I have twinkle lights hanging up in my basement. They are a little smaller than my thumb (I'm 14). I got them from here...

Disney uses just the white ones, but they sell them in color here.
Hope this helps!:wave:
To get more results, do a google search for "c9 Twinkle" including the quotes and you'll get more choices!
Make sure you buy the "twinkle" ones. I think the clear ones on the page I game you aren't them, but the colored ones for sure are. Yeah, just double checked and the clear are on the page before that (page 4)
Again, not the same ones Disney uses, but thanks for the link anyway. C9 Bulbs are fairly easy to come by at any retail store such as Wal-Mart or Target. From the pics I posted, WDW's are clearly round.
Also, a child's eyeball? 2 things wrong with that comparison to size. 1, a child's eyeball is virtually the same size as an adults, being that the eyeball is one of the only parts of the human body that doesn't grow as a person gets older. (and I don't know how many of you have seen a full human eyeball, but it's about the size of a golfball.) 2, I touched these bulbs when I took the pics, and my original comparison of a man's thumb is extremely accurate. If an average grown man drew a circle on the end of his thumb as large as possible, you'd have the size pretty darn close. It's an odd size for a bulb, no doubt.
Anyway, I've read every post and visited every link posted in this thread thus far, and as of yet, no one has figured out where to get the correct lights.
To me, the most important thing is duplicating the slow and beautiful twinkle they have happening in the Disney trees. If you could get that happening with a different size bulb, it'd be just as cool.
I'll do some more looking and asking while I'm down there during the first week of December. If, for some reason, I have any new info, I'll be sure to post it.
