WOW! Can we see what was inside? Also I was told you get mickey footprints leading to the room and tinkerbell somewhere on the wall. Is this true?

I will try to remember - but I am sure something will be missed. Each box is filled with quality shredding packing. I know not a big thing - but again goes into the quality of the total decoration.
The footprints you mention must be the large Mickey Confetti that was around the room. You can see a green one on top of the pluto box.
The shadow - I looked for it - I can only think that it is the glowing tink ontop of the banner.
Mickey: Inside the box was official Mickey or Minnie ears with my DD name.
He also had the big plush, lanyard, picture and autograph book and big pen outside his box.
Minnie: A birthday cake made completely of chocholate. It was just ok tasting.
Pluto: 4 large cookies. Two paws an two bones. (just ok tasting) and 2 bottels of water.
Goofy: Temp Tattoos, deck playing cards, Lighted necklace, and a card with a phone number to call so Goofy can sing Happy Birthday.
Donald: Large Disney mug, noice makers, personal water mister, water and a surprise which I won't mention but thought it was an awesome touch. Not worth anything - but cute none the less.

I wish there was a Princess themed birthday surprise for my DD. She is turning 5 on our trip and this would just blow her away! The FAB 5 is great, but she is total Princess NUT and I'd rather spend the $$$ on Princess themed gifts.![]()

The contents of the presents for Goofy, Donald and Pluto have changed since you received the package. They now contain the following:
Goofy: 1 pound bag of Goofy Taffy, Dated Photo Album
Donald: Navy Cinch Sak with Donald on the front, Donald beach towel, Donald's Beak (whistle shaped like a beak on a lanyard), bag of Donald's caramel corn
Pluto: Disney Pets Dog Dish, Disney Pets Placemat, 5 Rice Krispee Treats shaped like dog bones, Human Collar (Pin trader starter set with lanyard and four trading pins)
SO how often do you anticipate the contents to change? Is this the first change since the package was introduced? I am just wondering if that is what will be in the boxes in say June?
Thanks OP for the pictures and fantastic description! Love it! I'm still trying to decide between the larger and smaller package.

Ok - here we go with the pics - thank for letting me know how to use photobucket!

Dwight - she absolutley loved it. We put the whole "surprise" on video and she just loves to watch it over and over again.
Sorry - no more pics that I would care to post.
but curious reading Your Post.Sorry - can't post the video.
If you are not going to take the boxes home there really isn't a lot to pack. We always bring an small extra piece of luggage to Disney and it all fit. Now, if you want to take home the boxes (which we did because they were so nice). The bottom breaks down and folds fine. The top does not. The "lip" of the top does not break down or fold. Those were a bit tricky - but again we fit in the extra luggage.
Hello all! We leave for WDW in less than a week and my daughter will be turning 9 next Sunday and I ordered this for her birthday. Can't wait to see the look on her face. I'll update everyone with pics when we get back!! I think it will be totally worth the price considering this is also our first trip!!

I ordered mickey's grand welcome for my family july 28th. it is my ds 4, dd2, dniece 17, dsister 27, and dmom ? and myself. It is a little embaressing now but I did some add ons to make sure everyone got stuff along with the large package for the in room celebration I added 2 32" Minnies, another 32"mickey, a 22" Minnie, 5 more personalized mickey blankets, additional mickey hand glove things, 6 starter pin sets, personalized tote bag, and autograph books. I did this over a few months so everyonce and a while I would call and add stuff to my order since I couldn't do it all at once. The CM's were great and so helpful in making sure that it turns out the way I want. I am hoping with all that is in the package I can get away a little cheaper in the parks!!! let's hope. lol. my package came out to a few hundred dollars. But worth it for me, it's been a tough year for all of us. Can't wait to see my kids faces when they see the room!! lol. when we get back I will post pics of the room for everyone![]()
