Disney has announced a few details about the new characters being added to the It’s a Small World attraction. These details talk about how the new characters will be designed to blend in with the rest of the ride. For example, Alice (shown left) will be placed by the already existing Red Rose Tree in the England section of the ride. Makes total sense to me. I really think this is one of the best decisions they could make at this time. It will give a complete new feeling on the ride for die hard fans, yet at the same time it really sounds like they are designing it so that none of the new characters will stand out so much that it changes the focus of the ride. Disney supports this theory by claiming they WILL NOT be adding neither Mickey Mouse or Minnie Mouse into the attraction. This leads me to believe that the “fab 5″ may be skipped for this one which I think is a good thing. Character placement is key with this one and some characters like that would stick out like a sore thumb!
