We haven't been into a Dizzney store in a dogs age, seeing as there's no Stitch.
When we have gone into the new TCP Dizzney stores, they just seemed kind of awful, just messy and full of nothing we'd want to buy.
Though, to be fair, we've no clue on who makes the decisions about what to stock, TCP of The Mouse.
(Emphasis added.)
Ooooo. We hope this means more Stitchies. Because, really, that's what it's all about.
When we were in Shanghai, we went with Mr. Tikistitch to this amazing children's store, where every section of the store was dedicated to a different license. So, there was a section that was all SpongeBob stationery products, and another that was all Teletubbies clothing, and a few different sections on different floors for various Disney products. It was pretty mind-blowing, especially since we didn't expect to find hardly any licensed goods in China.

Children's Place in Talks With Disney to Postpone Remodeling Deadlines
SECAUCUS, N.J. (AP) -- The Children's Place Retail Stores Inc. said Thursday it missed several deadlines to remodel and refresh numerous stores in the Disney Store chain and expects to miss more deadlines.
Under a long-term license agreement with Walt Disney Co., Children's Place operates the Disney Store retail chain in the U.S. and Canada. On June 8, Children's Place agreed to an amended license deal that included a timetable to renovate and upgrade hundreds of Disney stores.

The company said it is in talks with Disney to postpone the due dates of some of the remodeling obligations. In consideration for the changes, the companies have also discussed additional changes to the original license agreement, including allowing Disney to relocate its flagship store in Manhattan.
The companies are also considering loosening restrictions on Disney's ability to grant direct licenses to other retailers, so that they apply only to retailers primarily focused on selling children's merchandise.
