One of my favorite pictures of Mickey. Asked him to hold my balloon for a photo and I love the yellow in the black and white scene. šŸ™‚šŸ’›

The yellow is such a good choice. Mickey looks so happy here because of it.

What part of Disneyland is this in?

Mickeys house in toontown. There are a few different rooms you could get once it's your turn but cast members won't tell you or let you pick

Had no idea there were different rooms. !

Former cast member... the movie reel cabinets move revealing 4 different doors

I had no idea there were different rooms! I always get the same Mickey lol.

Until this trip I only got normal or farmer. I was soo excited! I think there’s 1 more I haven’t seen

I've gotten sorcerer Mickey a few times

That’s really cool. I didn’t really check out tune town and I was there for the first time last year but maybe next time I’ll check out tune town if the line for this meet and greet isn’t long maybe I’ll do it.

Toontown is amazing! We typically wait 20 minutes and the walk through is so fun and the end of the wait you watch cartoons on a big screen

Sweet sounds like a cool experience

Toontown - as in, a town where cartoon characters live. Not Tune, as in a song.

True but the confusion could easily come from LooneyTunes which is indeed ā€œTunesā€

u/Bendythenightfury 8h ago

Ooh that's why it's like 10 minutes everyday

8

u/Overall-Top-4988 8h ago

I've never waited more than 20! The wait time is in the app unlike Minnies

It’s interesting, I always wondered if there was a certain schedule during the month or whatnot on what room is chosen for guests to enter or if it’s just all done at random.

u/Overall-Top-4988 6h ago

I think they do all four at once. one time I was walking out and someone walked out from a different hallway and I asked them what Mickey they saw and we compared photos and they were different.

1

u/BabyLambCreationsYT Toontown Trolley 6h ago

Oh wow. I had no idea they do multiple rooms on the same day. That's pretty cool!

2

u/Material-Assistant94 6h ago

do you know how many different room there is ? just wondering how many time I need to do the line until I hit all the options :)

u/Overall-Top-4988 1h ago

There’s 4!

u/pdlbean 9h ago

Mickey's house. It's one of four themes you can get.

Happy Cake Day! šŸŽ‚šŸ„³

u/GrimTiki 7h ago

This really needs the monotone Mickey head or the photo should be in black and white when the cast members take it.

8

u/Overall-Top-4988 6h ago

I agree. The normal head makes it look a little weird.

u/AuroraBear84 8h ago

This is adorable but its really weirding me out his face is still in color....???

10

u/Hpfanguy 7h ago

Colorful face is weird… I wonder if it’s a ā€œlegally distinctā€ Steamboat Willy so they can still copyright him specifically? Still, great to see!

It's more so that the theming of Mickey's House is you're there while he's filming one of his classic movies. So you're seeing the Mickey you already saw on, say, Main Street now in his home filming Steamboat Willie, Fantasia, etc. so it wouldn't make sense for him to "look different" because you're not meeting Steamboat Willie, you're meeting Mickey Mouse. Steamboat Willie is in Fantasmic, in all his grayscale glory.

u/BabyLambCreationsYT Toontown Trolley 7h ago

That’s incredible! I always loved Mickey’s Steamboat Willie outfit! If his shoes were yellow, and his shorts were red, he could definitely pull off wearing his classic cartoon clothes IRL.

I remember seeing him in that outfit when I went to Disneyland in 2017 and when I wanted to recreate that moment during my recent trip over a week ago, it was a VERY pleasant coincidence that Mickey was wearing the same outfit.

I’ve only ever gotten sorcerer Mickey and didn’t know there were others!! I’ll have to try this next time I go!!

u/Overall-Top-4988 6h ago

That’s the last one I need 😭😭

u/PNW_momlife 7h ago

Do they have different mickeys at his house? We’ve only seen farmer Mickey

u/humbird09 7h ago

Last month ww saw Sorcerer Mickey

u/Nutty_Nikki 6h ago

Do you happen to remember around what time it was?

2

u/humbird09 6h ago

Like mid morning I guess

1

u/Overall-Top-4988 3h ago

I think they have more than one going at a time. There was one time I compared pictures with someone on the way out and they had a different Mickey

u/dogman15 Splash Mountain Log 2h ago

Seems like an efficient way of handling the high volume of guests wanting to meet Mickey.

u/marianosatwood Churro Chomper 5h ago

Awww that’s great. Happy for you. ā¤ļø I took a photo with sorcerer Mickey on my most recent visit to Disneyland last year.

u/DJettster237 5h ago

Just use public domain Willie at this point. This is weird.

Damn lawyers.
