Peter is barely mentioned.<br /><br />You should give them a try. No they aren't pure Barrie, but they aren't all "cute" either. They have nothing to do with the movies, no silly "working on the change of seasons" or anything...<br /><br />They aren't Disney-ish at all. I think they are definitely based on Barrie's work, rather than on the cartoon.MLhttp://secondtotheright.canalblog.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7938459117789143606.post-69194720569286797042010-07-30T16:35:21.789-05:002010-07-30T16:35:21.789-05:00Thanks for the comment, ML.

That's why I said "Tinker Bell expansions" in the post. ;) However, I also do not pay much attention to them. First, I am ironically not really a fan of Tink, and I certainly am not entirely fond of the "Disney Pan." Regardless of its cuteness, it still gets outweighed by the purist in me. So it matters very little to me, and as I said, I'm happier that Mab 'belongs' to Barrie, and I suppose now me.
