User blog:American che/Make Your Own Perry the Platypus Inaction Figure

So today, I went to the Disney Store to make a Perry the Platypus Inaction Figure. All I can say is, what a weird/crazy/bizarre/awkward/I'm not sure kind of experience.

I got into the store, and as expected, the screen in the back of the store began playing Toy to the World, and as expected, I could quote the whole thing. Once that was done, chaos ensued.

The workers at the back of the store (where the screen is) began to hand out the kits. It took me a good ten minutes just to get one for me and my friend. Once everyone was situated, they began to tell us how to assemble them. Me, being the stupid self I am, messed up a few of the glue dots that they handed out, but it worked pretty well. It would have been a pleasant (but still kind of awkward) experience if the brother and sister behind me didn't start poking each other in the eyes and bawling them out and it wasn't a million degrees inside the store.

Oh yes, it was pandemonium.

All in all, it was a pretty fun experience, even if the workers there did condescendingly swoop down upon me and say, "Hass everyone got their nossess on? Good, now we're going on to the nexsst sstep!" (The lady had a lisp.) And yeah, the kids behind me drove me crazy, but the Perry was pretty cool, even if it was made of cardboard, glue dots, and foam core. I'll upload a few pictures when I get the chance to. The only downside is that since I fudged up a few of the glue dots *tugs hair* the beak slid back inside the body. Really should have thought that one out.

So my question is: did you get to go? If not, do you think you'd want to go, based on my description? (I expect a 1000-word essay back very soon. No, just kidding!) Tell me in the comments!

Gosh, I'm a hypocrite, talking about disliking condescending people and then acting that way. American che {Never tick off Phineas Flynn.} 00:32, August 15, 2010 (UTC)
