Random: I bought this photo (seems like it was originally used for a book? I can’t recall the name ) from eBay several months ago. It’s just perfect. <3

Look what came in the mail! #disney #pluto #obsessed
do tell
where you get and what is it?

I love when the DPB posts these vintage pics, especially pics that were lost over the years. Golly this is amazing.
Actually, I can’t decide what I like more – the tool belt and hardhat, being tangled in Christmas lights, or the fact that he’s wearing brown overalls. Squeee how I love these kind of outfits.


In case you were slaving away in the sun all this time, here’s a fun fact: Toyko DisneySea has a port-of-call devoted to the Little Mermaid called Mermaid Lagoon, which opened in 2001 and is inspired by the Palace of King Triton and his colorful underwater kingdom.
As it houses a lot of attractions designed for kids in mind, it naturally will have certain famous characters romping around in swim gear. Sure enough, here’s Pluto with a swim tube and snorkeling equipment. Won’t he and the rest of the gang look great in Typhoon Lagoon as well?

Annoys me how lil Pluto stuff is in the states. Seems in Japan he is everywhere. These are Japanese rice seasoning packets.

Got my pluto pajamas from Japan. I need to look it up. Think it’s Fujiyama or something.

I always like to see the characters in country outfits. It just looks natural IMO.
Taken in 2010.

There are only a few things I know about this shitty video still:
1. This is dated 1975, at Magic Kingdom’s Tomorrowland. 1975 was when the entire land was finally complete & prepared for the general public.
2. Judging from the obvious older Disney Channel logo, this was probably shown on the channel as one of those specials about the parks, perhaps from ‘Vault Disney’. In turn, the footage is likely from some sort of media coverage – the “grand opening”, if there was indeed one?
3. The costume itself is part of the original astronaut getup Mickey and Goofy wore at the time:
But I have yet to find ANY photo of Astronaut Pluto. Was him wearing such an outfit a one-time deal then? Or since 1970s photography was an expensive privilege at the time, no photos simply exist?
And yet, this postcard shows Mickey has ONE stripe while Goofy has THREE:
Pluto clearly has two. Hmmmm. Why is that?
4. Considering both mouse and dog has helmets, did they forgot Pluto’s helmet? Did they even care? Looking at both postcards again, perhaps the helmets were customized for the two – note the Goofy hat and Mickey ears extending out the plastic. It was prolly cheaper to parade for the crowd sans the helmet then.
