    New Ears ( not the freebies)

    We were at the parks this past weekend and I got a pair of the new Ears (not the YOAMD cloud ones)...I don't have them here with me so I will post a pic as soon as I get back home...(maybe someone already has)

    They are very cool, dark blue w/ silver ears that have lights on them. You flip the battery switch on the back to turn on/off and the ears "sparkle" The front has a patch w/ Mickey and the castle and it says something about dreams...

    One cool feature is that these actually have an elastic strap on the ADULT ears, which I think is great because I'm always having to remember to bring pins to keep my ears on my head.

    These were so new that the Mad Hatter CM had to call to ask if it was ok to embroider these (maybe he thought there were wires that might get stiched??) and another CM stopped me on Main Street to ask me where I got the cool ears. Also, I only saw a few others wearing them.

    Anyhoo, I will post a pic when I get back home w/ a full trip report.

    They sound great! Especially the chin strap! I don't see why they don't put them on all ears, and if you don't like it, you can cut if off!!

      cool...

      I don't like the elastic strap on the adult ears. The NBC ears I bought have that. I'm cuting it off before I wear them...LOL...I tried the strap, but it felt odd...

        Yeah, I constantly wonder just how big they think the average human adult head is!

        Even with my boofy hair it is an ill-fit.

            I agree that the strap is a little wacky...but I use it on the rides and then flip it to the back while I stroll around. Beats fiddling w/ clips! (I have a somewhat giant noggin)

                I predict another HOT eBay item!

                And so many folks here weren't too impressed with them. I thought they looked cute.

                Enjoy!

                      You're right... I forgot to add the picture in the update. :shy: Sorry about that.

                      I added the photo to my thread, and here as well:

                        I love the light up factor, but not too keen on the logo - Mickey looks a little weird.

                            Ah. so that's why we couldn't find any of them last night. It's too bad, my friend's boyfriend really wanted a pair.

                              I agree. But the lights!! Way cool! I'd like to see them in action!

                                Disney actually has listened. What we have been told, is that the intent is wherever possible- all new ears will be embroiderable, and will have chin straps.

                                The new light up ears are able to be embroidered on, thanx to the fact that the wires et al are completely contained within each ear, and thus there is nothing significantly different from the felt cap than other ears.

                                  But you have to admit, at least this time he's not holding a baton upside-down...



                                  ...speaking as a pure bando here, that's the one and only thing that bugs me about the last Mick. This one he's just gesturing towards a Disney Castle.

                                  I like the dark blue on these Dream ears much, much more than the cloud print on the Dream ears that are given away. I'll say this a million times for the next 15 months, but I'm not big on the whole cloud thing.

                                    I wanted some as well. Looked ALL over last week, to no avail. Weird thing was, I still saw people wearing them. They must have JUST sold out that weekend. Hopefully they'll get some more in before next Tues.
