Best Early Black Friday 2026 Deals for Disney Fans!
The holiday season is unofficially underway at Walt Disney World and Disneyland, as well as the Bricker household, and on Amazon with the start of the Holiday Deals or early Black Friday sales. This shares a quick list of the best deals we’ve found thus far on books, LEGOs, clothing, and more–with an emphasis on things you’ll want before Christmas.
With each passing year, Amazon has started sales earlier. Between Prime Days last month, Early Holiday Deals now, and Black Friday starting November 19, 2026, it all kind of blurs together. It’s actually often the case that the best deals can be found earlier in November, especially as Black Friday has become more mainstream.
Honestly, we didn’t really find that to be the case last year and I certainly hope it’s not true for 2026. There are some good deals right now, but few truly scorching sales. We’ve already bought certain things since Amazon’s Holiday Deals started, but by and large, we’ll wait. The good news is that it doesn’t hurt to buy now if you see a good deal and want to hedge your bets. In fact, this can be the savvier approach!
Black Friday and Cyber Monday are now within the return window, so you can always see if things are cheaper then. If so, simply buy the items again and return the duplicates (our local Whole Foods has a convenient drop box–pretty sure we’re the #1 users of that). There are plenty of times when the item is actually less expensive before the big deal days, so this strategy works out pretty well.
When it comes to these items, we receive a small commission from your purchases, so buying through these links helps support the site. However, neither the price you pay nor our recommendations are impacted by that. You can tell I’m being sincere with these picks based on the total absence of Nightmare Before Christmas merchandise.
Anyway, let’s get started with the best of the travel and Disney deals we’ve found thus far…
Tonies Bluey Audio Toy Figurine 3 Pack Set with Bluey, Bingo, Muffin – We’ve become big fans of the Toniebox, and I’ve been deemed “not good” at doing the Bluey voices, so this is perfect for us. Each of the three Tonies has 2 songs and 8 stories, for a total run time of 136 minutes across 3 Tonies. This limited time deal lasts for the next ~11 hours, at which point it presumably reverts to full price.
Osprey Daylite Expandable 26+6 Travel Pack – Stumbling upon this backpack while looking for deals on new luggage was actually the motivation for this post. One thing led to another, and I ended up with a whole list. Anyway, this is considered to be one of the best personal items among frequent fliers, with dimensions that work for even budget airlines. I have not used this particular backpack before, but I have used other Ospreys, and they’re fantastic. It’s pricey with the early Black Friday discount of 35% off, but this brand makes high quality products that are worth the premium pricing.
Charging Station 4-in-1 for MagicBand+ Plus – This is a new to me spotlighted product that makes a lot of sense if you have a party full of MagicBand+ power users. It definitely beats the individual docks and cords. If you have the targeted coupon in your account dropping the price to $20.49, this is the lowest price of the year. If you don’t, wait until the actual Black Friday sales start.
JoyJolt Disney Mickey Mouse 3D Glass Cups Set of 2 – JoyJolt Disney coffee cups aren’t your regular double walled glasses. Look inside and you’ll discover Disney’s Mickey Mouse inside your coffee in optical 3D. These used to be a perennial staple of our deal lists, but it’s actually the first time we’ve seen them on sale this year. A good deal at 37% off.
Star Wars Darth Vader Premium Electronic Helmet – This is outside my wheelhouse; I just got an alert for this. It’s a better discount than the 14% off suggests, as the previous price for this was $230, making it roughly half-off! Reviews are very positive, too.
Disney Villains Chess Set – This is standard chess, but with Disney villains-inspired pieces. Choose the spooky translucent green side to play as Hades from Hercules, The Evil Queen from Snow White, Gaston from Beauty and the Beast, Chernabog from Fantasia, Shere Khan from The Jungle Book, plus others and their lackeys. Or choose purple and play as Jafar from The Lion King, Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty, Yzma from The Emperor’s New Clothes, Ursula from The Little Mermaid, Scar from The Lion King, and others. This is currently 43% off as part of a Lightning Deal, with 48% of inventory claimed.
Repel Travel Umbrella – This is windproof, durable, and compact. You may not think a windproof umbrella is necessary for Walt Disney World, but during storm season, it absolutely is. A great deal at 43% off, too.
LEGO Disney Moana 2 Kakamora Barge – This is a scorching hot deal at 55% off! Between the percentage-off savings and popularity of Moana, we don’t expect this one to last long. Hopefully it’s still available for $45 when you see this!
LEGO Scaled-Up Santa – Not technically Disney, but Santa Claus appears in all of the parks, so in an indirect way, it’s related. Also a very good deal at 30% off for the early Black Friday sales.
LEGO Disney Wish Asha’s Cottage – If your kids didn’t like Wish or you didn’t see it, I dunno, tell them it’s the cottage from Snow White. This set has been perpetually discounted for the last year-plus. At some point, it’s going to be gone, but who knows when that’ll be. For now, a great deal at 36% off.
LEGO Disney Wish: King Magnifico’s Castle – Similar story here–this set is 51% off! LEGO sets are never that deeply discounted. Not only that, but the castle actually looks cool. I’m inclined to get this, swap out the figures, and just tell our daughter it’s King Triton’s Castle. (Note that this indicates only a few are left in stock, so it might be gone by the time you see this.)
LEGO Disney and Pixar ‘Up’ House – This 598-piece LEGO Disney toy set includes a partial house built with balloons, different rooms and functions, plus Carl Fredricksen and Russell LEGO minifigures, and a Dug LEGO dog figure for dog lovers. At 36% off, this is the cheapest this has been in the last three-plus months.
