I have to say most of the time I’m all for progress, updating items and moving forward, but at the Disney Store, Disney Village I have an issue.
After yesterdays post I realised that something wasn’t quite right and here is the issue. When the stone work was installed behind the original sign the concept wasn’t in your face Disney characters, but a more subtle Mount Rushmore effect. Look at Donald’s pupils, they are far too dilated. Sometimes the original was the best version, why fix it if it isn’t broke?
I found this photo below by Photosmagiques.com showing it’s original state as it was being painted in 2007.
Thanks to Rich Oswald and Photosmagiques for the photographs.Devo dizer que sou completamente a favor do progresso e da actualização e melhoria de tudo mas na Disney Store, no Disney Village, tenho um problema.
Após o post de ontem apercebi-me que algo não estava bem e aqui está o problema. Quando o sinal em pedra foi colocado, as personagens Disney não eram tão evidentes. Pareciam mais o Monte Rushmore. Olha para as pupilas do Donald, estão exageradamente dilatadas. Por vezes o original é o melhor, porquê alterar se nem sequer estava estragado?
Encontrei esta foto em baixo no Photosmagiques.com, que mostrava o sinal original a ser pintado em 2007.
Obrigado ao Rich Oswald e ao Photosmagiques pelas fotografias.

I really don’t like this sign! Donald looks all wrong 🙁 I had no idea it wasn’t painted before! I must have not noticed it before when it was subtle – I wish they had left it the way it was – it looks sooo much better.
The original was much better, and more authentic (the painted version doesn’t remind me of Mt Rushmore)
