A 40th Celebration Bear??? Watch it Mouskedude, you're starting to think like a Disney suit. If they read these threads you may be getting a job offer soon. :wink:
Hey, I didn't say I liked the idea...! :shock: I'm just anticipating what they might do because... (in my best Julia Childs voice...) I'm on to their wicked ways... :lol: :lol: :lol:

The job offer might be nice, though. :mrgreen:
Hey, that's it! M-dude says all this jargon to hook the Disney folks in, they offer him a job and then the "true" side of M-dude comes out, he gets rid of all those money-hungry suits and hires the MM's and then....voila! The parks are in much better shape and people are happier because it's like the good ol' days!!!! :D :twisted: :lol:

Hmmm...the MM's in charge of marketing the parks??? That could be dangerous, now couldn't it? ;) 8-)

There will be merchandise for it most likely. They did have stuff for the 35th in 2006. I think there might be a brief mention of it and maybe a weekend of small festivities, but let's wait 10 years. I suspect a MAJOR celebration in the works for WDW's 50th.

As an update: Some early merchandise could possibly make it out for the start of the year, if not sooner. The merchandise tag for the 40th Anniversary is out and has been spotted. Supposedly it has the classic WDW logo and makes a lot of references to how things used to look. I'm suspecting a lot of unique merchandise so Disney can earn some more $$$

I bought a shirt down there last winter w/ the classic "Walt Disney World" on it w/ Mickey in the background. I love that simple logo.

I like the vintage stuff too. But I'm not crazy about the "ringed" t-shirts, the ones with the different color ringing the sleeve ends and neck. I don't know why since I am sure I had them when they were just "original" and not "vintage" :?

Here's a pic of the tag on the 40th Anniv. merch. Also one of the items. Personally I love the logo with the 40 inside the "Big D" (and I don't mean the Cowboys!):

Mousekedittos! I want a shirt with that logo on it! Hey, while you're there with your mom, see if you can hunt one up and let me know where it is so I can go straight there and buy it in December!
