A massive Magic Kingdom expansion, a complete overhaul of DinoLand U.S.A. in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and “Happily Ever After” returning as part of a new fireworks show — the announcements coming out of the 2022 D23 Expo were WILD.

But major announcements weren’t the only things to come out of this year’s Expo. We also saw some new merchandise collections, including ones that featured 100th Anniversary Mickey ears, Pilot Mickey, and Princess Tiana. Now, MORE D23 Expo merchandise is available online, and Amazon Prime members are in luck!
You’ve seen Pilot Mickey, so now it’s Pilot Donald’s time to shine! In case you didn’t already know, the pilot-themed merchandise is in honor of Walt Disney’s plane, which was on display at the D23 Expo. The highlight of this new collection is definitely the Loungefly Pilot Donald Mickey Ears.
