Heyya Greg, DCA is a different sort of park from the more traditional Magic Kingdom across the road. I actually enjoyed it, though I know many people who see it more as a fun park than a Disney Park. Especially in the level of detail and theming, it looks a little sterile. Still, it has some great a...

I have played this album over and over and over... I put it on my iPod so I can listen to it on the train in the mornings on my way to work :) I was always a fan of Disney music from the animated movies, I just didn't realise how much original stuff was written for the parks too...I was missing out ...

Two Voice Actors Pass

Sad news this week - especially for fans of the Pooh series, with the passing of the voice actors of Tigger and Piglet - Paul Winchell and John Fiedler. Both gentlemen were in their 80's and passed away within 24 hours of each other. Paul Winchell, the voice of Tigger, was also known for his work as...

I collect McDonalds Disney Happy Meals. -James James, I read somewhere that the McDonalds / Disney contract is up for renewal and McDonalds is sounding the war-drums. It is not that they are entirely unhappy in producing Happy Meal stuff for Disney, they are just worried about the future quality of...

Ranks

Hiya Greg, do you intend adding message posting ranks to this board?

If so, we might need some input from everyone to come up with ideas for them.

even though I'm scared of heights and refuse to go on any ride that gets more than 3 feet off the ground Hey - me too. You should have seen me on the giant ferris wheel in California Adventure - it was the only ride that freaked me out, and we weren't in the cages that rock - it was gentle and civi...

Ahhh yes, eBay...the last temptation for Australian based Disneyana collectors. Della has been buying pins off ebay too. I was collecting Disney movie posters for a while, reproductions mainly but also a couple of originals (I have a great Lion King original from a theatre that I begged to for month...

I've got mixed feelings about a park in Australia. My first thought was wow - how good would that be, we could go whenever we like. Got a spare weekend? Let's head up to Disneyland... ...but then I think - one of the things that makes going to a Disney park so special for us is that they are so far ...

Photomosaics Jigsaws

Not exactly books, but I didn't know what else to classify them as. There has been a series of four 1000 piece Photomosaic Disney jigsaw puzzles release here in Australia. I first saw these about 5 years ago in Malaysia and kicked myself for not buying them. Then I saw them recently in the US, but d...

I had a hunt around Sydney stores during the week. Dymocks no longer had any copies, but Borders bookstore in Pitt Street and Kinokuniya bookstore in George Street both had copies for $59.99 each. There is a Borders in Albert Street Brisbane - they might have a copy there. Looks like all the cheap o...

Heyya James - it is a shame you can't make it but as a fellow Harry Potter fan, I can sympathise. I will also be lined up at Big W on that Saturday morning awaiting my copy - just like two years ago. Am I excited...:D...you betcha! I should get a couple of chapters read before heading off to the Dis...

So you're actually playing with someone in Disneyland? Something like that. You play with one other person online, shooting 3D bad guys. Then, if you or your team mate hits a particular target - special targets in Disneyland light up. If players in Disneyland hit those special lit targets, you then...
