Today's Weird Find

A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.

Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Retired Princess Dress From Disneyland Wardrobe?
http://cgi.ebay.com/RETIRED-EXCLUSIVE-S ... 22f8031e49

They say it's a real dress from Disneyland, a backup that was never worn. Either Aurora's or Cindy's
can anyone tell if the is a real house dress or one of those repros Disneyland sold a few years ago to the public for dressup?
for a while they sold repros of costumes of popular charactors.
they had wigs and stuff to match the outfits.
this might even be a public version from the bibbity boutique also. beats me but the tag on it don't look like a inhouse wardrobe tag to me.

Looks to me to be a dress that was sold in a shop. I'm pretty certain it's not one of the princess's real dresses. Also, if I'm reading the size correctly it is a child's size.


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Yup, definitely a retail item, not costuming.

retail - I imagine that by 'retired' they mean that particular design isn't available any longer.
