Finally, what we have all been waiting for!!

Geez, I'm a pretty optimistic person about Disney, but this is a major disappointment in terms of use of space. Whatever happened to the idea of a shop ("Triton's Treasures") in that area?

Also, what is up with the empty doorways? In the smaller section between the fruit stand and the main DVC entrance, there are two doorways that look empty -- is there anything inside there other than leading over to the DVC kiosk space? Are they going to put something there -- maybe a MyMagic+ station or something?

If there was a competition for who could build the most amazing facades with nothing worthwhile inside, Disney would win by a mile. But, I guess this is fine as the choices were DVC or generic merchandise that was out of place. Why Disney isn't selling $25 dinglehoppers here, though, is beyond me...

I hope I can get a FP+ for viewing this building!

I guess a well-themed DVC kiosk beats a non-themed one?

Well, the area can now pride itself on two "best themed" awards for the resort:

1. Best themed restrooms: Tangled restrooms
2. Best themed DVC stand: Little Mermaid area

Congratulations to Fantasyland on these honors. They are well deserved and have been (much too) long in the making.

Everybody, on the count of 3... 1... 2... 3... UGH!!!

the walls coming down, little by little, is a good thing.

 

[wsmith1978]

Absolutely At least the rest that's revealed will be more exciting!

Really? All the sarcasm for construction walls coming down? Dvc is probably the first to open because it is the simplest to complete. If nothing else opens in the area then forgive me.

There is nothing else left to open on that side now.

So, there will be no gift shop tied to the Little Mermaid, huh? I'm actually quite surprised it ended up that way with both the ride and M&G in the area and how well princess merch seems to move.

I suppose DVD memberships move faster. :shrug:

Don't forget Be Our Guest! It's easily the best-themed cafeteria.

Well it seems that was the last of the walls coming down until the full final reveal of the mine train.

I might as well pile on. It's pretty disheartening to see such a beautiful space wasted on something so mundane. There will be lots of children asking, ....'What's in there'? , only to be told, 'Nothing'..... :-(

Never thought I would be disappointed that Disney DIDN'T build a gift shop.

Takes a lot of single hopper sales to make up for one DVC sale. They need one in new Fantasyland. This is their latest and greatest, what better place to sell in? "Look at the beauty and craftsmanship here. We will do the same at our new Polynesian DVC Villas."

Doesn't mean I like it but it is a necessary evil. I concur that a themed DVC sales booth is better than an eyesore.
