The Faces Behind the Classic Disney Voices

Like many kids back in the day and even now, we were raised with some of the most iconic kids films (that adults secretly love too!) ever made. Films that transported us to far far away lands where giant castles with monsters existed and even mermaids roamed under the sea with their crustacean buddies having a good old sing song. We are of course talking about Disney!

Even to this day we are still madly in love with these true icons, so much so that it's inspired us to get our hands on some classic Disney T-Shirts featuring the well-known animated faces.

Now we all know and love the classic characters who made us laugh, made us cry (damn it Simba!) and above all else taught us some ever valuable lessons, but have you ever wondered what they actually look like....in real life??

Well look no further! Yes we've been looking into some of our all-time favourite Disney films and the characters we loved the most, searching for the real identity of the voices that spoke to our hearts. Take a look at some of the most amazing people ever.....

Exclusive New Orville Tshirts now in!

Awwwww, who remembers Orville?

http://youtu.be/TGnuMxFnc1k

A true gem from the 80's, the squeaky voiced, nappy wearing, Orville The Duck appeared on the Keith Harris Show alongside the naughty Cuddles The Monkey and stole the hearts of children country-wide! Who could resist the quirky, cute little bright green duck who sang all about his wish to fly and general sadness in the top 5 hit Orville's Song in 1983. Not us, that's why we simply had to design a nostalgic tribute Orville T-Shirt!
