oh, fantastic! I'll keep at it!

I keep trying to use the beourguestlunch site to no avail - do things typically open up on that site?

Last time I went in September every park closed mid-day due to capacity issues, and believe it or not even the gift shops had 10 minute wait times to get in. Don't get me started on the 120min wait for pirates, or the 3 hour wait for Splash

While I'm sure I'll be judged by all the high and mighty folks on here, I am doing exactly that - taking my kid out of school a couple weeks after she starts so we can have a trip down to WDW when the crowds are the lightest.

So I sent an email in to WDW to see if I could get a response from the source. Here's my question: and here is the response I got back from Disney So it sounds to me like I am in the clear to wear the authentic shirt if I want to. Like I said though, I'll still be building a shirt for me...

I started the thread that was linked-to above regarding the ToT costume. It looks like themeparkconnection still has plenty of items, and has just listed another ToT shirt...

That's my thinking as well, but honestly to keep my and my daughter's costumes looking identical, and since I cannot find the trim used on the real costume, I plan to just replicate the shirts myself. That frees me up from having to get exact matches on the trims and the colors. I can just get...

here's what I heard back from the eBay seller "Good morning! We do not purchase any stolen goods. All of our items we purchase are logged and on file with the Orange County Sheriff's Office. This uniform was either bought directly from Disney due to surplus or change in style, or it was bought...

awwwwww crap! I sent a note to the seller on eBay asking what the deal was. This is a bummer - I figured since they had sold a lot of costumes and had a few currently for sale that these must be just retired surplus that Disney was selling off, much like the signage and stuff. well, looks...

yeah, that's the shirt I have (and the pants to match), but just because it's being sold, how can you be sure it's stolen? There's a lot of merchandise for sale that was used in the parks - from signs and plaques to whole monorail cars. I'm sure that stuff is just considered surplus, no?

you guys are freaking me out now! how can I tell if this is actually stolen?

I'm modeling my daughter's off of what this gal did - she and I have been trading emails on it. I'm just going to cross my fingers on it, and have a plan B in case we get stopped.

I'm hoping that since the ToT bellhops don't wear shorts they'll let me pass

It was themeparkconnection I will only be wearing the shirt from the costume that I got, as wearing those wool pants in early September weather would probably induce heat stroke. Same with my daughter - short sleeve shirt and shorts to match the original outfit. I had to make my own hat too...

I'd think the company would be in serious trouble, and probably be shut down if they were dealing in stolen goods. They've been operating for about 20 years so I think they're on the level. As far as getting into the event yes, I'm sure we'll be allowed in. But thanks for casting that debbie...

I love the old school Walt Disney World logo with the globe ears in the big D It reminds me of when Eastern used to be their partner airline

eBay! that place is pretty amazing.

Here's the trim. I've been posting it all over, including reddit's disney and sewing channels, as well as emailing a ton of fabric companies. I've also tried to find it at JoAnn's, Michael's AC Moore and have had no luck. I'll be heading to a big fabric store in Boston today at lunch with the...

She and I are going together as bellhops, and I have a ToT costume that was used at the parks, so I'd like it to be as close as possible.

I am in the process of building my daughter a Tower of Terror bellhop costume for Halloween and I am having a really hard time finding a match for the gold trim used on the uniform. I know this is a long shot for many reasons, but I am hoping someone reading this might know a person who works...
