Epcot Vice President Jim MacPhee said Thursday that the time has come to remove the Mickey Mouse arm, glove and wand that have served as a colorful, lighted Epcot sign -- and as a lightning rod for criticism from many longtime Epcot fans.
As I've said before, I don't have a preference either way, and unlike many Disney fans, I don't find the wand to be "offensive" at all. On the other hand, I LIKE the Sorcerer Hat at Disney/MGM Studios. It give a well-defined focus and "icon" to the park that has none before it. So I certainly disagree with many Disney blogs and purists out there regarding The Hat. I hope they don't remove it.
Now, if only they'll do something about not celebrating Epcot's 25th. I find that to be more offensive than the wand.
Zz.
