Disney World's NEW Art of Animation Resort Minnie Ears Come with a SURPRISE!

Disney is ALWAYS working on new technology! We’ve been theorizing about what’s going on with a mysterious patent for a few months now, plus there’s that crazy-cool new character tech we saw at a D23 event. And don’t forget the “real” lightsaber we recently obsessed over back in October! But there’s one area where we haven’t seen any innovation in a LONG time: Minnie ears!

Disney’s Art of Animation Resort

Listen, we love a new pair of Minnie ears. Lately, we’ve seen everything from bright green sequined ears to Alice in Wonderland Minnie ears, but now we found ANOTHER new pair of ears that come with a surprise!

It’s been a BUSY day in Disney World, and it’s not even noon! We already showed off these stunning sequined Minnie ears that just arrived in the Magic Kingdom, but we’re not done yet.

It’s a good time to be in Disney World — there are new ears popping up EVERYWHERE!

Disney’s Art of Animation hotel has a NEW pair of Loungefly Minnie ears! These aren’t any old ears, though. Remember how we said we wanted some innovation in the Minnie ear department? Well, our wish came true!

Disney’s new Art of Animation Minnie ears are super cute! They include all the characters featured throughout the Art of Animation resort, like Ariel, Simba, Nemo, and more!

It’s got all the Art of Animation Resort icons!

Turns out there’s more to these ears than we thought. When exposed to UV, they change color! One word: WHOA!

This is NEW!

Of course, we high-tailed it out the door (after paying, obviously) to see how this color-changing fabric worked. After a minute or so in the sunlight, they turned this pretty magenta color! What a FUN surprise!

WHAAAAT?!

You can buy these new Art of Animation Loungefly Minnie ears for $39.99 in the Ink & Paint shop. In the meantime, stay tuned for more Disney news, reviews, and more!
