Hey there, hi there, ho there, Nicole! You’re as welcome as can be to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
Just like Riley from
Inside Out, are you also missing home? I sure am! I can’t wait to return to the magic of the
Happiest Place on Earth! You found a great way to help pass the time while we wait, though. My children and I have also been watching theme park videos online, including the awesome
#DisneyMagicMoments from the
Disney Parks Blog. This has been a wonderful way to bring some pixie dust into our home this summer.
Disney California Adventure Park is my daughter’s favorite theme park, thanks to the awesome
Pixar Pier, which also happens to be home to
Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff! This colorful, rainbow-filled shop is known for Disney- and Pixar-themed apparel, accessories, toys, home décor, hats, and plush. Speaking of plush, I have seen the adorable Bing Bong plush you mentioned in this shop on one of my more recent visits (in January or February). Unfortunately, since both Disney California Adventure Park and Disneyland Park
are still closed right now, there isn’t a way to purchase this stuffed animal from Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff. I also checked shopDisney.com, and unfortunately, there isn’t a Bing Bong plush available at this time. I recommend continuing to check
this special Bing Bong page for the latest Bing Bong merchandise. Currently, I see an adorable
Bing Bong Throw Pillow and an
Inside Out Figure Play Set, which includes a small Bing Bong figurine.
I spoke with a Cast Member, who also recommended checking with Merchandise Guest Services, which can be reached at (877) 560-6477 Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern, or via email at merchandise.guest.service@disneyparks.com. A Cast Member in this department may be able to help you find Bing Bong at the recently reopened
World of Disney store at
Downtown Disney District.
Lastly, you could also try your local Disney Store. The stores near me are temporarily closed, but perhaps a store near you has reopened. If all else fails, you can also search online on eBay or Amazon, though the price will likely be higher than in the store.
I hope this information helps, Nicole! Please stop by with any additional questions… we’re all EARs!
