I stumbled across this page on Yahoo.com. Minnie Mouse, Daisy Duck, and Goofy are made into a style you'll never want to see.

What trope does it fall to?

Good God, it looks like they got sucked through Tim Burton's drinking straw.

Goofy looks suave.

GOOFY NEVER SHOULD LOOK SUAVE, HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE OF SUAVE WHAT IS THIS I DON'T EVEN.

Also, I'm sure a 'Disney promotes child anorexia' public controversy is going to blow over those Daisy and Minnie designs.

Goofy looks freaking hilarious. Funniest thing I've seen all day. Probably not intentional, though.

I'm not sure what I find more disconcerting about Goofy: that he looks like Stefan Urquelle, or his way-too-defined human hands.

I sort of like weird hipster Goofy. It reminds me of something Goofy would wear in Goof Troop in an attempt to look cool, prompting Max to shout, "DAAAAAAD!" Only to then sorta realize that maybe his dad does look a little bit cool, but Dad looking cool only makes it doubly uncool and awkward.

I don't hate the concept. But really, minnie and Daisy are way too skinny. Specially when you compare them with Goofy which is supposed to be a skinny character but looks much less skinny than them.

Anorexia much?

Goofy's hands, WHY ARE THEY LIKE THAT

So Goofy's arms are normally longer than his legs. Is that why this Bizzaro-Goofy has tiny T. Rex arms?

Oh.

Is Cruella De Ville seriously gonna be one of the "Models"? She was designed to parody this very thing.

Goofy would be fine if his head was smaller and his hands were...not creepy.

Minnie and Daisy...what the hell? Burn it. Burn it now!

[up][up] If your definition of "stylised" is drawn from Rob Liefeld.

Yeah, it's a completely different kind of horribly awful.

The only one that looks half decent is Daisy.

The others look like horrible Burtonesque washouts from Deviant Art.

If they add Pooh, will A.A. Milne raise from his grave, or will just spin down there really fast?

Why don't they have Donald and Mickey? Those two are probably more iconic and loved than any of these three.

I wasn't saying that they looked exactly like the works of Liefeld.

Only that they are just as eye-gougingly bad.
