Nice! I don't remember seeing the Cinderella castle topper before :D
The castle is my favorite thing at Disney,so I had to get it .Found it last year at the Emporium!! I call the castle MY castle instead of Cinderella's Castle. I even told Cinderella when my Daughter met her last year I wanted to live in it!! :D

Thanks Amy for telling me of this thread. I don't have anything yet. On our last car we had the MGM Mickey hat antenna topper and the Four Parks One World bumper sticker. On our present car we don't have anything Disney yet. I wanted SIMBA1 on my plates, but it's taken, ugh! Here are the only possibilities that are available...."S1MBAI" or "SIMBAI" or "SIMB1". Any suggestions?

Hmmm, none of those read quite right...I suppose the S1MBAI would be the closest. I'm surprised they would let you have one that similar to the other SIMBA1 though...Have you tried looking at other plate designs and seeing if that makes a difference in the SIMBA1 being unavailable? In our state, some of the plate designs don't allow as many characters so it might show unavailable but if you try a different plate design (background) it is available...just a thought.

Yeah I know what you mean about not reading right. Yeah I didn't try other plates just the type we have which is Choose Life so I wouldn't want to change plates just for the Simba1 obsession :D

I was like man I so want these but then I remembered that we don't have antenna on our car, ugh! I still would like to know which ones you have for the different seasons. That's a really cool idea. I think I'm gonna buy the bumper sticker I saw on eBay that states "my other car is a monorail" :mickey:

That's pretty awesome! F1gment has 3 antenna toppers now, but they ride inside her car. I sort of encouraged that after I spent some time looking in the woods down the road when a tree reached out and gobbled up her first topper :shock: I found it, but it took a while...

Nice reason to go back for a trip...but it only lasted one year? That doesn't seem like it was a very high quality decal :(

Oh! Guess the winter temps in Michigan offset the outrageous summer temps here. I've had a princess decal on my vehicle for at least 3 years and it still looks brand new. Of course I put it on the inside too because princesses shouldn't have to be outside in the heat or cold ;) :lol:

that decal was meant for the outside of the glass [which side they put the adhesive], and anyways the tint on the glass of my montana makes things stuck to the inside unreadable outside...

Ahhhh. My princess was meant for the outside as well, but she didn't have any writing which allowed me to put it on the inside. My tint isn't so dark as yours I guess. It is quite visible in my rearview mirror though since it is on the inside which makes me smile :D
