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.


Thumper (in grey) and his girlfriend Blossom(the blonde on the left) were produced in America and Australia.

These figurines measure about three inches high each and were among the more popular and therefore more common today.

I don't believe she was referred to as Blossom in the film but Disney may have invented the name for mechandising purposes. The newspaper advertisement is from the USA. $3.00 Each!

Bambi's Flower Pink Shell Wall Vase




Here's another variation on the seemingly endless variety of Bambi wall vases that turn up from MCP.This one features Flower inside a pink shell.Others I have seen have featured Flower,Thumper,and a very rare Snow White.The entire item stands about 5 inches tall.Some have holes in the rear for hanging,others do not.

Here's some close-up shots of one of the Zaccagnini Dumbo figurines.The painted finish is less glossy than the MCP figurines by the looks of things.They often had a sticker reading "COLLEZIONE Disney" on them and all should bear the handpainted "Z" with a little line through it.Very very rare and yet two have shown up on ebay this week!A beautiful little figure that I hope to own one day!

This teeny tiny image is the only proof I've been able to find of the dumbo trio by Zaccagnini.

Indeed it appears that MCP reproduced both the midle one and the baby on the right.
