Reminiscing the timeless tale of Jack and the Beanstalk, Disney has turned the story into a more funny and enjoyable animation with “Mickey and the Beanstalk” and immortalized into sculptural masterpiece by “ENESCO WDCC Mickey and the Beanstalk” and beautifully crafted by Jacqueline Perreault Gonzales. Living in a drought-strickened land, Mickey, Goofy and Donald were dangerously running out of food. Their only means to get through this hardship is to sell their cow. However, Mickey was duped into exchanging their cow for beans instead of money and Donald threw the beans outside their window out of anger. The magic beans sprouted upward towards the sky taking their house with it and Mickey, Donald and Goofy found themselves in a place in the sky where everything is gigantic and entered a huge castle. The owner of the castle is a mean giant named Willie and as he captured Donald and Goofy, Mickey made a daring effort to rescue his friends and they were able to escape the castle and the giant, taking some of the riches of the castle as they descend on the land below.
• Mickey Mouse: “Shhh!”-Mickey signaling everyone to be quiet being careful not to wake Willie the Giant.
• Singing Harp: “Beautiful Diversion”-singing a beautiful song to make Willie sleep and helping Mickey and his friends escape.
• Goofy: “Tread Lightly”-carefully tiptoeing not to make a sound.
• Donald Duck: “Not a Peep”-looking back cautiously to watch any signs disturbance.
Commemorate Goofy’s 75th Anniversary with his first starring cartoon in “Fishing Follies.” As Goofy and his pet grasshopper named Wilbur went to go fishing, they ran into funny as well as teary situations.
Greek mythology enthusiasts and even non enthusiast will be thrilled by the story of Hercules with Disney's adaptation entitled “Hercules” and artistically sculptured in “ENESCO WDCC Hercules.”
• Hercules and Pegasus: Defiant-ready to fight monsters, titans and evil gods, Hercules and Pegasus will stop them at their tracks.
• Megara: It’s Been a Real Slice-a vixen who is able to seduce any man with her looks and smooth talk.
