Back in the late 1970-80s, a company named Grollier's ran a subscription service for various Disney collectables. You would sign up and they would send you a piece every other month and bill you half every four weeks. They did a number of series, and this one is from the Magic Memories Series. Each piece was limited to 15,000 pieces, but it's doubtful that the total production number was ever reached. Each stands between six to eight inches tall. Prior to the Walt Disney Classics Collection, these were the best we could hope for as far a actual scenes from Disney films.
This figurine shows Pongo and three of the pups, sitting in front of the television watching their hero, Thunderbolt. The detail of these early pieces is quite nice,notice how they sculpted even the back of the television set!
This will be shipped in it's original styrofoam cube, safely protected, just like it came to me when I ordered it many years ago.
$80 plus actual shipping and insurance.
I will be posting more of these in the next couple of days.
