Well, I'm going to try and pre-order mine.

Yeah that kind of sucks that 'Blu-Ray' doesn't get a plushie. What's up with that?

I guess they're hoping for some Oscar-Nomination hype to boost the sales, though I wouldn't be too sure about "Ponyo" getting a nomination. It's going to be a tough competition this year just to get nominated.

I wonder if the new edition of "Totoro" will also be out along with the Ponyo disc - Disney have discontinued the Totoro DVDs and said they intend to release a new edition (supposedly, along with new editions of Kiki and Castle in the Sky - though these releases are still available through Amazon).

Special editions are such to me that even though I don't find that plush particularly cute and I have yet to see Ponyo, I am tempted to get it ^^

... It'd be nice if they re-released Totoro and Kiki with plushes too (can't think what from Castle in the Sky they could use for a plush -- though they could do the necklace, I suppose).

Ok, when is Disney going to release all of Studio Ghibli's films on bluray, cause I'm really craving a Princess Mononoke bluray at the moment.

They could do a Halicfer plush for Howl's (IIRC that is the name of the fire spirit).

As for Castle in the Sky, they could do a plush of the moving statues.

Ponyo's trailer is on the new TinkerBell movie! It is in the sneek peeks, but it is getting some sort of promotion. I do want this plushie.
