Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary Card #144 Mad Tea Party - Pink Shimmer Foil Parallel: A Very Merry Fantasyland Treasure!
Welcome to the Most Wonderful Party in Fantasyland!
Hey there, fellow Disney card collectors! It is Tilly, and today I am absolutely spinning with excitement - and that is before I even step into a teacup! We are talking about one of my favorite corners of the entire Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary set: Card #144, the Mad Tea Party from the Concept Art theme section, wrapped up in the most dreamy Pink Shimmer Foil parallel you have ever laid eyes on. Grab your imaginary cup of tea and settle in, because this one is a gem worth celebrating. 🎴
About the Card: A Very Merry Design
Card #144 - Mad Tea Party - is part of the Concept Art theme within the base set of 2025 Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary. The Concept Art cards are something truly special in this release. Rather than pulling from park photography, these cards go back to the roots - early artistic visions of Disneyland's most beloved attractions. For the Mad Tea Party, that means swirling teacup sketches, soft pastel washes, and that unmistakably whimsical energy that makes Fantasyland feel like a storybook come to life.
Now layer that gorgeous Concept Art illustration with the Pink Shimmer Foil parallel treatment, and you have something that practically glows in your hands. The Pink Shimmer Foil finish catches light in the softest, most enchanting way - it is warm and rosy, with a shimmer that feels completely at home on a card celebrating a ride built for laughter and spinning and pure joy. The foil adds dimension to the illustration without overwhelming it, letting the Concept Art charm shine right through.
It is worth noting that the Pink Shimmer Foil parallels are exclusive to Value Blaster boxes in the Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary release. That makes them a fun and very accessible pull for collectors who want a shimmery piece of the set without hunting for numbered tiers.
About the Set: 70 Years of the Happiest Place on Earth
The full Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary set is a love letter to the park that started it all. Released in 2026 to honor Disneyland's 70th anniversary, this set is packed with themed sections including Timeline, Concept Art, Then and Now, and Snack Time - yes, there are cards dedicated to Disneyland snacks and they are pure magic. For Fantasyland fans, the Mad Tea Party section is especially rich, with both Concept Art and Then and Now cards documenting how the attraction has evolved from the park's opening in 1955 all the way to today.
The parallel rainbow in this set is also extensive. Pink Shimmer Foil comes in at two per seven Value Blaster packs, making it an approachable tier that set builders and character collectors alike will be chasing consistently. Above it sits Rainbow Foil, Green Foil /199, Aqua Electric Dots /150, Blue Foil /99, 70th Anniversary Foil /70, Gold Foil /50, and all the way up to the one-of-one FoilFractor. If you are building a full rainbow run of the Mad Tea Party, this Pink Shimmer is your delightful and colorful starting point. 🏰
Some cards just make you feel like a kid again - like you are spinning in that teacup with the wind in your hair and not a care in the world. That is exactly what this Pink Shimmer Foil does for me every single time I look at it.
A Little Fantasyland Memory
I have to share this because it ties in perfectly. On one of my Disneyland visits, I made it a point to ride the Mad Tea Party at dusk, right as the park lights started to come on and the sky turned that gorgeous deep blue. The teacups were glowing with color, the music was floating through Fantasyland, and I remember thinking - this is it. This is exactly what Walt wanted people to feel. When I pulled a Mad Tea Party Concept Art card from my Value Blaster box and saw that Pink Shimmer Foil shimmer under my lamp, I had that exact same feeling all over again. Cards are magic like that. 💖
Who Should Chase This Card?
The Mad Tea Party Pink Shimmer Foil is a wonderful addition for set builders working toward a complete parallel run of the Topps Disneyland 70th Anniversary base set, for Fantasyland enthusiasts who want every card representing their favorite land, and for collectors who love the Concept Art style and appreciate how beautifully the early vision of Disneyland translates onto the card format. Park fans especially will adore the story this card tells - from a concept sketch on an animator's desk all the way to a beloved attraction that millions of guests have experienced for 70 years.
How to Store and Display It
For a shimmer foil parallel like this, I love slipping it into an Ultra Pro Snap Card Frame for display - it sits perfectly and that clean frame really lets the pink foil catch the light beautifully on a shelf or desk. If you are working through the full set and organizing your parallel run card by card, a set of Ultra Pro Card Storage Box organizers keeps everything dust-free and neatly sorted while you track down the rest of your rainbow. And do not forget to pop it into Collectiblz and mark it as Have - there is something so satisfying about watching that completion bar tick upward! ✨
Whether you are a Fantasyland devotee, a Disneyland 70th completist, or simply someone who finds joy in a beautifully shimmer-foiled card, Card #144 Mad Tea Party deserves a spot in your collection. Happy collecting, and may your blaster boxes be full of pink shimmer magic!
