    News From The Disneyland Paris Round Table Discussion: Star Tours II, Marvel, Russian Christmas & RFID

    One of the benefits of being a Disneyland Paris shareholder is that you get the opportunity to sit down with some Disneyland Paris execs from time to time for round table discussions. The Disneyland Paris representatives will bring up points for discussion as can the shareholders. I’ve not been to one myself but Disney Central Plaza member Brunogamer updated everyone on what happened at yesterday’s discussion and @parcorama kindly relayed to all of us on Twitter.

    Disneyland Paris Pins for February 2013 – Star Wars, Beasts & Princesses
