shortly after the rabbit starred in his black and white animated silent shorts between 1927 and 1928, he was successfully able to sell merchandise for universal: a chocolate-covered marshmallow candy bar, a stencil set, and a pin-backed button. not long before disney acquired the rights to oswald, universal started marketing the character actively overseas. disney slowly reintroduced him with merchandise such as shirts, figurines and a dvd with 13 of his original cartoons. in 2004 and 2005, oswald products became popular in japan, and were primarily made available as prizes in ufo catchers and as official merchandise in universal studios japan, where he was featured as part of the woody woodpecker cast of characters line-up. typically manufactured by taito and/or medicom, these products included puppets, inflatable dolls, keyrings, and watches. they were generally based on a navy-blue version with yellow shorts of the original disney/iwerks character, and due to disney's popularity in japan, he was marketed as a walt disney creation. oswald made his first disneyland appearance at tokyo disneyland on march 31, 2010 as an easter float. at the magic kingdom in walt disney world, a poster of oswald can be seen at the town square theater where mickey mouse is available for meet and greets. also inside mickey's meeting area, a doodle of oswald and mickey can be seen. clothing products are also available at disneyland paris in walt disney studios park. as of october 4, 2017, oswald now has a service station at disney california adventure that sells oswald merchandise including oswald ears, shirts, coats, mugs and key-chains.
