Disney Channel fans have been buzzing on twitter and facebook recently about the addition of classic Mickey and the gang cartoons showing up in interstitials during regular Disney Channel programming. I love this because when the Disney Channel first started back in 1983, this is the type of wonderful animation I used to watch. Good Morning Mickey! and Donald Duck Presents were my favorites, along with of course Mousercise with Kellyn. All of the vintage Disney animation shorts became beloved friends as I was growing up.
I was thrilled to see t-shirts at Downtown Disney‘s World of Disney this past weekend featuring some of these classic featurettes. Here are some pictures I took, along with videos of the original shorts to enjoy…
Now if Disney can get Humphrey the Bear back on screen and on some tees, I’ll be even happier! I know for a while he was on some merchandise at Wilderness Lodge but I have not seen any in a while – I’m sure my readers will correct me if I’m wrong. π What classic Disney animation would you like to see back on the Disney Channel and in the parks?
OMG! I had not seen these. I saw the Vintage Mickey ones, that had the black and white Mickey cartoons, but these are must haves. My favorite Mickey shorts are Lonesome Ghosts and Hawaiian Holiday. Having gone back and watched them all for my blog, I love ’em even more. Great find!
Thanks! So far it looked like they were just kids sizes, but I admit we did
not look through all the adult t’s so maybe there are adult versions as
well. I guess I’ll have to go back and do more “research”! π
I love the vintage cartoons. I hope they make these available online because I can’t get to the parks until next December!!
I like! And yes, it would be great if Humphrey made a come back!
We love Humphrey the Bear! Fort Wilderness had some Humphrey merchandise too around 2003. We have a plush Humphrey holding a picture frame.
