Disney Ride Info. Help Please?!?!

[Wannabe Walt]

I am currently working on building a backyard version of either the Haunted Mansion at WDW, Pirates of the Caribbean at WDW, or Cinderella Castle. I am not sure which I will pick but I am leaning more toward the HM or CC. Tell me what you think! Also, If anyone has any elevation info or pics, rare info or pics, or any good places where to get pictures, information, etc. please tell me! Please tell me your opinion on why you picked what you picked!

Hi there, I collect a draw disney blueprints and know where to get plans for all the projects you're thinking of doing.

Haunted Mansion at WDW
22 pages of plans are available on ebay
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2171393840&category=138
they're 11x17 usually cost about $30-$40. They're also being sold by someone (I think it was the same guy) on the messageboards at doombuggies.com. Oddly enough it looks like someone else on ebay has taken the same drawings on 24x36 and is selling them for $15 a sheet

I'm just as happy with the 11 x17 sheets though

Cinderella Castle
There's a business who sells 4 elelvations on 24x36, you can see it on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2170970495&category=138
I thought when I bought from him it included a roof plan as well or you can go to his website http://www.theblueprintcollection.com/disney_blueprints.htm

Pirates of the Caribbean at WDW
blueprintplace also sells POTC plans but theyre not as good as the castle prints (has the canal layout and some of the sets but not a lot of detail) If you want to do POTC you would probably want to combne the info from that sheet with info from the plans for the DL version (same scenes, same scale and there's a lot more info on the DL version) The WDW POTC plans also don't have most of the line area.

Personally I would prefer to have a model of the castle in my back yard. If it was big enough it could be a gazebo. Of course if my yard was big enough I would build the entire park, but it's not

Let me know what you decide, and if you need any more info on your project I'm just a font of odd information on the buildings (as you can tell from my babbeling on)

Later

Ed

Thanks for the information! I agree with you on the Castle thing, but so far, everyone has voted for the Haunted Mansion!

I think Pirates of the Carribean would be cool!
