Hidden Mickey Hunt What is a Hidden Mickey? A Hidden Mickey is a sihouette or head and ears of Mickey Mouse. It is usually one large circle and two smaller circles. These Hidden Mickey's are placed in rides, attractions, hotels, and all around the Walt Disney World Resort by the Disney Imagineers. It is a lot of fun to search out for the Hidden Mickey's around Disney World. Can you find them? Magic Kingdom® Park • The bridle on the Trolley Car horses on Main Street have a couple of Hidden Mickey's. • At the end of Main Street by Cinderella's Castle is a landscaped area where they have a statue of Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse. Around the base of the statue, there are flowers encircled by a rail. The shadow of the detail in the rail forms a hidden Mickey. You can see this hidden Mickey in the morning before noon. • At this same statue, there is a Mickey ring on Walt's hand. Epcot® • When coming from the World Showcase lagoon, walking towards Spaceship Earth, you'll see two huge trees in front of Spaceship Earth. This is an upside-down hidden Mickey where the trees make Mickey's ears and Spaceship Earth is Mickey's head. • In front of Spaceship Earth, there is a mural. On that mural is a rocket with a four digit number running down the side. Look for the number 3. It is black while the other three digits are red. If you tilt your head to the right, and look at the Hidden Mickey shape that is created on the inside of the three. • At Test Track there's a giant billboard out front with pictures of the globe. Look for Africa and then the a newly formed island chain. You'll see a Hidden Mickey in the island chain. • It is the "Lab Test Car" at Test Track, station 2A. There are 4 poles extend out under the front end of the car, but there are also two shafts or pipes on each side of the car, one under the other. The top one on each side has the identical Hidden Mickey as the front end ones. The lower one on each side has two smaller shafts attached to it, which also form a Hidden Mickey (though not as well-proportioned as the others.) So this one car has EIGHT hidden Mickey's -- 4 in the front, and 2 on each side. • There is a hidden Mickey icon in the reflecting pool just outside the Imagination Institute. If you stand with "Honey, I Shrunk the Audience" and Journey into Imagination to your left look into the pool to your left. About 5 ft out and close to the bank about 2 to 3 ft away there on a rock are those famous three circles. • In Mexico, near the end of the boat ride there are three arches on the left. The sales people (one female and one male) run alternately from arch to arch trying to sell something to you. Between the second and third arch, there are three bowls sitting between the boat and the arch. As you approach, they look like three distinct bowls. If you keep you eyes on the bowls and turn your head as the boat goes passed, you will find a Hidden Mickey over you left shoulder. Disney's Hollywood Studios • As you enter the lobby from the queue at Tower Of Terror, there are two doors opened that you go through to get into the lobby. Both doors have many square windows in them. On the left door (the one closest to the stand-by line), second row of windows from the top, and the window farthest right, there is a very, very tiny Mickey head "scraped" from the green stuff on the window. The Mickey is in the center of the window, not on the side. • At the Sunset Theatre, where Mickey Mouse takes pictures with guests, the doors right behind him have handles that when closed create a very obvious Mickey. Disney's Animal Kingdom® Theme Park • There is a hidden Mickey on the main path around the park by one the restrooms. It is located right outside of the women's restroom that is past the Pizzafari. There is a frog statue with a number of circles and curves carved into it. One is clearly a Mickey. • When you go on the Discovery Riverboats in the Safari Village, Discovery Island. On the 2nd bridge that you go through. On the right-handed side (the bridge going to Camp Minnie-Mickey) is a Mickey head with fancy borders around imprinted on a big log. • On the bridge to Camp Minnie Mickey there are a bunch of totem poles, if you look at the pole fartest to your left there is a sculpture of a shark on it with 2 Mickey heads on the shark pretty easy to see and no other similar shapes on any of the other totem poles. These are just a few of the Hidden Mickeys at the Walt Disney World® Resort so keep your eyes open and always watch for little Mickey's throughout the Resorts and Theme Parks!.
