I’ve never had a disappointing interaction with Donald. Always 10/10. I’m not sure what’s funnier: his narcissism when you’re wearing Donald merch or his anger when you’re wearing Mickey merch.

[@tuckerduke2662]

I made a video of my very first encounter with Donald Duck. He got mad at my Goofy shirt as if it were a Mickey shirt and grabbed, twisted, and pulled it in a hilarious temper tantrum. Donald Duck made sure that my vacation trip there was more memorable and greater than any other previous theme park I went to.

[@shinyagumon7015]

The Ice-Capades costumes were *articulated* ? Wow, that's so impressive, especially when you keep in mind the technology at the time and the budget they had to work with. Honestly I would love seeing you dive deeper into this topic. Also I'm down to see the weird history behind College Mascot Donald #DonaldDuckthrowsdown

[@jamesmed4]

As a kid the character costumes always fascinated me and it’s very hard to find information on them. It’s really because of the magic that Disney doesn’t give out much info I get it. I’ve gotten information only from people who have worked as Characters till your videos. Thanks DisneyDan.

[@Fighting.Flower]

This is one of the few times where the topic of "Disney" & "Remaster" being put together makes me feel excited!

[@yeseniaadames4389]

What about epic Mickey rebrushed (which is a remaster)

[@meetscottyb]

Love the vids! Former character cast member here. I was actually used to design the Buzz Lightyear costume and was the first Buzz so I’m basically a LIVING LEGEND! But this brings back SO many memories!

[@DuddleBug5]

Cool!

[@garrettdarkstar2647]

That's awesome! I'm curious, was the 1995 Toy used in any influence to the costume?

[@turkeydinnerchewie2499]

I am anxiously awaiting more Horace Horsecollar content from your channel🐴

[@dumartist]

Donald has always been my favorite! We love the duck! 💙🩵

[@sketchnotes2246]

As a kid growing up in Oregon, I always wondered why Donald was on all of the U of O merch! Would love to hear that story! #DonaldDuckThrowsDOWN

Donald is my favorite ngl 😂

Hopefully when I go to Disney, they can answer a long awaited question

Ok the Donald Duck Throw down sounds interesting

[@sayfeyadrock9987]

Oh wait!!! You forgot the Disney On Ice one!!!! I attended it December 28th 2022 and I made a very high rating (probably the same ratings as Sherine Abdelwahab, my persistent favourite singer) that I hoped to meet every performers behind the mascots, not just the one behind Donald Duck!

[@sjmhadsock4586]

But another great Disney Dan video

[@Astrotitanplays]

Fun Fact: Donald Duck Was Born When Thylacines, AKA Tasmanian Tigers Were Still Alive, Sadly, Thylacines Went Extinct In 1936.

[@deelualemana802]

You can never beat the original🎉

[@amalgamation1971]

I wish we could have that articulated Donald and others in Disney as roaming characters every day, to bad I won’t get that experience when I go to Disney world 😢

[@Haunted_Plush]

I actually like '95 Donald. He just looks so... sleepy

[@GMCFans]

Dude, I have to say I love your videos! You are so positive in a time when negativity reigns! I have just subscribed.

[@face-orange-biting-nails]

Can you do a Bugs Bunny costume evolution?

[@SwordsArt]

You should consider talking about the Splash Mountain character costumes, I think it would be pretty interesting

[@matthewhorvath4684]

yeah always heard stuff about the Oregon ducks but never the whole story, so yes #DonaldDuckThrowsDown

Shy Why

[@dolson9366]

I heard that Disney Dan actually hates Disney and he got banned from Disneyland.

[@ElyseExplosion]

We visited the parks in January, my husband's first trip since 1989. One of the big things he wanted to do was meet Donald, and we got the opportunity at Tusker House. When I mentioned that my husband had been waiting to meet him for 30+ years, Donald tapped his watch and stamped his foot. I laughed so hard. Best costume character, full stop 😂

[@tuckerduke2662]

I said to Donald Duck that I wanted to see him for 28+ years, except he was more shocked than angry.

[@tuckerduke2662]

You're right, Disney Dan. Donald Duck is a lot of fun. In fact, the very first time I met Donald Duck during the Christmas season, he saw my Goofy t-shirt and grabbed and pulled it out of anger. That was the sign that my Disney trip was not going to be ordinary at all. It was going to be amazing, which it was. I caught my whole first interaction with the duck on video.

[@BowtiesRcoool]

LOL same! You literally described my meet n greet two weeks ago lol I had a goofy shirt and I had just finished taking a pic with goofy then moved on to Donald and he was upset and turned his back lol loved it

[@xavierandresmendoza2426]

Seeing Herbie twice in this video makes me feel like we need a Herbie Disney Parks Evolution. I feel Herbie would be interesting since even in the same park, and in the same year they had two Herbie designs wandering around at the same time.

[@hayleywaalen2612]

Oh Donald, You're always getting mad.

[@katherinealvarez9216]

I still think that his garble is all cuss words

Too much anger in him

[@Alola_Hanna-Barbera_TMS_Fan]

7:31 Oh, God… Herbie, What happened to you??

