Thanks for sharing! Hmm I don't know. Look at their tongues, a lot of black in there vs the SDL heads we've seen. As for the eyes, hard to tell isn't it? The new ones might be more oval than these in the pics.

She does not have to be played by a girl. While it's somewhat unusual for a man to be approved for Minnie, it does happen. Gender isn't a factor in costume approvals - as long as you look right in it, no one cares if you're a boy or a girl.
Wow, that's extremely disturbing! I get that it doesn't matter for Mickey since he's a small character who's all covered up, but I've never seen a Minnie without dainty and feminine arms and legs. The concept of a man-Minnie makes me shudder. I have to look into this now.

For whatever reason, I'm reminded of the Mr. B Natural debate from MST3K. (EDIT: Time stamp feature not working; Go to the 23 minute mark if you want to see it.)

Was looking at the concept art again and realized that the costume previewed that was supposed to be for MRFF is not the same costume or even similar to the either of the concept arts.

Progress!!!!

Looks like the stage is starting to come back slowly!

Form WESH 2 yesterday: https://twitter.com/weshchopper2/status/732551891683581956

The vid also has great shots of DAK and Epcot!

Also today(I think): https://twitter.com/Rhennacantsingg/status/732709462730022912

So far, it looks the same as DAWM and the concept art.
Its my imagination or they are just redoing the OLD stairs and old circular "towers" like they were before? o_o
Have they upgraded those with new tech or it was just a new rebuild?

When I'm looking at these platforms without the arches, they don't look half bad. Just keep the arches away and have the platforms as is.

I will never understand why TDO just can't have steps like this still. Anyone with eyes can see that the golden arches and railings feel as if they came straight out of a Polly Pocket Playset.
That reminds me of the castle shows at Tokyo where it uses steps if I remember correctly. That depends on the show though. I remember seeing them during the Valentine's Day show starring Minnie,Clarice,Marie and Daisy that I stumbled upon sometime in 2006 or 2007.

The lift made the arches tolerable. If Disney were smart they would have installed both the tower stages and the arches to lower into the stage when they weren't being used so the castle wasn't blocked all the time.

I'm the minority on this thread, but me personally I like the arches. I doubt Disney installed a retractable lift for the towers.
