News Talking Mickey to leave Magic Kingdom

[larryz]

Say they replaced him with a imposter mouse simple

Or you can say those roaming herds of feral cats got his tongue...

So sad and disappointing.

This is another step in the trend we’ve all been seeing... Prices go up and experienced cut short.

I’m sure talking Mickey will return to M&G but only at premium-ticket events.

No. This would be a final move.

Are there still surveying cast members in the parks? I used to avoid them at all costs. Now, I'm going to hunt down every single one I can find. If they are still out there, of course.

There was a week and a half ago.

My bets will go for private events.

Word on the street is that Mickey will only talk for shows, no more talking for media or private events. Just a rumor as far as I know right now. I really don't think the company know 100% what they are planning to do just yet, other than save some dough at TST.

He will still talk for media events as far as I have been told. Private events likely depend on how much the person holding the event is willing to pay.

From what I've seen they just normally use The Articualted one's that just blink and mouths move but no words coming out of them...

True because the audio is all recorded anyways. I would imagine though people could get talking mickey for private events if they pony up the money.

Looks like they are going back to 2009 approach with the moving heads back when they were first seen at Dream Along With Mickey.

Hearing? From whom?

Strong rumors? What makes them 'strong'?

Leaving? To go elsewhere or to be mothballed?

The rumor originated from The Site That Shall Not Be Named. The same one that gets censored on this forum when you write or .

No, not at all. They posted the rumor on Jan 15. The OP of this thread posted Jan 5. My question was directed at the OP.

Sorry, I did not see those dates, and assumed this was started in response to the article on the unmentioned website.

I believe the articulated heads in Dream Along were first rolled out in 2007, actually.

This whole thing is just sad. Not very surprising at this point, but sad nonetheless.

I read these two comments (this and the one you're quoting) and got extremely excited, and hopeful for the world, in general.
Then I remembered what thread I'm in.
Then I remembered why I've been systematically destroying my liver.
Back to my regularly scheduled drinking.

Even Well before that...They were actually introduced 6 months before they premiered in MK on the Disney Live Tour Mickey's Magic Show in April 06 the Castle Show got them 6 months after that...

One of the sites that must not be named has thrown out May 12th as the day Mickey loses his voice for good.
