Characters in need of a redesign

Let's talk about characters who need a redesign...

For example, Abu. Something just strikes me as disturbing about him... I can't put my finger on it...

Vanellope kind of freaks me out, too. I think it's a combination of the size, the expression on her face, and her hair.

Some characters I would like to see changed :

Jafar & Ratcliffe. Could they make them a face character? Or at least fix their mouth areas it doesn't look right.

Judge Frollo's costume is just disturbing in general. They should make him a face character.

They should improve Quasimodo's Costume and the Country Bear's.

Then again none of these characters (apart from the Country Bears) make daily appearances.

Do they still use those horribly disturbing suits of the Pleasure Island kids half-turned into donkeys?

I laugh really hard every time I see the Beast's costume. I know it's probably very expensive to make, but when he's standing next to Belle - it just looks so hilarious to me. And kind of creepy, actually...

The Jessie and Woody costumes are SO BAD. I saw a video on Instagram once of Woody walking and I felt second hand embarrassment.

But also a question I've always wondered: how do they determine who is a face character and who isn't? Why is Captain Hook a costume while Maleficent is a face character? -shrugs-

Here's what bugs me... Two of the Three Little Pigs have happy expressions, but Practical Pig always looks ticked off.

Lilo and Stitch look weird, too... Lilo's expression and Stitch's small head just creep me out.

The cg characters must be so hard to get right, but Woody, Jessy, and Buzz deserve better. I'd like to see their costumes brought to the level of Mickey and friends.

There are actually very few characters that look so amazing that I'm not kind of wishing they could upgrade them. The parks get the design of many things right, but for me, costuming isn't one.

Redesigned or not.... I'd just like to see more of them in the parks.
I'd rather they look more cartoony than human. Now, if they were redesigned for size and comfort and designed to be more accommodating so more CM's could wear them... I'm all for it.

Clarabelle looks good to me. Cartoony and well sculpted.

Well, perhaps not too bad from that angle, but I've seen her in the Christmas parade, and truly, gahhh!!!! I think both she and Horace need to be redesigned to look like their black-and-white retro versions.

Here's the other angle I spoke of:

Have you also noticed that they will reuse costumes to make other characters....

Originally Uncle Scrooge looked like this...

Now that there is a newer costume for Scrooge..They changed him to Ludwig Von Drake..

However there was a Decent Version of Ludwig that was used in The World According To Goofy Parade in the 90s...Shame they never brought this one out..
