Way back in the day Bart was originally drawn and colored with a blue shirt. They changed it to orange to make it pop on TV, but didn't change it in the press kits or marketing materials
Also, literally in this video when showing 1987 Simpsons, the clip is blue shirted Bart! I've also heard rumors that they didn't rush to make anyone change it because that was an easy way to tell what was a knockoff.
Fun fact: one of the Homer costumes Dan featured was used in an episode of L.A. Law wherein Dan Castelenetta, the voice of Homer Simpson, played a theme park Homer that was being sued by the theme park he worked at, staying in character in the costume until a certain point.
@@Ilsezwarts It was to easily identify what merchandise was not made or authorised by Fox, and take appropriate legal action. Of course now Bart wears his orange shirt in everything, but it was clever at the time to stop fraudulent products reaching the public.

When I first looked at Lisa's costume at 14:27, it looked like her necklace was actually her teeth and I was shocked until I realized it was just a necklace. 😅
6:30 Bart actually had a blue shirt in a couple of the comics if I am remembering correctly.but they did bring up the blue shirt thing in a episode (i don't remember which one though)
I remember the Simpsons game making fun of Matt Groenings name Matt's secretary: yes mister Groaning Matt Groening: it's Groening! Matt's secretary: are you sure? Matt Groening: no...
The Simpsons was my very first cartoon that I watched since I was 3 years old. I’m not joking, my grandpa got me into it & he didn’t know that show was a adult show.👍
That Homer suit from the Hollywood Christmas Parade was used in the Season 7, Ep1 of L.A. Law. It featured Dan Castellaneta as theme park employee David Champion. That episode features this great quote that can sum up both voice actors & costume characters actors. "(In Homer's voice) Nobody cares about the man inside. I know you think I'm a goofball, but the truth is, some of best years of my life have been playing Homer Simpson. Do you what's like having complete strangers, small children run up to you & hug you? To see their faces light up with joy? (Dan's voice) It's the greatest feeling in the world." I'm getting misty eyed just thinking about it.
The most confusing part about the 90's simpsons costumes to me are that back in the 1990's there was a Theme park named Boblo Island in my home town and they had the Homer and Bart costume, the history behind that park is hard to find these days since it closed september 30th, 1993. but there is footage from its final year in operation with a meet and greet with those Homer and Bart characters.
We've had over 30 years of Simpsons merchandise, and I swear that every single licensee and designer still curses Matt for Bart and Lisa's spiky hair. Anyone ever had the Bart PEZ dispenser, and how the top of his head was smooth, but the ridges around the side of his head were spiked? Same with a couple Bart plushies I've seen.
Blue shirt Bart is because the marketing "bible" that dictated to licensees how the characters were supposed to look had Bart in a blue shirt. That's why he's like that in all early Simpsons merch and so on.
Fun fact when the Simpsons movie was about to premiere and they were looking for different Springfield towns to possibly be the world premier destinations One of the runner ups was Springfield New Jersey however it did not have a movie theater so they sadly had to pick a different one I don’t remember what town one to do one of the special premieres even though you have photos of the wonderfully made Simpson costumes
I remember that Simpsons traveling mall show, I saw it at the South Dakota State Fair in probably 1991 or 92. The Skinner costume was gimmicked with a removable hair piece, since the story revolved around Bart getting in trouble for stealing the principal's toupee. I don't remember any of the other costumed characters appearing in the version of the show I saw though except for Lisa, so they might have performed different stories depending on which characters were available/affordable to venues.
Oh boy sure gonna be weird once we get Simpsons walk-arounds at Disney parks. Actually though given the Simpsons ride at Universal how exactly do these IP issues between the two parks and companies work?
Actually, Bart DID wear a blue shirt in the early days in the comics and merchandise. Other than that, great job as always. I may get a costume of either Homer or Bart whenever the time comes.
2:43 if you don't know this is me before the change of Bart having a red shirt cuz fart used to have a blue shirt you know there's a little bit of plushs with a Bart what's a blue shirt so this was probably made before the change of the red shirt
If i remember correctly, at least for merchandise, Bart’s shirt was blue for officially licensed products to differenciate it from bootleg products. bart was also supposed to have a blue shirt in general so they probably stuck with it for the costumes
Evolution of Peanuts walk around costumes, Evolution of Looney Tunes character costumes, evolution of Horace Horsecollar, The Three Little Pigs and the Big Bad Wolf, evolution of Huey Dewey and Louie, evolution of The Aristocats, Oliver and Company characters, Kuzco from The Emperor's New Groove, Phineas and Ferb, Bolt, Dug from Up, and other retired walk around Disney Park characters, evolution of Sonic The Hedgehog, Luigi, the Phillie Phanatic, etc. 📺🎥🎥🎥🎥🎥🎥🎥
There was an episode where the Homer Ice costume (and several extra heads) was used in the show L.A. Law and Dan Castellaneta was in the costume and outside the costume for the episode.
2:46 Bart was originally conceptualized with a blue shirt! You can see it in pretty much ALL the early merchandise because it was in production before the change to orange was finalized!
I was lucky enough to meet Krusty the last time I went to Universal Studios in November of last year! He's my favorite character, so I was so excited to see him! (Bob was there too, but I really don't like him-he was not amused to see how happy I was about Krusty and how apathetic I was toward him) I told him that I was a big fan of his and that he was great at what he does(Bob shook his head "no"). There was a rope separating me and the characters since full character meet and greets weren't back at that time, so we did a "pretend" hug, and when I blew him a kiss he blew me kisses back!! (Bob facepalmed in the photo lol) He was really sweet and it was a very special moment for me(I also got to meet Homer and Bart that day too!). Now that full character meet and greets are back, I wanna go back and give him a proper hug and ask for his autograph!
I did Cyberworld show 2 times at the Futuroscope (Poitiers, France) and I remember I adored the 3D effect. It was long before even a television set can do it. 😊
I fully respect Kenny's opinion but I'm on your side Dan. The Simpsons movie was super fantastic and I rewatch it often. Great to see you and Lydia work together. I can tell you both had fun with this! Also lots of wonderful laughable moments in this video, excellent humor featured here!
8:22: I never knew the was a simpsons house special, I only caught a gilmpse of it (it was the ending). I was a kid back then when I saw it. The house still exists today? I wonder…

