My parents just returned from the place where all aging Jews go for the winter: Florida. For some reason, even though my mother hates thrill rides and my father has weight and mobility problems, they decided they wanted to visit Disneyworld on this trip, and they just sent me a package of souvenir magnetic clips:

Mickey, deconstructed

As [livejournal.com profile] columbina said, "It looks like what happened to Mickey after one of the cats got to him."



Posed on their own, some of the magnets achieve a strangely sculptural quality:
Mickey's disembodied hand

... or maybe they're just strange. Mickey's pants look a bit like a cartoon alien here.

Ha. Dismembered Mickey!

(The closeups are sort of grainy, but it's not a displeasing graininess. Do you know what ISO it was using? The information on Flickr has "focal plane x resolution" but not the ISO.)

I think Mickey's pants look a little too much like a snout. I can see the alien if I squint but the yellow parts definitely come across as nostrils to me first.

A friend once made me a Photoshopped image of one of my hedgehogs eating Jiminy Cricket. Sadly, I can't seem to find it.

The Suits probably figured that all the representations of significantly larger percentages of the character were no longer meeting demand. See current issue of Newsweek: "New Markets for a Square Centimeter: How To Make Your Second Million With The Distance Between Your Licenced Property's Philtrum and Left Ear (when present)."
