Stars: 5 out of 5
Pros: Great colors, great looking ornament
Cons: Does tip forward when hung
The Bottom Line:
The circus master
Welcome us to the show
More fun with Mickey
And in the Center Ring…Mickey!
Mickey has played so many different rolls in his movie
career, it is always fun to see which one that will get picked for Hallmark’s
Mickey’s Movie Mousterpieces ornament series.
For 2019, they went with the 1936 short “Mickey’s Circus” as their
inspiration.
The short itself features Mickey and Donald putting on a
special performance of their circus for a crowd of orphans. After the introduction from Mickey, Donald
takes over with his performing seals, but it is the seal pup that steals the
show – and the fish. From there, Mickey
and Donald accidently get caught up in a high wire act with the orphans trying
to make it more dangerous for them.
But this ornament comes from the beginning as Mickey is
welcoming everyone to the show for the day.
While Mickey is his usual black and white self, his circus master
costume is a red, blue, and yellow primary color outfit and looks great. His hat is in one hand and his baton is in
the other.
Between Mickey’s feet and his coattails, there is plenty of
surface touching, so you can set this out on any flat surface and enjoy it
year-round. The eight in a Christmas
tree series marker is on the bottom of Mickey’s feet. He does tip forward noticeably when you go to
hang him, but a few well-placed Christmas tree branches will hide that.
Mickey’s Circus makes a nice addition to the ornament
series. The colors help him stand out on
your tree, and you can’t help but smile as you look at him. Any Mickey fan will be glad to have this in
their collection.
Here are the rest of the Mickey’s Movie Mousterpieces
ornament series.
