....must be rich! After having the book last summer when visiting WDW and everyone who saw it asking where I got it, I noticed this trip that Disney is selling it EVERYWHERE!! I saw so many people with the book, this guy must be making out! I guess Disney saw that they had missed out and this guy must be getting a good sum of $$ to have it sold in the parks!

It's a good book. I like to read it while in queues. I'll read about where they hidden mickeys in the ride I'm about to go on are, that way they are fresh in my head while I ride the ride and can look for them easier.

I love that book! I bought it last year after seeing someone with it in MGM. It makes the lines go by faster. One week to go and I can use it again!!! :sohappy:

I bought and used mine in May and I had at least 10 people stop me and ask me where I got it from. We also used it on our Keys to the Kingdom tour. Our tour guide was interested in seeing which ones were listed and even he wasn't aware of a lot of them. It was a fun addition to the tour.

I saw it a couple places (more noticed than looking for it) from 8/7-8/17. I was surprised to see it but then I think about how Disney sell's the Birnbaum book too.

I got the book at the Buy The Book store next to the SciFi in MGM. It was $11.95 at the parks. I bought it last year and it was hard to find. The CM told me that when the shipment came in on Tuesday it was sold out by Wednesday. I must have had 25 people ask me where I got it. It was fun in line looking up the ride and finding out where the hidden mickeys were. Then on the ride we would all try to find them and take pictures of them. It made the time in line go by really fast and everyone around us got in on it too. The guy must be selling a bundle of books. I can't believe Disney did not come up with the idea.

Hopefully he comes out with a new edition. Since we have been looking for Hidden Mickeys we have found several that were not in the book.

Disney hasn't really officially acknowledged whether or not hidden Mickeys appear in certain attractions. By publishing a book about it, they would be admitting it. By selling the book, they are merely profiting off distribution of a book that they haven't acknowleged to be true or not. But does selling the book acknowledge the existence of hidden Mickeys?

I saw that book in DTD at virgin megastore for like $11.

I was gonna buy it, but I figured whats the use when our vacation was up(the last), and I had spent like over $300 dollers on monorail accessories. Maybe Ill buy it when me and my dad go next weekend. We'll be there for three days but for our next family trip in december, Ill be ready.

Very cool book!! I bought it last year for my ten year old son because he gets antsy waiting in lines even for a short time. He loved it...gave him something to look forward to!! It created a lot of fun for the whole family!
