Theming

Is anyone else disappointed in the theming? I went yesterday and it's a total Marvel Comics push instead of Bugs, etc (WB) push. I tried getting a t-shirt that was cute, something with Bugs or a character and it's all Marvel or general GA "tribal" wear. It sucks.

I am assuming that you were at Gurnee. It is amazing that you can't even find much of Looney Tune merchanidise anymore. You are right, it seems like everything is a super-hero comic book!

Been going since 1978. It's very, very strange to go there. I remember being so little ridding the bumble bee ride wearing pigtails on the side of my head, to the mid 80s wearing really, really bad pink shorts and shirt (hello 1985!), to now being 35 and I can't wait to bring my own when we have them.

But yea the theming is a shame. I always loved the Bugs w/ the stars and stripes.

That's true. The show is really corny but hey... it's worth it to see the old bugs costume.
