For the past three years, DCP's consumer electronics group, working closely with licensees and manufacturers, has pushed design and manufacturing boundaries by developing exceptional products that are at once stylish and functional. 2005 saw the launch of Disney Mix Sticks, an MP3 digital music player that allows kids to download music and gives them the option to also play music directly from memory cards. In 2006, a new line of consumer electronics inspired by the Disney/Pixar film Cars will prove that a TV can look like a car.

Disney Denim is a non-character Disney-branded line of apparel for kids that incorporates the magic and storytelling that only Disney can offer. In 2005, DCP secured placement for the brand at Carrefour, which will launch next spring as Disney Jeans in nearly 400 Carrefour stores across Europe.

The highly successful vintage apparel line, Disney Ink & Paint, inspired Disney Home to adapt the striking artwork originally used on T-shirts to create high-end art canvases. A line of six canvases featuring diamante Disney designs was launched in Europe in late 2005 and will expand to North America in 2006 with an array of home products at retailers such as Urban Outfitters.
