November Theme Revealed

[pixiewytch]

Briar Rose, I couldn't agree with you more. Tron was bad enough for me and now another space month? Like the others said, I won't mind taking a break from spending credits but a bit more well rounded Disney themes would excite me more. Of course I'm a girl so I would love to be inundated with the fairytale castle princessy stuff but I understand that then the guys would be slighted. If you really think about it though, two months of masculine themes (tron and space) and if you count Halloween month as feminine (which I wouldn't just because a few of the girl items outweigh guy items) that is still an uneven number. I'm all about fairytales or other Disney classic movies. Then again, I know that this whole thing is centered around Disney making money and unless they are re releasing an old film or trying to capitalize on an attraction it is unlikely. A little mermaid theme would have been nice though?

Ditto what Bob and Cap said . We are all 3 still bitter over not having the pink superhero costume

That's exactly it! lol.. I wanted to be a Pink Bubblegum Man for Halloween.. I think that it would be hilarious (but stupid) if they made boy or girl only furniture or rooms lol..
Boy: Aww.. I wanted an Enchanted Rose, but their girl only!
Girl: Stop complaining you got the boy-only trash can for your room.. we're perfectly even
Boy: I wanted the Beauty and the Beast Ballroom Room!
Girl: Don't worry, you have the boy-only room from the movie know one liked or went to see

LOL that's how it feels now lol
But getting back on topic, I just read some of the events and the falling chairs event says that you have to sit on falling Space Shuttles.. maybe a new chair?

I was hoping for a credit month, where we could catch up on credits. All quests would be credit prizes. I know I certainly need some more credits after this month!

I LOVE the toy story idea! Especially the lego building blocks! Its adorable!

While I can certainly see where some of you are coming from, on not being overly thrilled with the coming theme. I was not expecting space month, but had not really given it much thought. I think some more Disney related themes would be nice, true. I think as always, we have to give them the benefit of the doubt. Tron wasn’t space and wasn’t really meant to be. While this follows close I can think of some things I would guess they might do.

- Release other space suit magic by quests
(look for green with 280 K on fireworks requirement)
- Re-release the space room
- Change the arcade Prizes back to what they were or something new.
- Could be a new arcade game
- More Tomorrowland 8/9 pins?
- Re-release of some of the rocket couches
- Could some items some disappear?
- Possible sale of space suit?
- Another opportunity to sell Tron teleporters?
- Could be more Tomorrowland?
- Space Mountain ride parts?

These are just some thought and ideas, who knows? It is difficult to say what VMK will do but as it is around longer I would expect some repeats with some new stuff Mixed in. While the theme can be a nice touch we really come for the games and the company and to see what new things they have for us.

What!? Extra Girls Only costumes aren't enough? Girls get three dresses, Princess Tiara, and now Pink Superhero. Boys get a Crown. Wassup wit dat, yo? Where are the Boys Only Prince Ball Attire or Knight Armor? Or Dracula or ??? Why's Halloween weighed towards Girls playing Dress Up?

And yes, I know in the past Boys have Blue Baseball and White Wildcat Sweatsuit. I'm not arguing the the quality of items. Just the quanity. Like them or not, but when those Boys Only items came out the girls were released Only items (Cheerleader and Red Dress). So Girls are even on that score... And then got access to the Red Baseball (never did see a Omnigender version of the Cheerleader...). And you're still ahead this month. (Sorry, I'm a little bitter... )

LOL! Great post, Goofy_Bob. I wasn't exactly refering to the costumes in general, but moreso the entire package. I was absent from VMK for about two and a half months, and I must say, missing out on Tron wasn't a huge disappointment to me, haha. I wasn't crazy about the past Pirates theme, either. And now the Space theme is lurking around the corner? It just feels like VMK is being injected with an overdose of masculinity right now, 'tis all. I do understand and agree with, you, though... knights armor and some outfit parts to match the crown would be nice! If VMK is going to give girls more color options or outfits, they might as well do the same for the boys!

I agree! It would be totally awesome! I'd so LOVE to see a Beast Costume (and I don't mean with a "monster mask") - The Blue Suit that he wears when when he and Belle dance to in the Ballroom to Beauty and the Beast... You girls get to dress up in her Yellow Ball Gown... Where's ours?

I feel that! When I said VMK needed a tad bit more femininity in its theme, I didn't mean for there to be new items that are only exclusive to girls. I'd love to see a Beast outfit! So long as it fits the bill!

Who knows, maybe VMK will create some unexpected things for both girls AND boys to enjoy when Disney releases "Rapunzel Unbraided." We can only wish

 

[milkabum]

Gosh. Can't we have some funkylicious month, LIKE CANADIAN MONTH!
Or Europeans. Or cultures in general. From what I've seen on the DIS and VMK, people need to learn to respect different cultures. I'd glove a Disney Classics month. Lady and the Tramp and Cinderella are on the top of my favourite list, no question.

 

[cj_clement]

Space month was so boring .. Halloween isnt so great either
i want steamboat willie series .. Black and white !!

... Of course I'm a girl so I would love to be inundated with the fairytale castle princessy stuff but I understand that then the guys would be slighted. ...

I wouldn't be slighted if they were even in what they offerred. I like Disney Magic. I am a full grown adult man, but I also like fairytale stuff. I love castles and dragons and unicorns and sorcery and witches and charmed roses and round tables and chivilary and swords in stones and elves and Three Wishes and fairies and Love's First Kiss, stone circles and Wuv, Twue Wuv (Princess Bride anyone? ) and giants and talking lions and Happily Ever After. I'm down with all that. But for every Princess there has to be a Knight in Shining Armor or Prince Charming to wisk her off her feet! VMK needs to remember that.

