First '2009 Production Mark' Sighting!

The 2009 Production Mark has been sighted! The Paw Print production mark was sighted on Simba ("Little King, Big Roar"), the 2009 Spring Event Sculpture which made it's debut April 17-20, 2009.

This year's production mark honors Walt Disney's animated classic One Hundred and One Dalmatians and the symbol is a paw print (pictured at left).

The only sculptures that do not include the Production Mark are the yearly Walt Disney Collectors Society Membership Gift Sculptures. The Production Mark was discontinued on the Membership Gift sculptures years ago to discourage Society Members from purposely disrupting their memberships as they let their memberships lapse and then try to renew them a year or so later in the hopes of receiving the following year's Production Mark (when we would produce fewer with that mark).

Thanks Carl/Gurgi for this
breaking news! Very appropriate the first sculpt to bear this year's production mark would be Simba :)
