Vistors to Streetrat often request more information and specially pictures of My Best Friend is Jasmine by Lisa Ann Masoli (avaiable through Amazon.com) The book is 32 pages thick in a handy pocketformat so it’s easy to bring along on vacation. The story followes Jenna who, while picking appels from an overhanging apple tree branch, ends up on Rajah’s back. Princess Jasmine invites the poor hungry girl and her sibelings to stay at the royal palace for a while.

I uploaded high resolution images of Jasmine’s various outfits.

Another fine example of what you can do with a standard boring coloring page as inspiration. Made by DeviantArtist Bloodhaunt. Go check out her gallery full of other Disney Princess coloring pages turned into beautiful digital drawings.

In the category ‘what the !@#*&&^’ comes this Jasmine Cirgarette Case Lighter. Besides storing your smokes it can also light your cig’s. The seller also claims it can store your ID.

Then there’s the radio play re-tel of the movie released in a number of languages in many countries on various media like CD, cassette and I even came across an LP version one day. The play is from Austria in German and has pretty cover art marketing the kind princess and dashing hero.

Strolling off Ebay I came across this rare Aladdin spinoff radio play in German. It’s callled JAGOS RÜCKKEHR and seems to be starring Iago. Although I’m not able to translate the title my gut tells me it’s like Return of Jafar, Iago switches sides from evil henchman to good sidekick.
It’s released on a music casssete or MC which was what MP3 is today a way to have portable music back in the 80′s. The walkman is like the Ipod of the 80′s.

Seems I missed this one last year.
In Jasmine and the Star of Persia Aladdin and Jasmine travel to the far away kingdom once ruled by the kind Queen Dorri who whore the most magnificent purple amethyst after she died the jewel was locked away in a tall tower. Jasmine is determined to see this legendary jewel for herself.

The story is part of Lara Bergen’s Disney Princess: All That Glitters featuring Ariel, Aurora, Cinderella and Jasmine all on a quest to find jewels hence the name.

princealia posted scans in the LiveJournal agrabah community back in May 2009. I’ve taken the liberty to share a few with you here on Streetrat.

Michele pointed me to an auction of a very cute pin. Yes Disney didn’t forget, boys are fans too. From the same series come Peter Pan, Pinocchio, Dopey, Eric and Hercules plus Genie and Aladdin. It reminds of that boys oriantaed Disney Adventures line that wasn’t a success. The Disney Princess toddler pin collection for girls has Cinderella, Mulan, Snow White, Ariel, Belle and Aurora plus Jasmine.

Here’s a reminder that the best video game based on Disney’s Aladdin came from Virgin on the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive. Who can’t resist tapping along with Prince Ali (Agrabah Market level), One Jump Ahead (Agrabah Rooftops level) Arabian Nights (Sultan’s Dungon level) A Whole New World (ending and menu) and Friend Like Me is, naturellym played during the Inside the Lamp level. Actually I prefer the SNES version of A Whole New World over the Genesis one mostly because Capcom shows the magic carpet ride while Virgin only has Aladdin kissing Jasmine which was animated very smoothly just like the rest of the game.
For those wondering, there are ways to download music from Youtube. I used Free YouTube to MP3 Converter to get some instrumentals from my Youtube favorite list.

Did you know a Rajah Christmas Ornament existed? I didn’t either and now it’s mine (in two days I hope). It’s Christmas Eve and I realized I haven’t expended my Aladdin ornament collection in 2009. I have a few Kot wedding ornaments, the genie bee one, the genie lamp Santa hat one, the cute Jasmine with Rajah on carpet ornament and a Magic Carpet ride ornament. Back in ’07 I said to myself to finally start a Christmas Aladdin ornament collection, something I’ve been meaning to do for a decade or so and then to slowly expend it each year.

The seller doesn’t say much about the figure other then it’s measures but things like when it was made or who made it is nowhere to be found, can anyone help me out?

I see he/she sells a few genie and Aladdin ornaments and even the Sultan and Jafar as ornaments. Plus lots of other classic Disney characters and iconic characters from Pixar like Buzz and Woody and about every movie that followed.

LiveJournal member rebel princess posted scans of Royal Champions a cute Disney Princess booklet about horses starring Aurora, Ariel and our very own Jasmine. In the story The Desert Race the princess rides her horse Midnight against Aladdin’s steed who is powered by genie magic.
The stories of Aurora and Ariel look cute too and Ariel is human which doesn’t happen that often in Disney Princess merchandise.

You can try to download scans through Rapidshare although I wasn able, the site keeps asking to become a premium user. There are more pics in the replies over at d_princess.

Amazon sells the booklet is for around 10 US dollars. Dutch Bol.com has it for around 15 EURO.

The PC MS-DOS version of the Virgin Aladdin video game was by far the best of all the  ports to inferior consoles. It had higher resolution, something like 480 x 320, better graphics with more detail, smoother animation some of inbetweener’s that worked on the film contributed to the game a first in video game history and the game had stereo 44 kHz 16-bit sound with a bigger wavetable (pre-recorded music notes) than any of the consoles. Worth noting that at the time, we’re talking early 90′s, the PC was still developing itself into a game system and so things like soundcards weren’t yet integrated into the mainboard like today’s modern systems. Most common where Creative Sound Blaster 2.0 or Pro compatible cards.

d_princess … got a beauty cup and saucer set throught the Japanese edition of Yahoo!’s auctions. It seems stuff like this is being sold in the Toyko Disney themepark.

A futuristic looking commercial for Aladdin toys at McDonalds happy meals around 2004.

Promoting the Disneyland musical Aladdin: A Musical Spectacular

Mattel Aladdin and Jasmine dolls commercial around 1992. I have Genie sitting on a shelf for quite a few years now.

Kellogs Fruit Loops came with Aladdin coloring changing spoons in the mid 90′s. Check out the animation at the end looks like original to me.

More crunchy nugget free stuff came in a box of Captain Crunch because buried beneath was an Aladdin Fortune Top featuring Genie.

Burger King had Aladdin coloring chancing cups with the meals. Kids should come back often to collect all four. The tough rap guy is kind of lame now but back then it was cool.

The Kellogg’s Corn Flakes is probably the best known breakfast product. Like the others it had an Aladdin tie-in. They had a nice looking box and original animation in the TV commercial.
