I am going to have nightmares about that viking vinylmation. :eek: (The viking hat combo is cute, though.)

[greenbun]

Is the 3" with the gumball machine a little kid blowing a bubble?! That is so adorable! I'm putting the gumball machine onto my birthday list but I can't say I particularly like the viking one... Kinda scary. =S

[minniemose35]

Love the gumball machine but don't know which one is creepier - the viking or that 3" chubby kid!

[joe_of_war]

Love them both but I think Mr. Viking needs to throw on a night shirt or something.

[disneyobsessed808]

Love them both but I think Mr. Viking needs to throw on a night shirt or something.

:agree: i am not a fan of the nipples that are being exposed in urban 6, like the viking or the sumo :look: :rofl:

[W.I.L.D.]

ohhh im loving the viking... looks so mean!! i gotta pick that up when it comes out. i wonder how many they're making of these?

[Brava_Centauri]

Do we know which other designs will be featured as 9" in this set? From the jumbo pins there was also the Devil, Angel, Disco and Cinema. Do we know yet if these will be 9"?

any pics of those pins?

any pics of those pins?

never mind found some pics on ebay. i'm guessing the angel and devil are going to be a 9"/3" set cause they look to have slightly different shapes (and they make sense together)

http://i.ebayimg.com/00/$(KGrHqV,!hsE1Qq5uiJJBNYLt,UyJw~~_12.JPG

and we've seen the star one and cinema in another thread. they were on display at dlr's d-street. pics thanks to panonboard and his thread

[SherKhan72]

WoW, it's been a while since I've actually liked an Urban 9". This is bad news for me. All we need now is to find the edition sizes for all of 'em.

[SirScott99]

Wow, I actually like those more than the 3". I may have to pass though as I'm running out of space

[chevy eleven]

Wow, I actually like those more than the 3". I may have to pass though as I'm running out of space

Come on...there is always space. You may just have to knock down a wall or something to build a shelf, maybe build an addition.:thumbsup:

[kcmesserole]

I really like the gum ball machine. Not sure if I would want the 3" though.

[mbblong01]

I like them both. I think my new motto is, I've Never Met a Vinly I Didn't Like! :rofl:

[Disney143]

I too might be having to get that gumball machine set. I just really like how they used Mickey's ear to form the bubble on the 3", quite clever.

[Layensid71]

i like the concept of the gumball machine, its cool how the little kid is looking up at it

[Eeyore1324]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the Gumball machine and kid and then I love that it's continued into the Mickey Ear combo with the kid's bubble busting on him. I'm really excited for this one, the viking not so much. And out of the series as a whole, I think the Gumball is my favorite. Which is sad because I usually love the Urban sets. This one I just haven't been impressed with though. Regardless, I will hopefully be adding all the gumball pieces to my collection. :)

[Mr. 9 Inch]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the Gumball machine and kid and then I love that it's continued into the Mickey Ear combo with the kid's bubble busting on him.

I noticed that as well...The kid blows the bubble with the 9"...then it bursts in his face with the hat...Good stuff!

[handoe213]

At first I only wanted the Viking but after showing it to my wife I guess Im getting both lol

[jeffztt]

The gumball one is very well designed, and I like how the 3" and the hat set correspond with each other. I'm not sure about the viking, we'll see what it looks like in person. I'm hoping he has some sort of weapon as an accessory.

[SirScott99]

Come on...there is always space. You may just have to knock down a wall or something to build a shelf, maybe build an addition.:thumbsup:

:rofl: hahaha, yeah I suppose that's true. I could always move some stuff off a top shelf that's old and stuff. I'll see, I really really like the gumball one though

[Qsk50]

First post has been updated with the new pictures.
Now to figure out which ones to get. With so many new 9" coming out I really gotta narrow my list way down :(

[Qsk50]

Here's the placeholder for the Gumball 9"/3" set
http://www.disneystore.com/mp/1283635/1000288/

[disneyobsessed808]

I'm probably going to pass on all of these, though the Love and Stars one are cute, I just don't need them. And I don't really have the funds. :lol:

[Qsk50]

The Love one is cute but I think I'm going to try and make that one myself :)
It will look like a kid got a hold of it with a crayola box but I'm gonna give it a shot.

[bashful]

:eek: aww i must be in the minority as i really really love the 9" cinema vinyl! that is a huge must have for me :love:

[kthruz143]

I gotta have the "Love" one and the Gumball. I should have never started collecting 9" cause one you buy 1 it opens the doors to many others

[gochmaster]

Of all the urban 6 9" that r going to be released, my favorite is the angel and devil...i think it looks awesome...i love how the lildevil looks...im sure alot of people are going toget this one...no release date yet...

