Disney kids' spa to include Hannah Montana makeovers

Get ready for a bunch of 6-year-old girls running around Walt Disney World in blonde wigs.
Disney announced today that starting Feb. 24 Hannah Montana makeovers will be offered at the Downtown Disney Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique, Disney's high-end fantasy spa for kids.
Until now, the popular boutique, opened in 2006, has specialized in two looks: various Disney princesses such as Snow White, Cinderella and Jasmine; and various generic fantasy princess looks, including the Disney Diva and the Pop Princess.
The Hannah Montana look, from the hugely-popular Disney Channel TV show, will come with a blonde wig and microphone headset, a Hannah Montana guitar purse and other items. The girls get to hold guitars that look like Hannah's and pose for a complimentary picture.
The cost of the basic package will be $109.95 plus tax.
More will be available for additional charges, including the full Hannah Montana costume, including jacket and pants.
Other Bibbidi Bobbidi makeovers range in price from $44.95 to $179.95.
Actually, we saw some of these out at Disneyland a few weeks ago... they have already been selling the packages at the Club Libby Lu outlet at Downtown Disney. We have a Club Libby Lu at a local mall here, wonder if they are selling the Hannah Montana package there also?
As far as how it looks, if you didn't know it was Hannah Montana, you wouldn't know it. They are very generic, probably because Hannah Montana doesn't have a "distinct" look, like the princesses. But I'm sure they will still make a ton of money off of these packages, mainly from the tweens, exactly who this package was designed for. _________________ Up or Down North, South, East, or West An Adventurer's Life is Best!

one thing you have to say for the management of the mouse. They will find a way to drain every penny from a franchise, until folks are so sick of it.
Don't get me wrong. They have right to make a profit...
It is just that while Disney has always been good at merchandising, it now seems the focus rather than the side business. The movies and shows now seem the side business to the merchandising
