He works in all parks and plays different games and tells different jokes depending on where he is.

the only problem with our was it was usually in my gf pocket book or on the stroller so we didnt always hear it. if they were smaller I could see carrying it on your belt strap.

PalMickey is great. June will be our third trip with our Pal. Surprisingly, each trip our PAL has told us something different and our two children (ages 7 & 2) each got one. What amazed us is that both Mickeys reacted at different times. Also the CMs really react to PAL when they see them. Great purchase!!!

I hear through the grapevine that there will be a PalMinnie this summer for the girls. Let's Hope.

Thanks videogal1. I want to bring extras, just in case. I don't want to have to pay 3 times as much for them.

I got mine replaced free by the counter CM at the camera store on the main street in MGM....

He's about a foot tall, too thick for me to encircle with the fingers on one hand....His feet fit in the shoes for the Build-a Bear creatures...

If you don't already have one and plan to purchase one at the park, you might take one of those pull-open key rings (small size) to replace the teeny weenie piece of satin ribbon attached to his zipper. It makes opening him easier and provides a great alternate attachment point for a lanyard.
I don't think the cruise ships are equipped with the devices that communicate with PM but his games still work and he's a great Pal.....I plan on taking mine...even equipped him with a stick-on return address label that I attached to his battery pack in case he loses his way...

Haven't regretted having him with me...He gets lots of attention from CMs and characters but, for a one-handed owner whose one hand is engaged in operating an electric scooter, the stress of having him calling frequently to have his hand pinched so he can tell a joke or divulge important information is a pain sometimes...stop, pinch, listen, start scooter, stop, pinch, listen, etc., etc......That's just my complaint...Do you think they'll develop a foot-operated Mickey?.....

Great resort choice! Cash and I stayed there in January...Loved eating at Cape May Cafe and going to Fresh at the Dolphin for an early breakfast....

Have a great time and enjoy your Pal....
