Are you refering to the Hub and old tomorrowland Shop? Becasue the Tomorrowland on today opened much later than Oct... Maybe Feb or March...

When talking about last year's Halloween, you cannot forget about the maze and epitaph contest, .

I remember waiting behind 650 people in queue to get into the maze. What was I thinking...

For some reason, when I think about when the dresses first came out, the bottom, top and shoes were only 250 and the crown was 500. I think I am wrong, but it seemed that when things started to be 1000 credits, they were very expensive.

Does anybody have this same thought?

yeah, specifically for smaller kids..it takes my youngest 10 days of saving NPC's for one hat...and she can't buy anything in the meantime. She's too young for the games. I help her and her sister but it's hard to keep 3 characters going at once..

 

[PirateBell]

I'm honestly tired right now, I have a school open house tonight.
But anyways, I see everyone has listed them. If you'd like to see some screenshots of Main Street when it was decorated please leave a post.

Hi Everyone
I am new to Dis and been with vmk since June. I am really excited about Halloween as everyone keeps talking about everything and how cool it was. Yes I would very much like to see some pics of Main Street of Halloween or Christmas if anyone has some! Thanks.

I feel your pain. My four year old can't really do games either and doesn't understand the concept of "saving". As soon as he gets credits he spends them on something in a shop. I can only imagine how nuts he will go over all of the costumes and how much I'll be scrambling around to get them for him as well as for myself.

I was so amazingly upset when I reached the final teleporter to the help room.. and came through the enterance. I had to ask for my candy cauldron, and thankfully got it afterwards. I will glady post some pictures for you Hold on let me just upload them!

 

[milkabum]

Here are two links for Main Street in October. For Christmas, all they decorated was the VMK Esplanade with a christmas tree, some lights and snow. The Haunted Mansion lobby was also decorated! I love these pictures! I got as many as I could!

Central Plaza

Haunted Mansion Lobby

Town Square

Castle Forecourt

of the 5 rooms they decorated for Halloween, the Holiday Haunted Mansion was my favorite! I really really hope they bring it back.. also, correct me if i'm wrong, but wasn't the Holiday Mansion up until after Christmas? would make sense as that's how the ride's scheduele works..

 

[milkabum]

Oops >.<

 

[SorcererRocks]

I wasn't around...can someone please let me know exactly what costumes were available, for how long, in what store(s) and how much they were? I know the prices have probably gone up - but I'd like to get some kind of an idea of what I'm in for...and I was really curious as to what was on sale because Yavn said they would be bringing back some favorites. Any help would be great, and whatever you can remember would help, thanks!

I agree with the costume part prices except to confirm that the hats
were 1000 credits. I remember Cowboy, Indian headdress and Mansion top
hat being double the price of the shirts, pants and shoes.

Of course, I'm looking forward to the "neverending Halloween on Main Street"
again this year. For those just joining us since Halloween, we were all
excited to see the Main Street rooms decorated for Halloween. But when
Halloween ended, the decorations were still up. I don't remember how long
it took for VMK to change Main Street back to normal, but I was singing,
"It's beginning to look a lot like Halloween..."

Yes. Some of the pieces were a 1000 credits.

I posted a breakdown of every cotume part and how much it cost a while ago. I'm trying to find that post now.

But, yes. The total for buying all complete costumes last year came up to 24,850 credits.

Yes those flies in town square were nasty. If you recall, the keeping of the Halloween decorations kind of made sense from a business reason perspective. They were at the time creating the the 2nd phase of the hidden mickey quest. So instead of going back to the original rooms with the original hidden mickey quest from before Halloween, they just changed it to the original rooms with the new hidden mickey quest. I bet they had planned on making that change sooner than later, but delays happen.

That would be cool, if we get another Hidden Mickey Quest. They are so much fun.

I thought that halloween decorations were up until they changed them for Christmas

Yes, but they were up until they put up the Christmas things in the esplanade.
We were all so disappointed that nothing else was decorated after all the Halloween stuff. Christmas was rather a let down in that department.

you guys ROCK, thanks!!!
