Great article and pictures!  I didn't know that Mouse Surplus moved...the old location was pretty cramped, so I'm glad things are more spread out.  I live near the OIA, so I'll be heading there soon!  

JIM!
Your Popups are incredibly obnoxious! And they're getting through both Firefox's blocker, AND Google Toolbar's!

Popups are not a reliable business model, please do your audience a favor and remove them from your site. No respectable site has this crap any more, what's wrong with you?

Agreed on the popups.  Nobody is going to go to University of Phoenix because it pops up on your site.  Please lose the pop ups.

I'm just wondering how much of a discount MouseSurplus gives y'all, because sometimes these articles are worse than the plugs on The Apprentice.  Sure, it's fun to look at old memorabilia, but do we have to hear repeatedly about the shop every time?

Pop ups come with the territory, I would rather have pop ups than begginf for cash.
I like the old mouse stuff, however we here on the west coast feel a little left out sometimes.

1) You don't like these articles.............don't read them!!!! Some of us who live far from the store love these articles.
2) Does it really take that much energy to move your mouse and click the little "X" on the popup? Or if you want, just press ALT+F4. How lazy can you be? These popups bring JHM money. Get over it!

Oh my I would love to have one of those Horizons artifacts.  It is one of my favorite lost attractions.  Any idea how much he is charging for them?

I'm one of those people who loves seeing this stuff.  I have never been able to visit their store, but I became aware of it through this site and now go to scope out their auctions.  Even though I haven't bought anything, I really enjoy seeing all of the amazing bits of Disney history that they've salvaged and that some lucky person can own.  Why read the article just to complain?  Skip over the Mouse Surplus stuff if you're not interested - I want more!

As a recovering Disney employee, I've been trying to keep The Mouse's giant, overbranded mitts off my kid for as long as possible. [Actually, the real threat is the Disney Princess Hegemony, but you get my point.] Still, I'm not blind to the appeal of

My points were:
A: I get two popups everytime I open an article.  I'm not clicking on them, so no one is getting any money.  But I have to take the time to raise them up so I can then close them.  Annoying.
2. I like the Horizons and other stuff as much as the next freak.  But not when the article is written as one big ad for the place.

III) I don't get any popups, & I am using Firefox's popup stopper.
c) If the popups are from a website like Kanoodle, he is paid a certain amount for each 1000 views.

That Fort Wilderness Sign is amazing! I also spent many happy weeks in Fort Wilderness after my family would pile into the car and make the trip from Minnesota. Seeing that sign really brings backs some good memories.

<i>While wandering around Mouse Surplus' new warehouse, Jeff Lange comes across an early Epcot map. Which reminds him of the African pavilion that was supposed to open to the public in late 1983, but ultimately got tripped up by budget problems

THANK YOU Jeff.. and Jim, great pics! I'd forgotten about that place and I'm DYING to see the new warehouse.

As you for you whiny-assed little babies crying about a couple pop-up ads... get over it!  Try hosting a web site out of your pocket, and keeping it up to date constantly.  It's hard work, and expensive work.  Get over yourselves and your elite attitude.  Hard frickin' hard is it to close a few windows, for the convenience of FREE articles?   My God I just wanna ***-slap you right up side your heads.

Ha!..   Hard = How...    and again, HOW frickin' hard is it?  Really?  It took you more effort to post a message complaining about it than it probably took to close the pop-ups!  

Ok... I'm done now.  ;)

Jeff, Is that acetate you're holding marked "moon shot"? I believe it's the strip from the "body scan" machine in the space segment. There was an animatronic riding a bike upside down, a rowing machine, some shadows playing basketball, and a flat panel with a body shape on it. I believe that's where this strip comes from. It's a rear projection.

About the pop-ups. People, Jim's gotta get paid or we don't see anymore articles. Everytime a pop-up loads, Jim gets paid. It's not a whole lot trust me. Just let 'em load. You watch commercials on TV don't you? same thing. You even watch them on cable TV which you pay for anyway! Just be cool and click them off when they load. No problems.
