Suppose you wanted to decorate a room or create a ride to function as a "Disney Animated Canon Museum." Just how far would you get with the furnishings that have been released in MyVMK? Let's find out, starting with the first spate of movies that comprise the original Golden Age!
(Note: I'm only considering rooms and furni--including posters--in this analysis. Costumes and pins are another story.)
Part 1: The Golden Age
Walt Disney took the world by storm when he released the first full-color animated feature film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, in 1937. Suddenly the sky was the limit when it came to what animation could accomplish as an art form. All five of the films that constitute the original Golden Age of Disney are well-known and beloved today. But how have they fared in our wonderful world of MyVMK?
1937: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs--We have several items evoking this movie, though they all seem to be related to the Evil Queen rather than Snow White or the Dwarfs--the Heartless Hamper (in a variety of colors), Evil Queen's Mirror, Evil Queen's Candle Holder, and Poison Apple Pedestal.
1940: Pinocchio--The only item I can think of is the Pinocchio Easter egg. Are there any others?
1940: Fantasia--This is another movie that has a related Easter egg (Sorcerer Mickey) but seems to have no other direct representation as furniture...unless I have missed something.
EDIT: CurleeQ reminded me about the Chernabog carpet! I can't imagine why I forgot, since I have several of them myself. Thanks!
UPDATE: February 2017 is Fantasia Month, with new items galore! Wonderful!
1941: Dumbo--Some of the Midway themed items might work, but they're not specifically Dumbo-related.
UPDATE: The Dumbo egg has emerged after all for Easter 2016!
1942: Bambi--This movie has not been honored with any furni at all as far as I am aware.
UPDATE: As of Easter 2016, we have a Thumper Pet Base to cuten up our rooms!
Conclusion: Everyone loves fairy tales and villains, but Disney's earliest animated films are sadly underrepresented in MyVMK.
Up next: the Package Era!
