- Welcome to a new spinoff series to my extremely popular "History Of" series!
What better topic for the first episode of this new series than one of my favorite stores from my childhood! That would be none other than the old Disney Store at Oxmoor Center! It has quite an interesting history throughout it's nearly 30 year run from several character appearances to the many iconic and classic statues, and don't forget Mount Plushmore!!!

R.I.P. Louisville Disney Store (1992-2020) :(
Hooray another great history video from Nathan spies
R.I.P Louisville Disney store
I used to go to the Louisville Disney Store A LOT whenever my mom, Mike, and I went to Oxmoor Center in Louisville to do some shopping. I also went there with my Dad whenever I went to Louisville with him. I sure do miss that.
I think it would be cool if you did a history video on the oxmoor center and maybe other Louisville malls
It’s so weird to see someone do a whole video about a store I used to go to I miss it so much I’m so glad to see this video!!
It's pretty sad to see a lot of Disney Stores shut down in shopping malls although there is still one that is active that I found, the one in the Ontario Mills Mall in Southern California. I actually kind of miss the ones in Moreno Valley and Tyler now. :(
There was a Disney Store at the mall I grew up going to in South Florida. It opened in either 1995 or 1996. It had it’s “plush mountain” in the center of the store. The entrance had the classic Mickey head from the cartoon openings, made of terrazzo.
It felt like they took a piece of the theme park and grafted it into the mall. It was a good way to get your Disney fix without having to drive 3 hours [to Disney World].
I found out that this one too closed in 2020. It had been 18 years since I moved away from the area by that point.
Yes memories
Oh my gosh this was my Disney store!!!!! I used to go all the time before it closed!
Same!
It must be so nice to have found all these pictures of your local Disney store. I've had the hardest time finding any information of mine.
Man, I have a Lotta memories I went to my local Disney store, but sadly my local Disney store have been closed. I’m really sad about it
I LOVED the Oxmoor Mall Disney Store!! It was my favorite mall store, and it was the closest I ever came to experiencing the parks! I can even remember when the Warner Brothers Studio Store was right across from it in the late 90s - Oxmoor Mall was a great place to go if you loved animated films!
I also loved Plush Mountain (sometimes I call it "Mount Plushmore" too!). In fact, I think that the very first time I was brought to the Oxmoor Mall Disney Store when I was very young, I was utterly enthralled by Plush Mountain, and I stood there gazing at it, slipped off my shoes, climbed in and snuggled in with all the plushies - until I was yanked back out again at the urging of a distraught cast member! At 2 or 3 years old, it didn't occur to me that I could not do with a store display of plush what I did all the time with my stuffed animals at home😅
My favorite Disney Store items were definitely the plushies, especially the mini bean bags! I still have a bunch of them - my favorite childhood bean bag plushies were/are Flower the skunk, Dumbo, and Piglet from Winnie the Pooh. I loved Disney Tsum Tsums, too, when those were released years later!
And, I can totally believe that the 429 store cast members were like a family to one another - I remember them being some of the nicest people working at Oxmoor. I'm glad to hear that they got to have so much fun together, with all the different exclusive events. In the 2010s, I even sort-of became friends with the assistant manager (at least, I *think* that was his role)...he was always the first one to greet customers and offer assistance, always had a smile on his face, and when I felt self-conscious about browsing/buying plushies as a young adult, he would smile at me encouragingly and say, "I see you found some new friends!" In another Disney Store-related UA-cam video, someone revealed that Disney Store cast members are told something like, "each guest deserves at least 30 - 40 seconds of magic" (can't remember the exact amount of time), and well, the assistant manager at the Oxmoor Disney Store offered that, and more.💖 I hope he's been doing okay since the store closed in late 2020, given that the closure occurred on such short notice (I'd been afraid of that).
Anyway, this is a terrific video - thank you so much for the nostalgia trip! 😃
As someone who loves Mickey Mouse and Disney, I wish the Disney Stores remained. It's a place where you can experience Disney magic, without visiting the parks. I'm glad I visited my local Disney Store in 2020. I bought a Sorcerer Mickey and Christmas Mickey plush there. Just recently, I visited NY's Disney Store. It was so incredible and big. I bought 4 items there.
Long live Disney Stores!
This very well documented and I like this video so much! I use to have a lot of memories with The Disney Store as well.
Hey man, want to say thank you for for using my pictures and video I really do appreciate it and thank you for adding this on to your history of the Disney store
Cried and howled a lot when it shut down entirely in September 2020, although Fabletics still remained open for a year.
Bro summoned the entirety of Louisville in the comments
RIP the disney stores. I loved you.
Wish I got that McQueen portrait in time lmao
I also remember there used to be a Disney Store in my area at the Mission valley mall! I remember going to the mall last time but the Disney store was not there anymore sadly
Damn. My local Disney stores went through those same and similar fates. We had several Disney stories in the Cincinnati area (where I live) including Northgate, Springdale, and Kenwood. The one that I remember going to quite often before it closed was the one in Springdale. It was in Tri-County Mall, and my parents would take me to that store, which I bought some plushies from there, including figurines.
The one in Tri-County Mall was the one that I remember going to that introduced me to the world of Disney. I was told that the ones at both Tri-County Mall and Northgate Mall opened in the 90s, but in different years. Unfortunately, they both closed in 2008. The one in Northgate closed in January of that year, and became a dance studio years later (which is still open today). The one in Tri-County closed in July of that year, which was devastating because the mall was doing fine before it went downhill, and it became a jewelry store called Glitter, which closed and the mall is now closed for good, unfortunately.
The one in Kenwood had its interesting relationship with Disney. The original Disney Store at Kenwood Towne Center opened back in 1991, but I’m not sure when it closed. However, they opened a new location in that mall in 2011 until they closed in 2021, and I went to that store, a lot. I bought several kinds of merchandise there, not just plushies.
The only Disney store that’s currently open in my area is the one in Monroe, but it’s called Disney Outlet, and that opened in 2009 along with the rest of Cincinnati Premium Outlets, if I recall.
This was my hometown location too - it just pains me to see a store so staunch in its aesthetic ways be steamrolled by the minimalist wave. It breaks my heart - now everything feels bland
Here’s an idea The complete history of Louisville’s Toys “R” Us
I mean, why not?
He ready did bruh ua-cam.com/video/i-c6Rg4eRec/v-deo.htmlsi=_J3-UcQVxTqr2bMe

