Also, maybe it was just for the announcement, but their movements looked really over the top and way too choreographed to be believable. Hopefully it will be better when they actually have something to react to, instead of pretending to find a stream running across the astro-turf.

As a side note, does anybody else think it's interesing that Tinkerbell would just randomly have such a diverse group of pals. While I'm sure that fairies don't have a concept of race or ethnicity like we silly humans do, but it seems that Tink went out of her way to make sure not to offend anybody with her Circle of 5. Either it was just the best way to work out her cell phone plan, or there is some marketing person behind this trying to sell all the PC toys to the PC children...

I don't have any white children in my class, and I believe there are less than 10 in the entire school (we have a population of over 500 children). This isn't a white world anymore, and toys, characters and culture need to reflect that.

That way - it makes more of a memory to relate and then "meet" that character. Does anyone know where in ToonTown they will hang out? Hey. You know - since they can all hang out in a tree and flit about, if Tarzan doesn't get back into his loincloth and start entertaining the ladies again at a certain treehouse - I know some young winged ladies that could adopt and redecorate all those rooms...
