Whilst browsing on the internet for defunct Disneyland attractions I came across something which I was astounded had managed to pass me by before. I found out about a 3D, sci-fi, short film,starring Michael Jackson, which used to be on at the Disney theme parks in the mid 80s-late 90s. It looked so cool! I saw that it had this cute little flying character in it, who is seen in many pictures sitting on Captain EO's (Michael's) shoulder. As it is 80s fantasy I felt quite inspired by it, and although I have never seen the film myself (but am sure it was amazing) I felt the sudden urge to make one of these guys for myself! By the way Fuzzball flies back to the screens at Disneyland California in 2010. :)
