It was definitely crowded, but I understood as there was major hype surrounding the upcoming parks to be added. I still have not been able to make a trip back to see Epic Universe but was grateful for this shop to experience a small piece of what the parks must be like. There was a selection of items priced similar to other shops, so you can even rock some merch from the Epic Universe parks.

After my mom and I visited Universal's Islands of Adventure, on our third day, before the RunDisney…read moreSpringtime race the next day, we had a chance to shop around Universal CityWalk. One of the stores that I really wanted to go into was the Universal Epic Universe Preview Center. You'll see this store as soon as you exit from the parking garage, and go straight towards Islands of Adventure. It's off to your left before you cross over the bridge area. One of the main reasons I wanted to come into this store was to see the massive model of the new Epic Universe theme park! It was so beautiful and well done! My favorite area I'm looking forward to is Super Nintendo World. I am a huge fan of the Super Mario series and Donkey Kong! I can't wait to go on the rides in the area and try out some of the food! You can also scan the QR codes to see all of the rides and attractions at Epic Universe! The store also has a wide range of merchandise too. The merchandise is actually Epic Universe themed. There are apparel to purchase like shirts and even toys based off of Super Nintendo World, Universal Monsters, and so much more! There are also photo opportunities inside the store too! My daughter is looking forward to the How to Train your Dragon themed area at Epic Universe! I can't wait for Epic Universe to open at the end of May. Unfortunately, I wont be back to Florida until the end of October. This is a must visit store if you're looking forward to Epic Universe!

Because of the line, I knew it would take him quite a long time to get thru it. I decided to go into this Universal Studios Souvenir store because there was nothing else to do, and I decided to get some stuff for my family and I. I looked around the store and got some stuff for my brother and my mom. Also bought myself a Jurassic Park shirt. Still remember the original movie fondly. Is it pricey? Yes! But hey, you have to expect that coming to this type of store.

But, Universal Studios Store always makes the experience of being there a bit better! It's such a fun shop. I like to go in and look around, shop for myself, or pick up gifts for others. It's great for whatever shopping you may need to do. And I love all of the Harry Potter merchandise! Especially the candies! If you're in the Orlando airport you've got to check out Universal Studios Store!

Apparently, they renamed the store since I was last year, but they still have so many great…read moreofferings. They have a wide selection of Disney apparel and toys available in this location. They even had a lot of the merchandise that is available only for the flower and garden festival. One of the big deals this year has been Orange Bird who is very popular. I found some really cool puzzles while I was wandering around, but didn't get any on this trip. This location is somewhat closer to the entrance and before you get to the world showcase so I tend to recommend shopping on your way out so you're not having to carry stuff for the rest of the day through the park. All the cast members are friendly and we were offered Assistance while wandering the store.

The staple gift shop at EPCOT with anything and everything you could possibly want from the park…read more From Mickey / Minnie ears, to household decor, to festival exclusives, this is the place to get it. It's a huge store, so you'll be spending some time here if you are looking around at everything. They usually keep seasonal or festival items towards the main entrances on either the front or back side of the main store. Staff is easy to spot and they are in abundance at this location as it is almost always busy. There are two main register areas for purchases and there are several registers that are active at any time, so it's quick and easy to check out during most days. Items are higher price, but it's Disney and it's tourist items (souvenirs) so it makes sense. If you are a pass holder, be sure to show your card for your retail discount! Overall: A+ THE spot for EPCOT merch!

If you're a fan of the Grinch, you need to stop by the Mulberry Street Store! After my mom and I…read morerode a few rides in Seuss Landing, we decided to stop by all of the shops! Mulberry Street Store was one of our favorites! Inside this store, you'll find all items related to Dr.Seuss. There was a lot of merchandise for the Grinch though! We saw a lot of Grinch themed holiday houses, apparel, toys, and so much more! There was Grinch themed Tumblers, Mugs, Cups, Backpacks, Board games, and hats! As we were browsing the store, we saw a variety of Thing 1 and Thing 2 merchandise too! You can buy toys, souvenirs, wigs, hats, snacks, name tags, memorabilia, and so much more! If you're looking for personalized gift options, Mulberry Street Store offers that at the Personal-Who-Zation station! It was pretty empty when my mom and I visited Universal Studios Islands of Adventure on a Friday morning! We did pick up some Grinch themed apparel!

Annual passholder discounts do apply at this store! My family and I ended up stopping into this store looking for Pins! It was well organized and had lots of inventory. It wasn't as busy as some of the other stores in Epcot! This is a great place to stop at if you're on the way out of the Epcot theme park and you wanted to get a last-minute souvenir!

5 stars for a Disney pin collector's hot spot…read more Located on the 4th floor of Disney's Contemporary Resort (otherwise known as the hotel that has the monorail running through it), Fantasia gifts is the only Disney resort (at least in Orlando) that carries Limited Edition and Limited Release Disney pins (new ones come out every Thursday). Fantasia has 4 entrances/exits and does offer more Disney souvenir offerings in addition to pins. This bustling store offers games, toys, t-shirts, pens and even pet-centric souvenirs. The cast members are always friendly and ready to help answer any question. Also, if you're looking for a particular item and they don't have it in stock, you can ask a cast member if the item is available anywhere else on Disney property. Tip: if you are coming to the Contemporary by car (as opposed to the free Disney bus system or monorail), just show the security guards at the gate your ID and explain your intent to purchase souvenirs. Unless there's a convention or other event that is causing them to experience a high volume of guests, they usually let you in without having a resort or dining reservation.

What a fun store! Peanut M&M's are my favorite candy, so I absolutely loved getting to walk through…read morethis store for the first time! I've always enjoyed how, over the years, the M&M's characters have each developed their own personalities, and that really comes through in all of the fun apparel and merchandise throughout the store. They even have the history of M&M's displayed on the wall, which was really cool to read about. The entire store is so bright and colorful, thanks to all the different M&M colors! I also loved seeing all of the newer customization options. You can create your own customized M&M's and choose from so many fun ways to package them, including champagne bottles, cakes, mini containers, and even very large containers. I already know I'll be getting my own customized M&M cake for my birthday next year. No doubt about it! And the back wall of M&M's absolutely blew my mind! Not only can you get them color-coded, but they have SO many additional flavors that you don't typically find at the grocery store. For a candy store, there was definitely a lot to see and do here! Speaking of customization, you can literally customize your own M&M's right in the store using one of their kiosks, which is such a fun feature. If you're an M&M's fan, this is definitely a fun store to explore. There's way more here than just candy!

They have so many different flavors, but nothing beats the impressive wall of M&M'S where you can create your own cup and mix your favorites. They also have the option to design your own M&M'S, which makes the experience even more fun and personal. There are so many options to choose from, including milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and peanut M&M'S, plus plenty of specialty flavors. We definitely couldn't leave without getting a few different ones to try. My favorite was the crispy M&M'S with marshmallow cream inside and covered in white chocolate--such a good combination!