[Superfro]

Love the gumball one and will probably end up going for it. I really like the camera one, in concept and final product, but I'm not sure I need to own it.

[WDWgirl]

I love the gumball 9"/3" set. It's super cute. The only other one I might get is the film camera one.

[azam527]

I think Ill get the gumball one probably, and maybe the cinema one too lol

I just noticed that Easter Island is on the box. I've wanted that one for a while now but was afraid it was one of the scrapped vinyls. This will be on my need to get it list.

[peppermint]

I want the Love, Cinema and Star vinyls. Now I just have to wait for them to be released.

[centavo03]

I like the love one! It has pretty colors

yeah! wasn't it initially part of the urban 3 or the urban 4 set? i was eagerly waiting for it to be announce and after seeing the prototype being auctioned off at trade city, i thought it was scrapped and on the artist floor. really looking forward to it's release! hope it looks as great as it does on the box!

I really like all the designs for these, except maybe the Viking (the nipples freak me out a little). I don't think any of them are must-haves for me, but I could certainly change my mind after seeing them in person!!

[disneyobsessed808]

the stars and love design are cute, but i don't really need them. i like the design of the "love" one the most, but i loathe the fact that it says "love" on it.

i'll be in disneyland that weekend, but i was hoping for a disney afternoon or monorail poster release. oh wells.

[VMkrazy]

Yay!!! finally a release date! Another DS.com release party coming up!!! Might pick up 2 of these babies (viking and star bright)! wooohhooo!
Guys, you might want to consider getting the star bright since thats the lowest LE number in Urban 6 9"... only 600.

It could be a LE of 100 and I still won't buy it :rofl:

Nah but really the only one I really like is the bottom right one but I'm trying to avoid buying anymore Urban vinyls for space reason plus if I change my mind I can get it in September because I know it will still be around

[drudawg]

I think "Light Meter" is awesome (bottom right) for those techie/movie/electronic geeks out there (me). Plus, I've been staring at that thing every time I walk in front of D-Street (or stand in line on release day).

I never buy Urban 9s but I fill the urge to get the Light Meter one. It's retro cool! Reminds me of the 1950s!

Was at DLR D-Street today and seemed to be plenty available. Then again, you also have to account for WDW and DS.COM. I'd say buy them online while you can :)

I wasn't going to buy any of these and wait to spend my money on Park 6 9" :look:

I just couldn't help it. I could hear Love and Star calling me :look:

Nope- couldn't resist! Got all 4

We made it out to DStreet in DLR and I got the Light Meter/Electric Light and Crabbyduck got the Viking. They had plenty of all four when we were there. I can't wait to open mine up and put it on display!

None of my local stores carry 9" but you may want to check with the stores closest to you. I know a few people have mentioned they are able to buy 9" at their stores.

[Swoony]

The Times Square Disney Store has the Angel/Devil, the Moai and the Viking.

[viper206]

Awesome! Thanks! i checked in there yesterday and didnt see them!

[lugia137]

Does anyone else think that the Devil and Angel Vinylmation were done in bad taste ? or is it just me ? I'm not a religious person but from some reason these Vinyl creations didn't sit right with me.

[vinylcreation]

First off, Vinylcreation is copyrighted. :tap: Second, I actually like the set. I'd buy it if I could afford it.

[Ticklyvinylmonkee]

Not at all. They are just the good and the bad. Like in many cartoons and disney cartoons also, the little devil and little angel appear talking to the cartoon character and trying to make it do something bad or good. They are just vinyls.

[Natvinyl]

I like the devil one. I would love to be able to get just the devil one, the angel doesn't look that good to me

[Ghost Host]

My only issue with it is why they made so many? The angel looks bad. The devil isn't horrible but I just cannot fathom why anybody thought these would fly off the shelves. They'll be around long enough to make us forget Bo Peep. haha

[Toad_Passenger]

I like the devil one. I would love to be able to get just the devil one, the angel doesn't look that good to me

If you don't mind buying a scrapper, the guy with the garbage ones from Hong Kong sells just the Devil from time to time.

[JTChief82]

Yeah the Devil is definitely the better on in the Combo.

[JDub11]

I had heard rumor someplace before the set came out that the devil was supposed to sparkle like the pin did. I was planning on picking up the set just because of that, even if I ended up painting over the angel. :lol:

Then I was hoping it would end up discounted in the outlets but now with that 20% discount at DS.com I'm tempted.... must resist, just buy it.... patience, ....but it's 20% and free shipping!! NO, you shouldn't.....

Oh, the turmoil, it's almost too much..... ;-)

[Natvinyl]

Thanks for the advice. If I found one not so battered maybe I'll risk it
