Originally Posted By bobbelee9 I'm still annoyed that in the SpectroMagic parade Flora, Fauna and Merriweather each had their own float and my gal Maleficent was non-existant. And now no villians in the daytime parade. I protest. If there are no villians, then why do you need the good guys?

Anybody notice that the villian shop in the studios is mostly candy. It's mind boggling that the only villian store in WDW has such a small amount of Villian merchandise. Mine are 11 and 13 and they have preety much outgrown wearing princess Ts, but throw out a good villian shirt and they are all over it. Also, I tweens and teens probably have more cash to spend. I say bring back the villians to the parade and add them more to other places in the parks too. How about a meet and greet with them sometime other than just during Mickey's not so scary party.

CDD did you see the big statue of her in the Villians Store window? Nice. I managed to get a Maleficent Tee and a Chernabog Tee, but I feel bad for guys who like villians, there was nothing in the store for them. The villians you love to hate.
Originally Posted By CarolinaDisneyDad Yes, that store looks great from the outside. Its the inside that disappoints. Maleficent is my oldests favorite and the Queen of Hearts is my youngest's. We have both costumes and they have used them the last 2 years. Both characters were excellent year before last at meet and greets.

Originally Posted By CarolinaDisneyDad That,s because when a male tries to be regal and bad he ends up looking like prince john. Even jafar comes across a little pompas whereas the queens are just plain scary. Gotta love em. On the other hand capt hook is one of my favorites and everybody loves Mr. Smee.
