The mischievous chipmunks wear their usual dinosaur onesies, but have added a few holiday touches. Dale has holiday lights wrapped around his horns, and Chip is wearing a reindeer antler headband. Their greeting area also has various holiday décor.

Mickey and Minnie

Mickey and Minnie wear a holiday twist on their usual adventurers’ garb. Mickey trades in his tan button-down shirt for a red one, and has added a plaid scarf and mistletoe to his hat. Minnie’s outfit remains mostly unchanged, though she now wears a red scarf and has added a red holiday bow to her hat.

What do you think of Mickey & friends’ holiday outfits? Will you be venturing out to Disney’s Animal Kingdom to see them in person this holiday season?
