Disney Tops Season's Best Sellers & Surprise Hits

As holiday festivities near, shoppers across the U.S. have made it clear Disney is at the top of their lists. Posting double digit growth in retail sales over 2005, Disney products such as the Disney Mix Max media player and toys and electronics inspired by Disney*Pixar's Cars, Pirates of the Caribbean and The Little Mermaid have posted strong sales at key retailers such as Target and Toys 'R' Us and online at DisneyShopping.com. Surprise best-sellers have also emerged such as the Disney Pix line of digital cameras and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Playset -- both of which have sold out several times this season.

Sales of electronics and toys continued to top retail trends and have been a driving force behind Disney's holiday success. Just launched in October, the Disney Mix Max media player which plays full length movies, CDs and jpegs on a 2.2 LCD screen has outpaced sales projections both internally and at retail. Disney also expanded its line of digital media players this year featuring an upgraded version of the Disney Mix Stick MP3 player which has doubled in retail sales this holiday season over prior year. With a new roster of digital product offerings, Disney quickly climbed to the top of the market and ranks as the #3 flash-based MP3 brand by unit volume in the mass market for the month of November, according to research from NPD Inc. The Disney Pix line of digital cameras took Disney and retailers by surprise selling more than 150,000 units at Best Buy and Toys R Us since its introduction in the fall and selling out as quickly as shelves were re-stocked.

Millions of Disney toys have also been checked off the list. The National Retail Federation estimates that 48 percent of consumers will buy toys this holiday season, and has named Disney Princess and The Little Mermaid among the season's Top 10 toys for girls. In celebration of the October Platinum Edition DVD release of The Little Mermaid, more than 2,500 Little Mermaid products are now available at retail with such best-sellers as The Little Mermaid Magical Talking Salon. Overall, Little Mermaid products have exceeded sales projections at retail surpassing the success of a similar program inspired by Cinderella's Platinum Edition DVD last year. For preschoolers, toys based on the popular Disney Channel series Mickey Mouse Clubhouse have taken off at retail, among the most popular are the singing plush Name That Song Mickey and the nearly sold-out Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Playset.

With recent DVD releases, products inspired by Disney*Pixar's Cars and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest have been flying off shelves. Mattel die cast cars featuring characters from the film have sold more than 27 million units to date. Cars party assortment from Hallmark ranks as the #1 best-selling within the industry. The book Cars: Interactive Play a Sound from Publications International tops Target's holiday gift guide for boys and has posted strong sales across retailers. Disney bedding has also experienced triple digit growth thanks to new Cars and Little Mermaid patterns introduced this fall at retailers such as Kmart. Demand for Pirates products soared as the DVD broke all records selling 10.5 million copies in its first week. Among the best-sellers are character action figures and the Ultimate Black Pearl Playset from Zizzle. From Buena Vista Games, Cars and Pirates of the Caribbean ranked among the Top 10 GBA titles in retail sales for the month of November.

For tweens, the Hannah Montana video game for the Nintendo DS shot to the top within weeks of its debut ranking #13 among such Nintendo DS hits as Sim Pets 2 and Final Fantasy III. The new line of Hannah Montana apparel and accessories has also experienced phenomenal sell-through at Macy's. While Mattel's High School Musical DVD board game is proving to be a must-have topping Toys R Us' Season's Surprise Hits list. Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer from Hyperion Books for Children, the 5th title in the worldwide best-selling Artemis Fowl series, has propelled sales of the entire series at retail and created momentum that has the series remaining among the top books on the New York Times best seller list throughout the holiday season. The series has sold over 8 million units in the US since its 2001 launch.
