 Merchandising for the 50th ramped up to full gear with the conversion of entire stores carrying the new line. Of particular note are the gold mouse ears.
 There appear to be three lines of 50th merchandise available -- a retro line featuring lounge-inspired art, a line starring the Fab 5 dressed to represent different lands of Disneyland, and a more "grown up" one featuring the 50th's concept art.
 Some of the 50th celebration merchandise looks to borrow from an Annual Passholder line that was introduced a couple of years ago.
 Even Barbie gets in on the act with clothing resembling '50s era Mousketeers and more contemporary attire.
 So often, Disneyland visitors see toys featuring Cinderella's Castle from Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom. This is a version of the original Disney castle with special lighting effects.
 Disneyland's Sleeping Beauty Castle even takes centerstage at the Emporium's cash wrap.
 And at the World of Disney.
