Melvin, Buff and Max at the Pooh ride

[steamboatpete]

At Disneyland, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh replaced Country Bear Jamboree, and we had noticed that some signs of the old attraction, such as the ropes coming down from the ceiling, were incorporated into the new ride. A CM told us that if we looked hard enough, we could find Melvin, Buff and Max still hanging on the wall somewhere inside the ride. We found them. You have to look straight up as you exit the heffalumps and woozles room, but they are there. You pass right under them.

I'm told there are a couple of good hidden mickeys on the ride, too, but we haven't found them.

Isn't that fun! I was excited too when I first found that out! I miss the bears, but it's fun to go see Melvin, Buff and Max.
There is a fun hidden Mickey in the wood grain in one of the pillars as you enter the ride in your car on the right side. It's hard to see, but ask a CM, they could show you. There is also another Mickey, but I couldn't discribe it. Next time i go I'll take a pic.

Nah. People get to learn the hard way. Tough love!!

Over at Monsters, Inc attraction, there is a sound just before you first see Randall. Sounds like a vacuum. A sucking sound. It's the tribute to Superstar Limo.

Ba-dum-BUM!

Re: Melvin, Buff and Max at the Pooh ride

I've been told by a CM (so I don't know if it's true), that the purple rain outside of Pooh's door is a tribute to Prince (yes the singer). The 3 heads are awesome and they were from the lobby, not the show.

Actually you saw them when you exited the theatre after a show. They were in the (former) Mile Long Bar next door.

And that pic up there is tres creepy!

Re: Melvin, Buff and Max at the Pooh ride

Are they in the same spot in the ride now as they were in the show? Or have they been moved?

[aimster]

Re: Melvin, Buff and Max at the Pooh ride

As stated before, these are the *duplicate* set of heads that were in the adjacent Mile Long Bar restaurant.

I know it has been close to a month since the 5 year anniversary of the closure of Country Bear but i thought this was pretty neat.

WRONG! It has been stated that these so called duplicates are from theater two of the playhouse!
Here is the quote from

"You have to know they are there in order to see them, because it requires you to look 180 degrees behind you and up above the track about 15 feet," advises one ride operator. "They are the exact same heads that came from Theater Two at Disneyland, and they had been stored for the last year in the Haunted Mansion show building beneath the Graveyard scene set where the ghosts are having a tailgate party on the back of a hearse. They've just been sitting there waiting to be installed in the new Pooh ride."
