I was talking about the blue shirts. The paisely goes far beyond my laughing place. :eek: :hurl:

The thing with the purple paint (on the MILF building :lookaroun) is that it only is painted on the entrance side. The rest is completely white.

There were a few slight color scheme changes, but I noticed the condition of the TTA more....chipped white paint, rusty tracks, etc. Sure its a nice leasurly ride through tomorrowland, but it needs help badly.

Interesting that with the stitch stage construction walls up, guests get to walk right toward the CoP :lookaroun :D

Also, the CoP sign itself.....the gear that has the numbers on it....has changed to a slip of paper or something that says "2009" on it. Doesn't look very tacky, but certainly very different.

Ah yes, the TTA. Yeah, its showing its age. I remember being evac'd from it a while back and was appalled at the conditon of it in some areas.

If anyone can get pics of ANY of the recent retro merchandise around WDW, can you please get pics if possible for those of us who live far away?? Or if anyone has a link to any threads that have discussed/shown the merchandise?!?

Thanks!

Awesome shots Expo_Seeker40, it's too bad though to see the Galaxy Palace Theater going away. Those treats though look great, I want one now! :lol: Great pics!

Wouldn't read anything into CoP getting any TLC in the future at all ... Jungle Cruise was supposed to be next on the list, but when Space got all scaled back plans were put on hold and I haven't heard a thing at all.

I have no problem seeing Galaxy Palace go, but when it is for exec/manager parking I got a huge issue with it. And the whole 'it's only temporary' line is just that ... after all Mickey's Birthdayland was temporary 21 years ago.

While I like the retro merchandise, I'd like to see some kewl NEW stuff. It's so easy and lazy to just go through the files and say 'let's remake that' ... just think soon we'll have 1990s stuff return as 'retro' ...


Anyway, interesting update/pics/comments ... thanks!

It's so awesome to see something that's frozen since 1986...:sohappy:
With the exception of Mickey's 60th Birthday Image that's being used..:lol:

if you enter the main street exposition hall, go all the way to the right...past the pins, the merchandise, etc...keep going right past the desks for the photopass, and then you'll be in a room with a glass display case of photos I think taken by kodak over the years of the wdw resort, at the end of this room is a curtain and a tinnnnny little sign that says castmembers only :lookaroun if you zig zag through the corridor you enter another room used for taking pictures with characters, past this room is one more curtain, look through the curtain and on your left is the mural. If a CM catches you, well perhaps you were looking for a restroom or a churro cart :lol:

Don't talk any children with you if you decide to do this. They might see something they don't want to see. It could be a bit traumatic.
