Okay, technically this counts as one since it is a set. Every year under our Christmas tree we recreate WDW. We have the Monorail, Castle, Haunted Mansion, Spaceship Earth, Dumbo ride, Tea Cups ride, Tree of Life and Space Mountain. Each ride is activated when the Monorail passes. Each attraction has sound and movement. The Haunted Mansion says "Welcome foolish mortals"! We cannot wait to put the display up every year. We spend hours "playing" with them and setting everything up just right. We bought them a few years back and they are no longer made. It is something we hope to pass onto our son once he gets married, that's if I can part with them!
Okay I am cheating, another favorite was the set of keys from POC ride, the ones the dog holds in his mouth at the end. We bought them on our honeymoon in 1995.
Okay, I will shut up now
Next Trip: POP Century...September 16th to September 26th!
My wife bought me a mickey mouse statue that is dressed like a black belt in karate. At the time I had recently started karate and when she gave it to me when we got home it made me realize how much faith she had in me that I would get my black belt. Incidentley I am now a 2nd degree black belt and still going strong.
Oooooo --- how long ago was that?? I have a kiddo who just earned his orange belt and we were just talking yesterday about him sticking with it through black belt. I would LOVE to get him one of those! Congrats on being a 2nd degree black belt -- I have such an appreciation for what that takes after watching a few rounds of testing for the lower belts!!

My DH bought me a bronze "partners" statue for mother's day and I actually like it more than anything else we've ever gotten from WDW. We also have the small marble coasters from "Leave a Legacy" w/my in-laws photos on it. Something I will always treasure!
I know you said narrow it down to one, but I truly have two that hold equal places in my heart.
First, a Mickey and Minnie wedding frame that holds our Polynesian Resort - Wishes! Wedding photo. July 13, 2006
Second, a "2000" snow globe...4 parks, one world.
Maybe when we go in 13 days (celebrating my DDs sweet 16th) we will have to come up with another "favorite".

My Ariel character sketch is one of my fav purchases. So is the throw blanket my pins are on. It's the one in the stores you canbuy when you spend $50. It has the park icons and mickey on it. It is true WDW to me.
