Pirates set to invade DTD's WOD

Disnerd · 04-04-2006, 09:54 AM

During the next couple of nights room 5 at the World of Disney will transform into a pirate ship complete with skeleton pirates, cannons and a crows nest! Room 5 is the room at the end of the store next to Anne Geddes. Last month Dumbo quitely flew out of the room to make way for this new over lay. New pirate merchandise is already appearing in the room. The center pillar in the room will become the mast of the ship with a crows nest at the top and a tattered sail. A treasure chest will greet guest at the front doors filled to the brim with pirate goodies and booty. Other merchandise will be displayed in barrels and on top of crates aboard the ship. In one corner of the room will be a skeleton steering the ship and in another a pirate skeleton on top of a cannon with a flint lock pistol. There will be pirate skull and crossbones projected around the room. I wish I could post concept pictures of the over lay, but they would make me walk the plank! All of this will be installed over the next two to three nights. This new ship should set sail on the morning of April 6th. Dumbo's where abouts at this time are unknown. I think he maybe locked away in that big warehouse with Indy's Arc of the Covenant. I'll get pictures as soon as I can.

Great "inside" info!

We look forward to seeing it real soon.

Thanks!

Lets hope this looks better than WoD's PoTC room in WDW...

(enough acronyms?)

Ahoy all,

This sounds excellent. I look forward to checking it out on Friday night before Pin Trading Night at the hotel.

Let the pillaging commence!

BTW has anyone ever seen anyone buy anything at the Anne Geddes store? I was there when Anne Geddes was in the store and nothing was being sold. The rent must be more than a little high for that premimum corner spot, how long can they last there?

Ahh! Right in time for my trip! I'll be there Friday, can't wait for Pirate merchandise!!!!!!!!!

*NeverNeverland* · 04-04-2006, 01:11 PM

That sounds really aesome!
Do you know how long it'll be up?

Hyperbole · 04-04-2006, 01:49 PM

Was there some sort of Dumbo display in this space previously?

I must have missed it. Any pics of what it was?

Here are photos of what was done during the first night of the over lay. Sorry the quality is kind of sub standard, they were taken with a camera in my PDA.

Tonight they will finish the lighting.
