These Are the References You're Looking For

Hey guys! Chill here, yet again. So, everyone probably knows about the Disney takeovers on Club Penguin. But did you know that there's more than a franchise or two hiding around Club Penguin? Let's take a look at the obvious, and some of the not so obvious.

• Star Wars - While not exactly Disney at the time, the first reference of a "Disney" property was way back in 2008, believe it or not, during Quest for the Golden Puffle. Near the end of the play Yukon says "These weren't the puffles we were looking for", a reference to Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, where Obi-Wan Kenobi says "These aren't the droids you're looking for". Interestingly, over 5 years later, the Star Wars Takeover was also based on A New Hope.

• Cinderella - During the Medieval Party 2012, at the Town you could see a pumpkin in the bottom left corner shaped like a carriage. In the Cinderella movie, the Fairy Godmother transforms a pumpkin into a carriage shaped almost exactly like the one in Club Penguin.

• Marvel - June 2012 brought Takeovers to Club Penguin, the first one being the Marvel Superhero Takeover, which returned in April 2013. This doesn't really need any more explanation than that.
• Shake It Up! - The Music Jam was fused with this Disney Channel show in July 2012, creating the Make Your Mark: Ultimate Jam as a tie-in with a contest the show was running at the time. While not exactly a full-fledged takeover, a few items referenced the show and Rocky and CeCe the show's main characters came for a guest mascot appearance, being the first to do so.
• The Haunted Mansion - Gariwald's mansion from the Halloween Party 2012 was based off of this lovable attraction, the Haunted Mansion. When you're outside the attraction at the actual parks, you might hear a tune which Gariwald's mansion clearly drew inspiration from.

•  Monsters University - Just like Marvel, Monsters University had its own takeover in June 2014. Enough said.
• Mickey Mouse/Disney Channel - At the aforementioned Monsters University Takeover, ROR's house had a reference hidden in the dance floor. The three circles are obviously the iconic Mickey Mouse head, but when reversed, they also match the Disney Channel logo.
  
  
  

•  Toy Story - At the Monsters University Takeover during the Scare Games, one of the obstacles is an army man that parachutes from the ceiling, the same army man seen in the Toy Story trilogy.

 

•  Teen Beach Movie - Like Shake It Up, the Music Jam was fused with this Disney Channel movie in August 2013 to create the Teen Beach Movie Summer Jam. Although not technically a takeover, you could call it one, with rooms, items, and music based off the movie. Brady and McKenzie, the main characters from the movie, also visited.
• The Muppets - The most recent takeover, based off of The Muppets (more specifically their latest movie, Muppets Most Wanted) was the Muppets World Tour. Kermit the Frog also made a mascot gust appearance, like Rocky, CeCe, Brady, and McKenzie before him.

So there you have it! Every Disney reference in Club Penguin that I know of so far. Are you surprised there were so many? Leave a comment below.