@@lauralujan1135 oh ok im i didn't know 🦒
@@lauralujan1135 This doesn’t have anything to do with Geoffrey it’s about the history of Louisville Toys “R” Us
I miss Disney store
Same but at least we have those pop ups in target may not be the same but they have good stuff
The great Arrival.
I remember I went to a mall and it had a Disney store that closed, but there were still remains of the old Disney store, mainly the tv in the back
This is so much bad to be high off favorite store for Disney and I still have some stuff that I bought there😰
I had memories go to my Disney store getting the tsum tsum and the mickey mouse clubhouse toys I still have it today 😢
The Disney store in Glendale Galleria what is not a thing anymore and also another location like somewhere I forgot what the name was used to be a Disney store now it’s a Funko store.
Was the Louisville Disney store the last one to maintain the 90s theming and decore?
I have a idea do you Toys “R” Us history videos in different locations like he did with Chuck E. Cheese’s start with Houston, Texas and then other locations each week
I remember the one in Westminister Mall (California, not Colorado)
Great video keep up the great work
Disney shouldn't be saying nothing about rent being high. Have u seen the cost of tickets, hotels, and not to say WDW and their cruises smh.
Man, I miss the Disney store
The Disney Store survived the remodel at Del Amo Mall but closed unexpectedly a year ago.
I miss mount plus more but I had no Olaf. My Disney store was in the 90s so I had Simba, Pluto, goofy Mickey’s Pluto buzz and woody and much more mine was in Wisconsin
I remember the Disney store. I had some good times back then before they started closing down. Mostly, I play with the princess wands with a mirror where the princesses told their iconic stories. It's still a sad shame that I never got a Disney imagination key to this day.
The one in Mall of America was closed and was replaced by a Warber Parker store (In which they sell glasses)
So we all in Louisville rn…. Not me I’m in mount Washington LMAO
I miss my Tucson Mall location it opened 1991 and it closed in 2020 😔
That was my store too. I miss it so much.😢
What is the next complete history of episode?
7:28. They were definitely not limited to Pink & Green. The later Piperail design had statues extensively, though I agree with it rivaling Plush Mountain. Heck the characters are what I miss most, and for whatever reason I didn’t have a Pink & Green, so my stores were straight to Piperail.
As for the front display, I saw other videos of different characters moving like Donald in a rocking chair. And at one point both had animatronics, at least in some cases.
Missed this type of Disney store.

Loved the vid!!
Awesome video.
Yay Disney store history 😊
Plz do the history of the Brandon Disney store
can u plsssss make a history of chuck e cheese in Canada video
For some reason the smashed Donald statue made me really sad😢
Maybe try to a full history of something like SHOWBIZ! I’m pretty sure it will be fun to record! (Also if you want to, you can give me a shoutout if you accept this idea suggestion! Can’t wait for the cec vid!)
Can u do radio disney next or what happened to their music label.
Can you do the I love Lucy store in Universal Studios.
The video format looks different. Was this made with CapCut?
It was made with both iMovie and CapCut

The Disney store is was my favourite store to go to at the mall so sad that its gone the store was so much better than the target Disney sections target is less magical and like the plush selection is crap there's basically nothing but basic Disney parks/shop Disney merch and they sell non disney parks merch their heck I still see toys from the trash lightyear movie
You know I kinda want a nickelodeon or cartoon network store happening now
