane shipping fees...

[@jlbnerdy]

The only thing this video is missing is a photo of Jnco Chris inserted into it.

[@emiruth9443]

i think bucket hats are already sold out in figaros!

[@LorettaCorona]

hi Chris i want everything but like you I would buy the clear files of both lines you showed us and a plushie of the 30 th anniversary mickey 🐣

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you for watching and commenting as always!

[@Ester_amoporqueelemeamou1o]

Do they still have nemo merchandise? 😊

[@vincently1995]

Wow

[@tdrexplorer]

Which part? haha

[@LittleFishReviews]

Hmm, if I had to say anything about the ears it's that they're kinda low key. Like you could wear them to any event on or off Disney property if you wanted to and you can match outfits, whereas the themed ears the USA has may be a little more difficult to wear outside the parks, and even then they are more a mood than an accessory, if that makes sense? Is this new merch only for the summer? my parents might be going in october and the Duffy and Friends birthday merch is so cute! Probably not though, since Halloween merch will be moving in at that point, right? Thank you for another amazing vid! I hope someday I'll be able to visit.

[@rct3isepic]

Ok, I haven't been able to find Any definitive evidence of them existing, but other than the nanoblocks set did they ever make models of Hotel Hightower? I think I see some in a video from a few years ago but the person filming was more interested in the New York City Preservation Society trashcans than what looked like models. Did such an item ever exist or am I just seeing it that way when it isn't?

[@Undrave]

ZOMG I hope I can get the 20 000 league and Aquatopia Tomica in November! I actually went out of my way to order the Storm Rider tomica from Mandarake! Cost m 30$ and I have no regrets :p

[@user-sn8cx6sw7g]

Is the an oggie boogie popcorn mystery character?

[@tdrexplorer]

hmmm, I don't think it is!

[@SungtaeBookLover]

Nice Spice Girls shirt. I used to listen to them.

[@tdrexplorer]

I still listen to them almost every day haha

I thought I was the only one who always say "I gotta buy something!" or "Some damage gonna happen to my credit card today!" or "What you guys doing to me?" every time I visit any 'interesting' stores here in Japan Keep on shopping, Chris! PS: I love your Spice Girls T-shirt. I'm a huge fan of them

[@Camquarters]

Just leaned that Disneyland doesn’t even control Tokyo Disney and is owned by the Oriental Land Company. Why I think the merch always looks so differently packaged etc compared to other Disneylands.
