"Mickey Mouse is the most miserable ideal ever revealed...Healthy emotions tell every independent young man and every honorable youth that the dirty and filfth-covered vermin, the greatest bacteria carrier in the animal kingdom, cannot be the ideal type of animal...Away with Jewish brutalization of the people! Down with Mickey Mouse! Wear the Swastika Cross!"

Art Spiegelman used this quote on the opening page of the second volume of his comic Maus II.

This anthropomorphic mouse has evolved from being simply a character in animated cartoons and comic strips to become one of the most recognizable symbols in the world.

Got what i meant? Anyways.. I've found 2 collectables on 18Nov (Walt Disney's Birth), while I'm searching for a place to dine in early in the morning at "PO MO" (paradiz centre) with ben.

Here's the 2 collectables I've got for my Birthday this year.
