The partners statue from Australia's TV special: "The Wiggles Live at Disneyland Park"

Partners is a statue created by Disney Imagineer and animator Blaine Gibson for the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California. Since its unveiling on Disneyland's Main Street in 1993, it has been replicated in other Disney parks, studios, and merchandising. The statue stands 6' 5" tall, while in reality Walt Disney was actually 5' 10" tall. The dedication ceremony for the statue happened November 18, 1993 on Mickey Mouse]]'s birthday 65 years after Steamboat Willie premiered. The plaque directly below the statue in Disneyland says, "I think most of all what I want Disneyland to be is a happy place...Where parents and children can have fun, together. — Walt Disney"
