I hope if they take it away that I can claim it. You can order a small replica for something like $35.
Originally Posted By pennyring I believe the 10 year thing is basically to cover themselves if they feel like changing the esplanade area. Or if your brick gets damaged, they won't be liable after ten years, etc. When you order it, they give you options as to which logo you want at the top. Yes, you can choose the gold medallion 50th logo. We did, and it looks great!
Originally Posted By OceanSpace If you read the fine print on the brochure, there is a long list of disclaimers about things Disney will and will not do. It says such things as the brick is property of Disneyland and the brick's sponsor has no right to the property, etc. And I believe there was also a big section about not being able to keep your brick if broken or removed. They also make it clear that they will not do any upkeep on the brick, if someone puts gum on it, they won't clean it up. You'd have to read the list before making a final decision. All of that said, I ordered my 50th brick last year and I love it, no regrets. It's fun to show to people and I recommend buying the wooden replica if you get the 50th medallion in it. The replica is quite the little conversation piece when people notice it in my house.

I e-mailed the seller and he said that he'd never heard of the program I was talking about, yet his pictures were the exact ones from the brochures and the ones on display at the park kiosk. Oh, and his description was identical to what it said in the brochure, word for word.
