Hello Disney Modelers,
>
Happy Halloween to all and for those of you who have followed my Disney
Models saga, here are the latest scary details. When I first began
to tackle this project, I was told that Disney is very difficult and it
is a long process to obtain a license. However, no one told me how
emotional it would be and that has truly been the worst part. It has
been like running through an obstacle course with your eyes closed. You
feel great after you clear one obstacle but start worrying and thinking
about what's next, which is always harder than the last and you keep
hoping the end of the course is near! As I left off last time Disney
Consumer Products was suppose to get back with us in July with next
steps and park approval for the models. However, August, September and
most of October came and went and no contact, we called them no return
calls. We were thinking, it's over they have changed their minds, the
parks said no. It was totally depressing and I was convinced that
"wishing upon a star",is a bunch of crap, doesn't work no matter who you
are and your dreams never come true! Then last week, we heard from
Disney! They confirmed they were still interested and the Disney Models
were a go, But? Another hurdle was thrown at us and that was we need
to contact and start working with another Disney office. It turns out
this is a good thing, we are now working with the Disney Consumer
Products office in Munich, Germany! This is a very good thing for us as
this is the final step since the manufacturer is in Germany and part of
the European Union the deal and contracts will be finsihed here. So this
is good news as the Germans are efficent and straight forward. We
should have a done deal soon and finnaly have a happy ending to this
long story. Again, thanks for your support and keep your fingers
crossed and don't forget to Wish Upon A Star as dreams do come true.....
