Disney is doubling down on the modern makeover of the iconic auction scene in the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction with a new limited-edition doll that depicts Captain Redd, the bride-for-sale animatronic that was turned into an independent female pirate at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort in 2018.The Redhead, Before and AfterCredit: DisneyIn 2017 at Disneyland Paris and 2018 at Magic Kingdom Park and Disneyland Park, Walt Disney Imagineers made one of the most controversial changes of all time: overhauling the auction scene in the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction.Originally, the auction scene featured men bidding on women for brides, essentially trafficking them. “We wants the redhead!” some of the men chanted.As the Disney parks work toward a more culturally inclusive enviornment, Imagineers didn’t want children seeing women as objects to be purchased.Credit: DisneyThe new auction scene features a punny tribute to its predecessor: the female pirates are selling stolen goods, including chickens, making it a “chick auction.” The iconic redhead became Captain Redd, a swashbuckling pirate who can hold her own against the men in her orbit.As with any change to an original Disney Parks attraction, this update was controversial. Some fans are happy that the ride is more respectful toward women, while others believe it sanitizes the realities of piracy and unnecessarily complicates a theme park icon.Limited-Edition Pirates of the Caribbean DollEight years later, Disney is doubling down on its makeover of the Pirates of the Caribbean auction scene. As part of the upcoming D23 Expo in Anaheim, California, the company has announced its second doll inspired by a Disney Parks attraction: Captain Redd. (The first was the Werecat Lady from the Haunted Mansion.)Credit: Disney Parks BlogThe limited-edition doll is inspired by the updated version of the redheaded audio-animatronic and the roaming face character that sometimes appears at Disneyland Park.“Our doll is based on the updated version, so we have her posed out as she is in the ride, commanding the auction,” said designer J. Fuchs in a Disney Parks Blog interview.Only 3,000 of the Captain Redd dolls were made. They will first be available at D23 Expo from August 14-16, then online at the Disney Store on August 17 at 8:00 a.m. PST.What did you think when Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort updated the Pirates of the Caribbean auction scene?
