I’m in Canada but want a souvenir from Disney Paris — suggestions?
July 28, 2020 6:50 PM Subscribe
I went to Disney Paris a few years ago and got a plush Emile toy from the movie Ratatouille. I’d like another but won’t be going back in all likelihood. The toy is not on eBay, Amazon, or any other site that I can find online. Does anyone know of a service that helps people who want items from other locations? Alternatively, does anyone have any good suggestions?
I found this on amazon, but they shipped it to the wrong address and it was returned damaged. They don’t have any more.

I know a kid named Remy who was given a few Remy toys. Emile, while not a common kid name, does still get used sometimes... maybe ask in some local parenting groups if anyone has one, or knows a kid named Emile who might have one?

I would absolutely ask on theme park and Disney fan boards - DISboards as above, as well as MiceChat. If they can't help you directly, they may be able to point you at Paris-specific sites or other resources. I assure you there is someone out there who owns this plush in mint condition. Whether you want to pay what they're asking is another question...

There’s a Disneyland Paris subreddit. Maybe someone would oblige you?

Disney world in Florida is scheduled to get a Ratatouille ride (France pavilion at EPCOT) fairly soon so it's very possible there will be an influx of merchandise when it opens (after the Norway ride became a Frozen ride, I was gobsmacked by the amount of Elsa and Anna merch in the store next to it).
Emile is adorable! Good luck!
