Disney fans may soon have even more ways to customize one of Walt Disney World’s newest collectible accessories.

Disney has teased a new wave of Create-Your-Own Headband Plush characters inspired by three beloved Disney animated films: Moana, The Little Mermaid, and Tangled. While Disney has not yet announced a release date, the first preview has already sparked excitement among guests who have been building their own personalized plush headbands throughout Walt Disney World.

The customizable plush headbands have quickly become one of the most popular accessory trends at Walt Disney World.

The concept is simple: guests purchase a plush-covered headband base and then add removable character plushes using fabric fasteners attached to each character. The result is a completely customizable headband that can be changed and updated with different characters over time.

Now, Disneyland is teasing even more options for guests looking to personalize their collection.

According to the preview, upcoming additions will be inspired by characters from Disney’s Moana, The Little Mermaid, and Tangled.

Three Popular Disney Films Join the Collection

The teaser showcases plush characters from some of Disney’s most beloved animated franchises.

Fans spotted characters representing:

• Moana
• The Little Mermaid
• Tangled

The additions continue Disney’s strategy of expanding the Create-Your-Own Headband lineup beyond its original offerings, which already include a wide variety of Disney, Pixar, and other fan-favorite characters.

For Disney Princess fans especially, the latest teased additions could become some of the most sought-after plushes in the collection.

A Growing Disney Merchandise Trend

Since debuting at Walt Disney World, the customizable plush headbands have become increasingly popular with guests looking for an alternative to traditional Minnie ears.

Unlike standard headbands, the Create-Your-Own system allows guests to swap characters whenever they want, creating different combinations for different park visits, seasonal events, or favorite Disney films.

The plush characters are sold individually and attach directly to the headband base, allowing fans to build a completely unique design.

Current offerings include characters from Disney Animation, Pixar, Star Wars, and The Nightmare Before Christmas, among other franchises.

When Will the New Plushes Arrive?

Disney has only teased the new plush characters so far and has not yet confirmed an official release date.

However, the preview suggests the Moana, The Little Mermaid, and Tangled additions will be arriving soon at Disney merchandise locations that currently carry the Create-Your-Own Headband collection.

Given the popularity of Disney Princess merchandise across the parks, these new plush characters could quickly become fan favorites once they officially arrive.

Whether you’re building a princess-themed headband, adding to an existing collection, or looking for a new Disney Parks accessory, these upcoming additions may be worth keeping an eye on.

We’ll continue watching for an official release date and additional details from Disney.