[@toysvilltvstudios2.072]

Dan should do a Herbie Evolution. :)

[@meganhash7840]

One of my favorite Disney memories of all times was when I was with my grandparents at a character dining restaurant (I'm 99.9% sure it was Hollywood and vine) and Donald pointed to my grandfather's Korean War vet hat and clapped, thanking him for his service. I just thought it was so sweet and the fact Donald duck canonically is a vet too made it even cooler

[@tuckerduke2662]

They may have served in two different wars, but one thing is for certain: soldiers are pretty much brothers or sisters in arms. I thank your grandfather for his service. 😊🫡🇺🇸

[@726berkshire]

Fantastic remaster of one of your classic evolution videos. ^^ Didn’t know articulated Donald had his own Meet and Greet. Mickey usually takes most of the spotlight. #DonaldDuckThrowsDown

Ok I would adore the Oregon ducks video! Great remaster of the video, Donald is my favorite character to meet in the parks❤

[@gftyhify]

At 10:06 that’s what Donald looked like the first time I went to Disneyland in 1991. I was 4 years old and I didn’t enjoyed it at all I was terrified of the costumed characters. Although I didn’t meet Donald to me those huge pupils are straight up uncanny valley territory and would defiantly have terrified me

[@ashcashgamer5770]

Thank you Dan for your history on mascot costumes. :)

[@oswaldtheluckyrabbitsuppor5929]

The newest Donald Mascot costume is so adorable and a perfect recreation of Donald!💙 Oswald may be my favourite but I love Donald too! I wish I could meet them in a Disney park someday!

[@djtonygaming]

I have a soft spot for the cartoony Donald Duck costume, they always used promo pics with that costumes whenever they did adverts for Disneyland Paris in the swedish Donald Duck comic books.

[@Lily_5forever]

Dan never disappoints us 😊❤

[@DaffyTaffy93]

Last September I was looking all over for Donald Duck for a photo with him at Disney world I swear he was dodging me 😅 Finally got one with him on a Disney cruise months later life achievement fulfilled 😂

[@brookethomas7730]

is it wierd that at 12:10 i smelled him, like the smell of the costume from every character that you meet

[@benjaminngo9036]

to me it just smells like laundry detergent and yes ik im weird but it smells good

[@Alberto_Tellez]

My big fave is still the 2002 Modern Donald used today. Thanks for the remake Dan.

Same here. The 2002 outfit looks exactly like him.

Can you upload the evolution of Jiminy Cricket costumes in Disneyland & more? Yes or no?

[@brianszabo3870]

Cool!!! Speaking of Donald Duck, any thoughts on bringing back the Duck Family that made appearances throughout Donald’s 50th in 1984? Not to mention bringing other Disney Duck Family members to the parks, especially at Disneyland’s new Toontown.

[@averyeml]

None of those ice capades costumes truly came out unscathed but Donald feels like he’s been the least messed up since the beginning.

[@KatieD-k2c]

I'm so happy you remade this video. Donald is my favorite character and I love seeing all his versions. I need his cruise outfit for myself. Haha.

[@Ireton06]

Excellent update didn’t expect the vintage ice skate footage, really neat to see

Your laugh is so infectious!!

[@eliassmeke3991]

Please 🙏 can you do evolution of Peanuts characters costumes in Knott’s Berry Farm and the Cedar Fair theme parks please 🙏 Disney Dan?

[@NintegaDario]

Regarding the ending, it's more or so you focus more on an air pocket in your left cheek, I don't know about laying your tongue on the roof of your mouth, it basically happens on it's own when doing the voice. I can do the impression and say some sentences.

[@DuchessRococoPuff]

So cool to see the old archival footage of the parks and the ice-capades! Thank you as always for putting so much work and research into these videos.

Wow what a wonderful history of Donald Duck! Your coverage of Donald’s different costumes is fantastic! Donald Duck is such a special character in my heart. I love his adorable feathers and his cute little sailor suit too! The powdered blue eyes from the 80s costume actually look okay to me but the new eyes are great too. Thank you so much for sharing this with us! Please do the Oregon University Duck history too! @#Donaldduckthrowsdown!

[@diegoleonelreyes]

Disney Dan remember your Lego Dimensions videos

7:39, Optimus prime with dentures Some of the storybooks from the 80s does have prime with a human face

[@zestyrats]

Whe I went to Disney world with my fam back in 2019, we went to animal kingdom and did one of the buffets around the switch between breakfast and lunch. Donald ended up walking around at somepoint and came up to our table in which after a bit I think I went to reach for my drink but ended up knocking it over, but it was okay cause Donald took the fault for it :’) He made a little scene out of cleaning it up it was really funny

[@frangelicaleo5856]

Does anyone think the late 1960's Donald duck costume looks kind of scary?

You need to be a sassy performer to be friends with Donald! We were in animal kingdom and my kids (3 and 5 at the time) walked up to Donald , huge smile and autograph books out he slapped them out of their hands and brought them in for a huge hug and it was hysterical! We got a really good pics with him. Then daisy stole my husband and walked down to show him off to Uncle Scrooge lol

That sounds so fun. I wish that happened to me in my youth.
