Imagineer That Collection Revealed for D23 2026

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Mickey’s of Glendale just revealed another D23 2026 collection, and this one is built for people who care about how the magic gets made. The Imagineer That Collection is inspired by Tom Morrow 2.0 and the fan-favorite Disney series of the same name, available on YouTube and Disney+.

True to the spirit of the series, the collection is full of details to discover. Subtle nods to Tom Morrow 2.0 are woven throughout, and several pieces are designed to be customized.

Here’s every piece in the collection, the standout item, and how to actually get into Mickey’s of Glendale at D23.

Quick Summary

• The Imagineer That Collection is inspired by Tom Morrow 2.0 and the Disney series of the same name
• Subtle references to the series are hidden throughout the pieces
• The standout item is a customizable Lug bag with interchangeable straps and coin purses
• The lineup also includes T-shirts, baseball caps, a water bottle, and accessories
• One T-shirt uses moisture-wicking athletic jersey fabric — practical for a show floor day
• Available at Mickey’s of Glendale at D23, August 14–16, via virtual queue

What Is the Imagineer That Collection?

The collection draws from Tom Morrow 2.0 and the Disney series of the same name, which streams on YouTube and Disney+.

Several pieces are designed to be customized — putting the creative choice in your hands, much like an Imagineering project itself.

That’s a neat piece of design thinking. A collection about the people who design Disney experiences, where you make design decisions yourself, is the kind of conceptual layer Mickey’s of Glendale does well.

Who Is Tom Morrow 2.0?

For anyone who hasn’t followed the series: Tom Morrow is a longtime Disney parks character with roots going back to the original Flight to the Moon attraction at Magic Kingdom, later reappearing as the robotic host in Innoventions and the ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter pre-show.

Tom Morrow 2.0 revives the character as a host for content about Imagineering itself. It’s a deep-cut choice for a merchandise collection, and that’s exactly the point — Mickey’s of Glendale customers are the audience most likely to get the reference.

The Standout: A Customizable Lug Bag

The headline piece is a customizable Lug bag with interchangeable straps and coin purses, letting you mix and match to build a look that’s your own.

Lug collaborations have a following of their own, and the interchangeable component approach is the smartest possible execution of the collection’s customization theme. You’re not buying one bag. You’re buying a system.

Practically, this is also the piece most likely to sell out first and the one worth prioritizing if you only have time for one purchase. Interchangeable accessories mean the base bag and the add-on pieces sell separately, and incomplete sets are how people end up chasing components after the event.

The Rest of the Collection

The lineup includes:

• T-shirts, including one in moisture-wicking athletic jersey fabric
• Baseball caps
• A water bottle
• Additional accessories with hidden details and Imagineer That references throughout

The Athletic Jersey Tee Is the Practical Pick

Don’t overlook this one. A moisture-wicking athletic jersey shirt is a genuinely useful thing to own if you’re spending three days on a convention floor in Anaheim in August.

Convention centers run warm, the show floor is crowded, and you’ll be standing in virtual queue lines outdoors. A cotton tee is a worse choice than most people realize until they’re wearing one at 3pm on day two.

Buy it to wear at the event, not just to take home.

Where This Fits in the Mickey’s of Glendale Lineup

The Imagineer That Collection is the latest in a series of Mickey’s of Glendale reveals ahead of D23 2026, with more still to be announced.

Previously revealed collections include:

• The Walt Disney Imagineering Color Block Collection
• The Muppets Studio Signature Collection
• The Disney .YNSD brand debut

That’s four distinct collections from one store, with more coming. Mickey’s of Glendale is doing more at this D23 than it has at previous events, which raises the stakes on getting in.

How to Get Into Mickey’s of Glendale at D23

Mickey’s of Glendale will be available at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, running August 14–16 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California.

Access is via virtual queue, with standby opening after all boarding groups are redeemed.

A few things that matter:

• Join the virtual queue the moment it opens each day. Mickey’s of Glendale is consistently one of the hardest stores to get into at D23, and boarding groups fill fast.
• Standby is a real option, but a late one. It only opens after all boarding groups are redeemed, which typically means later in the day with reduced stock.
• The store is cashless. Have a card ready.
• The Pin Store is a separate virtual queue. If you want pins, that’s an additional line to plan for, and new designs drop each day.
• Shop the Lug bag first. Work down your list in order of what sells out fastest, not what you’re most excited about.

The Bottom Line

The Imagineer That Collection brings Tom Morrow 2.0 to Mickey’s of Glendale at D23 2026, headlined by a customizable Lug bag with interchangeable straps and coin purses, plus T-shirts, caps, a water bottle, and accessories full of hidden references.

Join the virtual queue early, go for the Lug bag first, and grab the athletic jersey tee to actually wear on the floor. With four Mickey’s of Glendale collections revealed and more coming, this store is going to be the hardest ticket at D23.
