Missing the Gold

[Laufschneller65]

Is anyone else a little disapointed that all the gold is gone?
Personaly, I like most of the gold. the gold statues where not my favorite and neither was the mirror in the middle. But I pretty much liked the gold rapping up the spires and towers. It added a little flare that the castle doesn't usualy get. plus it mad it more atractive. I think they could maybe go back now and add a few gold touches here and there on the castle to better show off her detail.

I'll miss the gold on our next trip in December. I do hope that some of it will be up for sale on Mousesurplus.

I miss the gold also, I hope that they add some more gold to the castle when thet start painting.

I'll miss it, but I'll re-adjust to the classic castle when it is restored to its former glory.

all that glitters is not gold
often you have heard that told

at least that gold stuff wasn't as bad as that stupid birthday cake, me personally I prefer the caste o'natural so goodbye gold you haven't out lived your novelty, unlike a certain stupid wand, that just won't go away.

At least the castle is regaining it`s forced perspective

While I didn't hate the gold, I'm glad it's gone. The castle doesn't need to be pimped out. I liked it in connection with the big celebration, but I wouldn't want it there all the time. To me there's just something warming about the castle in its normal looking mode. I can't wait to see it after it gets repainted however.

A while ago we had a fun poll on here somewhere inquiring about everyone's favorite castle "look".

I'm sure I chose the gold trimmed castle as my favorite. I think the gold adds some "classy whimsical-ness" to the old gal. What I never liked was the oversized and under-engineered mirror that is so out of scale that it seems as if it could pull the whole front of the castle off if it leaned forward!

The gold trim was perfect for a fictinal castle that serves as the gateway to a land of fantasy. The light playing off the gold trim added a whole other dimension to the bulding.

I shall miss it. It was certainly one of the more acceptable things they have done to he castle over the years when you compare it to the cakes and toilet paper....

:lol:

Let me think about this. OK now I have thought about it and I don't miss it. You know what I think is that they should put some new paint on it. If you look at the castle there are fad marks on it.

I will miss the gold too, however seeing the castle now without the decorations will be great after so long being covered by the mirror.

I also loved the castle with the gold. I am sad to see it go. The mirror I wasn't too big on but the rest I just loved.

 

[head mouse]

Nope. Glad it's all gone. We are getting our castle back.

 

[disneycouple]

sorry i dont miss the gold and can not wait for it to be back to itself

 

[kcnole]

I could have lived with some of the gold staying, but that horrible mirror has got to go, go, go.

 

[~Tinkerbell~]

I really liked the gold. But then again, I only saw the castle with the gold! I think if (when!) I go back, the castle to me would probably look bare and empty. But pictures I've seen of the castle without the gold are nice too. I like both.

I like the gold around the spires, but the mirror and figures had to go.

I miss it!