LEGO Disney Frozen Elsa’s Ice Palace – This buildable Disney Frozen toy features a 3-level ice palace with a tower, Elsa, Anna and Kristoff LEGO Disney mini-doll figures and an Olaf snowman figure. This is currently 31% off, which actually is not the cheapest we’ve ever seen it. If it’s still in stock, it could be 35% to 38% off for Black Friday.
LEGO Disney Moana 2 Heihei – Features a brick-built, posable construction model of Moana’s chicken companion Heihei, along with a display stand with decorative flowers and a nameplate. I don’t really care for this set, but a decent deal at 20% off.
LEGO Disney Lucky & Penny 101 Dalmatians Puppies – Build and play with Lucky and Penny, two adorable puppies from Disney’s classic 101 Dalmatians movie. Currently 20% off.
Lionel Disney Mickey Mouse Express Train with Bluetooth – Join Mickey and Friends to spread Christmas spirit in this present filled Disney train set that makes a great gift for kids and train hobbyists–perfect for around the tree. A great deal at 35% off!
Travel White Noise Machine – We bought one of these for traveling with our baby as it was recommended by countless parenting blogs. As it turns out, this is just great for traveling in general. That’s doubly true at Walt Disney World, where I swear that even Deluxe Resorts have paper-thin walls.
Get 3 for the Price of 2 – Items from this page are buy 2, get 1 free. This includes many of our favorite Disney books, from coffee table books about the parks to Little Golden Books that our daughter loves. The link here is limited to Disney books, but you can see a broader selection, too. Here’s how to take advantage:

The Art of Disney-Pixar’s Hoppers – I’m a big fan of these ‘art of’ books, and Hoppers is one of several titles that’s discounted and part of the 3 for 2 deal. Among the other titles are Moana 2, Toy Story 5, Zootopia 2, and Pixar colorscripts. To see more of these titles, search for “Art of disney” on the deal page.
12 Beloved Disney Classic Little Golden Books (Boxed Set) – This is one of two Disney Little Golden Book box sets that are on sale for deep discounts. This is truly classics, which is something to keep in mind for better or worse, with one-dozen Walt Disney Little Golden Books originally published in the 1950s and 1960s. (This one is 51% off and included in the 3 for 2 deal!)
Santa Stops at Disneyland (Little Golden Book) – The Disney Parks Little Golden Books are fantastic, with gorgeous art and cute stories. This mixes Christmas and Disneyland, making it a must-own for us. This is one of Megatron’s favorite books.
Disney 5-Minute Christmas Stories — Join in the festivities of the season as Mike and Sully race to light the big Christmas tree, Alice finds the Red Queen’s present, Peter Pan brings Christmas to Never Land, and more! (Also part of the 3 for 2 deal.)
Delicious Disney: Walt Disney World – This is much more than a cookbook with recipes for iconic dishes. You’ll also find rare restaurant concept art, history, and old menu scans. (Also part of the 3 for 2 deal.)
The Happiest Place on Earth: The Incredible Story of Walt Disney’s Disneyland – This is one of the highlights of the recently-concluded 70th Anniversary, and it’s now 52% off with a bonus offer to save $19 on 3 select items. It brings a shocking amount of new content and fresh perspective to the table, and is a gorgeous and gigantic coffee table book that’s worthy of display. We recommend buying this ASAP, as it’ll go out of print soon and will end up being significantly more expensive down the road. (Not part of the 3 for 2 promo–just a great deal!)
Walt Disney’s Disneyland – One of the best theme park books of all-time, this is a must-have for Disneyland fans. Even if you’re a more of a Florida person, there’s a good amount on Walt Disney here, making it a worthwhile option for WDW fans, too. This is 57% off, and there’s a coupon to drop the price even further! (Not part of the 3 for 2 promo–just a great deal!)
The Muppet Christmas Carol: The Illustrated Holiday Classic – If you’ve followed this blog around Christmas-time, you know we are huge fans of Muppet Christmas Carol. I’ve seen it more than any other film (the next closest is Terminator 2, for those keeping score at home). This is 48% off, and has a bonus promo to take $7.89 off 3 select items.
Holiday Magic at the Disney Parks: Celebrations Around the World — This is an incredible deep dive into the holidays (mostly Christmas and Halloween, but also Easter and other seasonal events) with great photos, detailed information, and rich history. If you love the seasonal events, this is an absolute must-own. A fantastic deal at 62% off right now!
The Unofficial Disney Parks Holiday Cookbooks – Don’t let “unofficial” fool you. While not made by Disney, this series offers the definitive cookbooks from the parks and are fan-favorites. Get the Christmas edition now for 51% off.
Leroy Loungefly – A few Loungeflys are on sale, including Leroy (from Lilo & Stitch), and more seasonal options. None really look all that great.
Disney Vintage Goofy Holiday Presents T-Shirt – This is the only worthwhile article of Christmas clothing that’s currently on sale, which is something of a rarity. As much as I like this shirt, it’s still $17. I guess that’s cheap by shirt standards–certainly less expensive than anything you could get at Walt Disney World. On the other hand, I paid $10 for my favorite Santa Mickey shirt a couple years ago. There are several other $17 Disney Christmas Shirts in addition to this one.
If you want a broad selection of the current deals, check out Amazon’s Holiday Deals page for the biggest savings and most popular deals. We recommend browsing for yourself a bit, and checking back often, as new deals are regularly appearing–and disappearing. Just be mindful of the fact that some of these offers are time-sensitive, so you don’t want to spend too much time procrastinating and end up losing out!
