Guest guest Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Not to dash your dreams, but it's very unlikely Disney can help. Undoubtedly the Lion King thing was licensed to the company that makes Tooth Tunes. You'd be better off contacting the Tooth Tune manufacturer. Disney just let Tooth Tunes pay them some money to use the Lion King. It's very unlikely Disney has any of the actual inventory. The manufacturer, Tooth Tunes, would be the more logical place to hopefully score actual inventory, since they were the actual manufacturer.It can be very confusing with Licensed Products, but the people to contact are always the Manufacturer, not the Licensing Agent. (For Example, I went to the International Toy Fair in NYC last week and there probably 50-100 booths with Disney items in them--and none of them were Disney. They were all Licensed by Disney, but in order to buy any of those items, you had to deal with the individual companies. Disney just collects money from the licensing).

Not to dash your dreams, but it's very unlikely Disney can help. Undoubtedly the Lion King thing was licensed to the company that makes Tooth Tunes. You'd be better off contacting the Tooth Tune manufacturer. Disney just let Tooth Tunes pay them some money to use the Lion King. It's very unlikely Disney has any of the actual inventory. The manufacturer, Tooth Tunes, would be the more logical place to hopefully score actual inventory, since they were the actual manufacturer.It can be very confusing with Licensed Products, but the people to contact are always the Manufacturer, not the Licensing Agent. (For Example, I went to the International Toy Fair in NYC last week and there probably 50-100 booths with Disney items in them--and none of them were Disney. They were all Licensed by Disney, but in order to buy any of those items, you had to deal with the individual companies. Disney just collects money from the licensing).

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 I understand what you are going through. I know how kids on the spectrum can fixate on the smallest things and must have the same one. I went through that with my daughter. With her it was a stuffed dolphin. When it got to the point I couldn't sew it any longer they no longer made them. What I did with her might work with your son. I know you tried to offer him a new toothbrush, but have you tried letting him pick one out? You could do this at a store or show him selections online and let him be the one to pick one out. I would order a couple of them just encase however. You could even make a game of it. Make a fuss about it. I did that with the dolphin. Since she was the one that got to pick the transition was easier for her. > > my 5 year old has been using a tooth tunes toothbrush from the lion king... he desperately needs a new toothbrush but gets extremely distressed when i try to offer him a new one, i cannot find these toothbrushes anywhere!!! if anyone knows, please let me know!! such a seemingly small thing... > best wishes... > jo x > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
