What is that, a glow stick? Do you have to shake it, or does it just glow automatically in the dark?

Does that mean it won't be handed out on the 18th? If that's the case then, I am not going.

They will still be handed out on the 18th. The reason they were handed out was for the press to videotape I think. They might hand it out again later this week too maybe.

Re: Who will be there on Mickey's Birthday 11/18th?

Interesting, can someone explain what they do? I guess its more of a collectible thing, though.

Re: Who will be there on Mickey's Birthday 11/18th?

Kinda disappointed that there's no real connection to Mickey's birthday for this item. Are we 100% sure the 11/18 present is just gonna be a glowstick? Let me be clear that I'm NOT doubting Ichigo. I just think it's kinda not really connected, and honestly a little disappointing...but, hey, how much can you really complain about "free?"^^

You can see by the illustration in the bottom left corner that it's the "break and shake" kind. This means it's also one-time only; not sure how collectible that really is. You either have an old, used glowstick or a glowstick in a package... Without the piece of cardboard in the packaging, it would just be a generic glowstick on a string, too. It doesn't seem to be printed with "Candlelight Reflections Finale 2009" or anything. Incidentally, even the well-hyped and impressively designed tree-wand is not dated and doesn't feature the Candlelight Reflections Finale logo on it anywhere. It even comes with a strap, but that's just generic red with painted white snowflakes, no text of any kind. Missed opportunity. Puzzling.

I hope it's not been and won't be used for anything else. That would be a let down.

Funny, I though the gift was going to be some type of tree that lite up? Something that was reusable. It is disappointing if its just a glow stick. I hope its more then the just a glow stick.

The items from TDR that light up seem to be a big hit. I picked up a Christmas Mickey necklace that lights up last year. He is really cute and I get stopped by guest at DLR wanting to know where they can get them. They are sad when I say Tokyo. They were hoping it was at DLR.

Sorry! I didn't notice when I took the picture that the stick was backwards! It actually does say on the stick Harborside Christmas 11/10 - 12/25, 2009 Tokyo DisneySEA.You are right that it is a glowstick that you snap and it is for one time use. I'm kind of glad they went for something more fun instead of the usual pin which can get boring.

They have given something like that that you can us again for the countdown party but that is an expensive pay event so you expect something nice. This is a free give away so I think that it's nice if they give anything at all out.

Oh, well, that makes a big difference for me. That's much better! I do think it's cool that it's useful and connected to the seasonal event. Just, it seems to me like a more appropriate gift for the start of the event or on Christmas Day. It just doesn't seem like a "Mickey's birthday" thing to me at all. But having it printed at least does make it a collectible worth being grateful for as a freebie.

Yeah, I get that, too. Makes sense that Countdown gifts would be nicer. Now that I know it's printed and dated, it's not the quality of it that bothers me, it's the absence of Mickey. Still, the seasonal connection is nice. Thanks for clearing us up about the printing.^^

PS - cute nail polish!^^

Found a pic with the logo:

Thank you! It's done by Yamano Aiko in Ginza. :love:

I get what you are saying about why is the gift released on Mickey's birthday instead of the event start though. Especially since they pretty much released it for th start of the event anyways kind of. TDS is back to being pretty empty now that Halloween is over though so maybe they just want people to go there and promote the event at the same time.

Re: Who will be there on Mickey's Birthday 11/18th?

Do you think they will do something more "Mickey" on his birthday over at Tokyo Disneyland?

**Roger55** · 11-13-2009, 11:08 PM

Re: Who will be there on Mickey's Birthday 11/18th?

If that glow stick is the gift, I might not even be able to transport it home on the plane unless I hide it due to the 3 oz liquid rule. Then again, if the glow stick is the gift, it really isn't worth taking home.

My understanding is that there will be nothing special over at TDL. I plan to spend the entire day at TDS.

**TDLFAN** · 11-14-2009, 01:35 PM

Re: Who will be there on Mickey's Birthday 11/18th?

I almost went to the parks today sunday as it is a lovely day in Tokyo today, but I overslept.

Re: Who will be there on Mickey's Birthday 11/18th?

TDS was really busy this past Sunday morning TDLFAN-probably since it was the first really nice day they had this past week. You probably knew I was there so you kept away.

I would have loved to be there 11/18, but I only have so much time off from work each year.