Ditto what Bob and Cap said . We are all 3 still bitter over not having the pink superhero costume

Yeah and stuff!

...I wanted to be a Pink Bubblegum Man for Halloween.. I think that it would be hilarious

Girl: Don't worry, you have the boy-only room from the movie know one liked or went to see...

I went to see it. I love Tron!

Space Shuttles.. maybe a new chair?

Yeah "new" - recycled rocket couches or sauces chairs.

LOL! Great post, Goofy_Bob.

Thanks!

...Tron ...Pirates theme ...now the Space

I love Tron. I love what VMK did with Tron. I have nothing bad to say about that... But I will concede that it's not for the Younger Audience to which VMK is supposedly targeted. I will also agree it's sci-fi nature is not feminine. I started in April. I didn't understand or remember the theme of that month. May I think was High School Musical and Baseball, if memory serves... I thought those were ok, though I'm not into HSM (but I get the marketting ties!). I totally loved the way they did the Red Baseball Costume Quests over Memorial Day weekend (though the Quests were very difficult since I hadn't seen but one of the movies and didn't know about disboards back then to get them). Pirates of the Caribbean month was a total disaster all 'round. I've ranted enough about that, so I'll leave it there. Water Park Month? Eh.

So I do agree with you... Some more Disney Magic is needed... Let's see some of the Classics! Heck, they had a Herbie and HSM promotion, but no Little Mermaid promo? Wassup with that?

I feel that! When I said VMK needed a tad bit more femininity in its theme, I didn't mean for there to be new items that are only exclusive to girls. I'd love to see a Beast outfit! So long as it fits the bill!

I'm glad your feelin' my vibe! Glad you're picking up what I'm puttin' down! Smellin' what I'm cookin' and all that jazz...

 

[PirateBell]

Well I am so totally with the rest of you...I really am so bummed that next months theme is again Space! Hey I have a husband and two sons who are totally into space stuff..and thats ok Can't tell you how many space movies I see not once but a million..lol ...BUT where is our Disney?

I was under the impression that next month would be a classic Disney since we all heard about there being a Classic Disney room? Cap I am with you on a Cinderella room or her carriage...Wow how awesome would that be!!! And I am a Big fan of Beauty and the Best! (my two favorites are Cinderella and Beauty and the Best) Wouldn't that be so cool to give Goofy his Best costume! We already have Bells dress...and it would so sweet to see a BLUE BEST costume! I would just love to see more Disney theme stuff...costumes ... furniture...magic...Please if vmk is listening to us.!!

We keep hearing about all the new costumes and so far we haven't seen any.
Yes I have to admitt I like this month...as I only joined back in May so I didn't have alot of the costumes. But do now.... And love the new hats so far... so Thank You VMK! But we sure do hope we have some more NEW costumes coming out! So plz bring out the Pirate costumes and Disney Stuff...plz
So in the mean time guess we all will just have to wait and see if they will surprise us with some really cool stuff that Yavn keeps talking about!

 

[jasonpwns]

Yavn mentioned rockets will come back just cant say when maybe rockets will be back

I agree 100%. I was surprised to see VMK doesn't have a Prince outfit or a Knight.


I think Snow White would be great for both genders. Of course you all might not like being a dwarf Really any of the princesses would be great for both genders as well as having more Mickey and Minnie stuff besides the Mickey ears.

Well now, Space as a theme, hmmm - what a concept? I love it - I do, I do. Thank you kindly VMK. Since I am an amateur Astronomer and I have been into Star Trek since Sep66 (when it started) and Star Wars (which it what is at DLR - Star Tours, of course), Space is an ideal thing to have as a theme for November. What better way to get ready for Christmas than to be spaced-out the month before and then come down back to the wonderfulness of Christmas on VMK in December?! Tron was awesome and I got lots of Tron Stuff (check out my Tron Room). So, in November I shall get lots of whatever Space stuff they have and be feeling out of this world and enjoying every minute of it. Thank You Very Much. Then all of us can more than enjoy and get all the Christmas stuff that VMK has. Up, Up and Away to all the Space Stuff in November. Happy Happy Joy Joy.......

 

[NotAZoo]

On my space wishlist here are some other items not mentioned:

Rooms:
- Mission: Space Staging Room
- Mission to Mars Room

Clothes:
- Newly colored Space Suits
- Mission control headsets

Furniture:
- Obvious re-release of rocket couches
- Astro Orbiter Couches
- Mission to Mars Rugs (where view is of Earth as you depart like at middle of old ride)
- Space Rugs (just stars)
- Shooting Star or Planet Posters

Pins:
- New Space Suit Quests (Pink, Green, Yellow)
- Space Mountain Series (all of space mountains from Parks)

Ride Pieces:
- Space Mountain tracks with rockets as ride pieces
- Space Mountain track loops

Lots of possibilities with Space Month, but somewhat limited on Disney Themed stuff based on parks.

 

[BestLittleLauren]

VMK SO needs a Toontown and Toontown related items, IMHO. Are you listening, game developers?

They have fire-windows you can get from toontown

OMG!! That is such a great idea! Im totally up for that!

 

[Spongeblair]

[Dashzap]

I will also agree it's sci-fi nature is not feminine.

You are kidding, right?
