“When we first created merchandise for the attraction in 2011 in California, we used concept sketches as inspiration for the merchandise,” explained Carla. “For this new assortment, we were inspired by the many colorful scenes found in the actual attraction. We really liked the scene with Sebastian and the undersea band, and you’ll see many moments from that scene on the new items. Disney Design Group artist Randy Noble created the pastel art style, which gives much of the merchandise a soft, almost water-like look. ”
