Disney Facts: A look at the giant icons at the Pop Century Resort
Disney’s Pop Century Resort at Walt Disney World features 20th century pop culture icons. Here’s a look at some of those symbols:
- The bowling pin tower is more than 65 feet high. A regulation pin is 15 inches tall.
- The giant Rubik’s Cube reaches 41 feet off the ground. Compared to the 4-inch high toy.
- The 8-track tapes are more than 35 feet tall. A real 8-track is 5 1/4 inch tall.
- The table soccer players are more than 12 feet tall.
- The giant Big Wheel icon can “accommodate” a child rider that weighs up to 877 pounds (or so says the sticker on the towering riding toy).
- In the 1960s area, giant “thumbprints” can be spotted on the ears of the elephant peeking out of the giant Play-Doh canister. And can you name the child depicted on the Play-Doh can? That’s Play-Doh Pete!
