An update that I hope will be helpful to many. I finally found a way to get Topolino in the US. There is a company, based in NY, which imports many magazines from all around the world, Topolino included. They offer 6 or 12 months subscriptions. If you call them, you can also get a 3 months subscription.
I am trying their service and it works very well. Topolino is released in Italy on Wednesday. They receive it on Saturday. They mail it to me on Monday and I receive it on Friday the week after its original release. Pretty good.
Here is the link of the company:

Thanks much for the link, botolo! And I see they also offer subscriptions to the French Mickey Parade Geant. Their timing is very impressive (especially given my recent discovery that the French Disney Picsou comic magazines arrive at stores in Canada FIVE MONTHS after the release date!).

Hello! I'm new here just this evening. I was browsing google for any information on Italian Disneys and found this forum. I'm an avid comic collector and do some selling on Ebay as well to support my hobby, (seller name "xanderryan" just as here on the forum), but Italian Disneys are barely found there. I'm not in the market for them, I actually have a comic long box full of Topolino digest sized comics from #962 - #1131 and a copy box with paperback sized Italian Disney titles and larger versions of Almanacco Topolino. I invested in a dream comic collection, 25000+ books, all unread copies, mostly mainstream superhero stuff, but there were pretty much anything you could think of from the 60's -80's. The gentleman bought locally in Indiana and bought in multiples and just stacked them in his farm house. We had a common friend and that was how it happened, about 5 years ago. He had some obscure stuff and some foreign language books as well, which he had a bookstore set aside copies for him while he worked in downtown indianapolis. He pretty much bought anything paper and comic or horror related at that time. They were in his attic so they aren't perfect, but not bad for as old as they are, and unread, so they're pretty tight at the bindings. That was long winded, but I wanted to give some background on what I'm trying to sell. I figure you Disney "enthusiasts" would know what these were and see if I could garner some interest in them with any Italian comic readers or collectors. I estimate around 125 Topolino Comics, 36 Almanacco Topolino, 24 varied title paperbacks, 2 smaller pamphlet thickness, and just a couple that may not be Italian. There is some duplication, but not too bad. There will be a few that have more storage wear than others, but for the most part they would be the "comic grading" equivalent to VF range on the whole. Any interest in these, feel free to contact me through the posting, or you can "ask a question" through any of my eBay listings to verify it's me. I don't have them listed currently, but that's why I'm starting this. I would rather sell them as a collection and to someone who would love to have them, instead of a re-seller. Thanks for reading this. Hope to talk to someone soon. My name is Dane, by the way.
