He don't look like but Mickey Mouse, born November 18, 1928, is now 83! Through all these years his appearance changed and from the 2D animation of Steamboat Willie or Fantasia to his latest CGI 3D style, Mickey has succeed to stay younger than ever!
With Walt he was there at the opening of Disneyland, and when Walt was saying that "it all started with a mouse" we all know what mouse he was talking about...
Since Disneyland opening Mickey was there every day, in any Disney theme park in the world. The character costume also evolved through the years but the latest innovation and without a doubt a magical improvement is the "talking Mickey" that WDW guests can now experience. And the 1.2 version is better than ever and really impressive as you will see in the video below.
So, Happy Birthday, Mickey, and see you soon in the parks and, hopefully, on screen!

This talking Mickey is very well done!
Even though there was a character costumed Mickey on Disneyland opening day, that by the way looked really awful!, I think that afterwards there was no costumed Mickey on the park for many years, until 1959 if I'm not mistaken.
Anyway Happy Birthday Mickey!
