Donald Duck gets no respect?

[Alchimedes]

I don't know if it is just me but I have noticed a total lack of the Duck.

I have not seen him much at DL and I wonder if the Disney company is trying to squash the mischeviously ill-tempered Donald Duck I love so much! Has anyone else noticed this?

[Bornieo Goes Bananas]

I see him all the time in ToonTown. Not too much in Town Square.

Usually I go to the RRCS instead of visiting the rest of Toontown (Ok Mickey's House too.)Even in movies and other T.V Shows.

isn't Donald in DCA quite a bit?

I dunno considering he's the main character of Micky's Philharmagic or whatever I doubt Disney is going to get rid of him (he's the only member of the fab five that can get into any real adventure, well I guess there's goofy but he's more dopy clumsy kinda trouble, Donald is more deliberate and can still cause trouble more then the others can)

[Disco Duck]

AMEN to that....Donald is always cut from things...i noticed a lot when Disney puts the fab 5 on t-shirts and other merch. One of the fab 5 is always missing...usually donald...somtimes goofy or pluto...but someone is always missing...

Notice that Donald doesnt have much solo merch? I hate that...Donald is the best character....

I know that Donald stuff is hard to find beacause a few yrs ago, I went to buy something with donald on it for my friends son who loves donald and is a big donald fan and also my friend Ken and I had a very hard time finding anything with donald on it. Out of all the hats they have at DL I found two different base ball hats with donald on them. But I have never seen any of the small plush of donald. I have seen most of all the other characters but what is with them not having donald?
But then I have one of the character jackets and it has donald on it but not minnie. Which I found weird because minnie wasn't on any of the character jackets at the time I bought mine.

I Know

Yeah, I have the same problem. Donald Duck has always been my favorite character. I dare you to find Christmas Donald merchandise. It doesn't exist. The main reason (I think) is the new "Grumpy" fad.

[swagdaddy]

I don't really think any of the "Fab Five" are getting their due in the last 5 years or so.

Let's face it, donald is a loser. No one wants to be seen with him. Besides, Goofy is better.

[Disco Duck]

actually i do have donald on christmas merch...my bro got me the cast exclusive christmas pin that has donald...it's nice...

Donald Is King!

This has been a bitter point for me. We see a ton of merchandise for Winnie the Pooh and Tigger. I am almost to the point of hating these characters. They are okay, I guess. But there is a lot more quality entertainment value in Donald than Pooh (see the TV series, Piglet's BIG Movie and the other lame attempts at entertainment).

Then there's Grumpy...

He gets more merchandise when he is (pretty much) limited to one movie. Donald has a lot more depth to his character. It's not just his temper, it's his mischevious side. I laugh on every one of his cartoons. I can't say the same about ANY other Disney character...Mickey and Goofy included.

There are also more cartoon shorts with Donald Duck then there are with Mickey Mouse.

[Witches of Morva]

ORWEN: Now, we Cauldron girls are ALWAYS coming across merchandise on Donald Duck. Both Christmas and non Christmas. Maybe a duckling just has to know where to look.

ORDDU: That's what I'd say. After all, you're a lot more likely to find merchandise on Donald than, say, any merchandise on OUR favorite movie--THE BLACK CAULDRON. So, it's hard for us to sympathize in regard to Donald--when there are so many MORE characters out there that you REALLY don't see anything on.

ORWEN: (sniff) I'd LOVE to have something from THE FOX & THE HOUND or from THE GREAT MOUSE DETECTIVE or from SONG OF THE SOUTH or HOME ON THE RANGE or BROTHER BEAR!!!

I agree, I am so fed up with these characters when donald is always so much better and a lot more entertaining to watch. Watching him lose his temper is the best!

[Gemini Cricket]

Donald Duck rules. Yes, he gets no respect. No merchandise, not many appearances (except I have seen him in ToonTown...) and his character has become sort of a lame wuss in Duck Tales, Quack Pack and in the horrible House of Mouse. He needs to be edgier like he was before, easy to anger, impish, more of a rascal, the kind of duck who could watch someone fall down the stairs and then laugh at them for it.

More Donald merchandise, please!

Ouch!!!
