Recently, I was reminded that Hidden Mickey images, even some really good ones, may disappear. When areas are refurbished, Disney can decide to remove perfectly decent Hidden Mickeys. I was searching out Hidden Mickeys at Disney’s Hollywood Studios and discovered that several were gone.
When the Block Party Bash revved up last year, Hidden Mickeys were in the confetti decorations around the “Block Party Bash” post on the Tip Board.
A Cast Member told me that these Hidden Mickeys were not “official,” and that the Manager or Imagineer for the area could remove them at any time. The CM’s warning was accurate. I checked the Tip Board recently, and the Hidden Mickeys were gone.
The Studio Backlot Tour was refurbished this winter. The mural backdrop for the Special Effects Water Tank area was repainted, and three decent Hidden Images (two Hidden Mickeys and Clarabelle the Cow) disappeared!
Here is the new one. I couldn’t find any Hidden Mickeys in this new mural. If you can, let me know!
For years, classic Mickeys were in the tile floor along the inside entryway to Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster. I wasn’t fond of these images, since all the circles were the same size, but many guests and Cast Members liked them as Hidden Mickeys.
As you can see, these images were not continued in the new tile floor.
We must stay vigilant about Hidden Mickeys (especially our favorite ones)!
