The flying one is just genius. I love how it looks, how it moves, it's a marvel of costume ingenuity. I absolutely love it to bits and wish I could see it with my own eyes.

I swear you'd have a better chance of finding an actual flying elephant than finding a Dumbo meet and greet character at Disneyland. He's THAT rare.

I think I like the Dumbo's Circus Parade costume the most. Say what you will about the bighead costumes, but I find it really clever that the hat was used for the performers head, making him look shorter (after all, Dumbo IS supposed to be a baby), and that the ears were controlled by the performers arms. I don't know why, but I find that to be really creative and innovative, especially since they only used him in the Circus Parade, so there wouldn't be any complaints about limited interactivity unlike the other bighead costumes, since he wasn't used in meet and greets at all.

@katcrafty 6 жыл бұрын

The 1979 version is absolutely the best. I still remember being a child at Disney world and seeing that version. I thought the costume was designed so well, because I absolutely loved how organically the ears moved, just like human arms; because the ears, as it turns out, were actually arms!

Thank you for including Dumbo's Circus in your list. I grew up watching it on the Disney Channel and was a big fan of all the character costumes on the show. It is definitely one of the best versions of Dumbo. However the best is still the actual Dumbo that flies over the castle. When I first saw him over Sleeping Beauty castle I immediately began to cry as memories of Dumbo's Circus from my childhood began flooding my mind. Pure Disney magic!

Hello again Dan! Wonderful video as always. Since we’re talking about Dumbo, I’ve actually made several puppets of some of the characters ( Timothy Mouse, the crows and my favourite, Mr Stork) and I usually impersonate the voices since i’m a ventriloquist. Mr Stork’s voice (which was provided by the talented and adorable Sterling Holloway) is actually the easiest voice to impersonate 😊

Naturally, my favourite Dumbo is the one you can ride. That's the one I remember from Disneyland (my sister and cousin loved it so much they would cry until they got to ride it). It seems that unlike most of the cartoon characters, Dumbo actually works kind of well as a big-head suit. It probably helps that he doesn't really have arms, so it isn't as weird he can't move them (and the arm-ears actually make quite a bit of sense).

They simply could take collectible statue characters and study them in their 3D shape form, so they can have better result for designing the mascot heads properly. Can you create a video about the "Mad hatter" costume? Thank you. 👍
