Here's the Evan K Shaw version of Donald Duck in his boat. The MCP version is quite diofferent and a better sculpt in my opinion.

An absolutely breathtaking Joe Carioca from Zaccagnini. If you're wondering what to get me for Christmas, this will do nicely.

Can anyone help to identify this Scamp figurine from "Lady & The Tramp" ?

He stand at about 6 inches high and is marked on the base "Fantasia" in blue and with a circular "Walt Disney Productions". He may be a Zaccagnini or may have been made by another company in Spain. Mysterious and cute!

This absolutely delightful figurine of the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland was seen recently on Ebay and sold for well over US$3,000! What financial crisis, I hear you say?

Zaccagnini figures are the rarest of the rare and exquisitely beautiful. Pictures of them are hard to come by so as I find them I will start adding them to the site. I haven't had any new finds with MCP recently, but have noticed prices continuing to rise on Ebay.

This is one of the most exquisite MCP pieces. Donald Duck in his motorboat stands at about 6 inches tall. This is a vase or planter, and the only one I have seen with a sticker. This was produced only in Australia.

The March Hare from "Alice in Wonderland". Not sure of the height but this is the MCp version.

Quite the most odd representation of Figaro, but indeed and MCP product, exclusive to the Australian range. About 4 inches high and very rare.

Here's two versions of Minnie Mouse. The one on the left was produced by both MCP and it's Americna counterpats, while the planter or posy vase on the right appears to be an exclusive to Australia and has the MCP sticker. Both are very rare!

Lasty night an MCP sculpture of the Owl from "So Dear To My Heart" sold on ebay for over AU$1,000.

I think this might set a record for an MCP piece, as it's the highest I have ever seen one sell for. It'
s also the first time I have ever seen the owl listed on ebay.

The piece was stickered which always makes a difference to the price.

Here is a link to the auction:

Two different versions of Mickey Mouse. The one on the left was also made my Evan Shaw/ American pottery and the one on the right my be exclusive to MCP. It may also be Morty, one of Mickey's nephews used in licencing in the 1950's, and not Mickey, but I haven't seen him with the sticker to know for sure.

Finally a picture of Tramp with the MCP sticker, sent in by a reader. This Trampo has a nice colour scheme, some I have seen looked very sloppy and cheap indeed, prompting me to always think they were Japanese and not MCP.

This image of an MCP Lady from "Lady and the Tramp" was sent in by George Young. it is the first time I've ever seen it, thanks George!

The standing Bambi was manufacture by both MCP and Evan Shaw. He stands about 6 inches high and is most frequently found with repaired legs, as they are quite thin. Finding an intact one is not too difficult as this figurine seems to turn up on Ebay most frequently.

Yet another colourway in the Bambi series of wall vases, this one featuring Thumper.

Tramp

Tramp from the 1954 film "Lady and the Tramp", my favourite Disney film. I have passed this figurine over thinking it was too sloppily made to be MCP, and I could kick myself now, as I have since seen him with a sticker selling for very high prices!!

I am assuming there must have been a Lady as his companion piece, but I have never seen her.

Minnie Mouse was made both here and in the USA and comes complete with broom and apron, because a 50's housewife needed no other accessories!

This charming Mickey Mouse stands at around 4 inches in height and comes in several different paint applications (I guess the factory went thru alot of painters in its day). He is holding abunch of flowers for his sweetheart. This figurine was also produced in the USA.

MCP did a version of The Mad Hatter similar to the US version. I am ot sure of the size difference, but I think the Australian version stands at around 5 inches high, and there is also a March Hare.

This Dumbo with a hat was available through Evan Shaw and also turned up as part of the MCP range in Australia.

A cute little Flower vase that uses the same sculpt as those used for the wall vases.

Wall Masks

There is a mysterious set of wall masks/plaques that occasionally turn up and are attributed to MCP. I have never seen them with an identifying sticker, but they do turn up in Australia.

Panchito is a charming figurine from the 1944 Disney film "The Three Caballeros". He stands at about 5 inches high and comes ins everal different colour variations.

Gus and Jaq, the two mice from Cinderella, stand at about 4 inches high.

Ugly Cinderella

This ugly Cinderella stands at about 6 inches high. This is exceptionally rare, and I have also seen here with gold stars painted on the dress. Not a good representation of the character and also Australian only, as far as I know.

Tweedledee and Tweedledum were available from MCP but I am not sure if their was a height difference between the US and Australian versions. Exceptionally rare, I have seen them sell for AU$600 a pair!

Figaro stands at about three inches high and is one of the more often seen characters in the MCP range. he was also available in the USA as part of the Evan Shaw range.

Two small Bambi figurines measuring about three inches in height. Produced by MCP and also to the best of my knowledge available in the USA.

Standing at around five inches high this Bambi vase bears an MCP mark imprinted on it's underside, and the distinctive painting of the other Bambi figurines in the range. It is a bit of a stretch to consider this one "Disneyish".

Peter Pan's Wendy

Though not a good likeness for the character of Wendy from Disney's Peter Pan, this naive figurine was still part of the MCP range. I am not sure of it's measurements nor if it was reproduced in the US or elsewhere. I also don't know if other figurines from Peter Pan were produced.

My favourite of all the MCP figurines was the White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland.

Five inches high and also produced in the USA.