Way back in the day Bart was originally drawn and colored with a blue shirt. They changed it to orange to make it pop on TV, but didn't change it in the press kits or marketing materials
Also most merchandise is based on concept art anyways, because it takes so much time to make it that they cant wait for the Production to be finished.
I was going to say this!!

Right! Even the OG action-figure had the blue shirt. =)

I love that Simpsonized Disney Dan looks like Hank Scorpio

Well this was certainly unexpected! I had always thought the Simpsons only had one costume version
No, the first set was incredibly horrible looking .

Uhhh.....cool, man.
You should have played the clip from the bull fighting episode. Homer: And now for a soothing blue Bart: I don't have a blue shirt.
If I remember correctly, Bart wore a blue shirt at events and in merchandise was to easily catch any bootlegs appearing.
wait, how does that even work..?
His shirt was originally blue, I believe in the pilot
@@Ilsezwarts It was to easily identify what merchandise was not made or authorised by Fox, and take appropriate legal action. Of course now Bart wears his orange shirt in everything, but it was clever at the time to stop fraudulent products reaching the public.
actually 🤓 they colored bart’s shirt blue to contrast against the red packaging licensess had planned
that’s also why he’s got a green shirt
@@EleritheFairie That’s not why he had a blue shirt. He had a blue shirt in early artwork which was used before the finalized art was finished
Just you wait Dan, one day we'll have The Simpsons as meet and greet Characters at the Disney Parks and maybe an Simpsons Theme Land.

Don't remind me.
The new paint on the simpsons house has a way more accurate color

6:30 Bart actually had a blue shirt in a couple of the comics if I am remembering correctly.but they did bring up the blue shirt thing in a episode (i don't remember which one though)
He also had a green shirt in the Butterfinger commercials.
Evolution of the Snoopy costume next, please!
It’s impossible to make a mask of any Simpsons character, without it, looking terrifying.
I remember the Simpsons game making fun of Matt Groenings name
Matt's secretary: yes mister Groaning
Matt Groening: it's Groening!

This was a cool video! Also the reason Bart had a Blue shirt was because he was marketed like that
And in one of the Burger King toys, he had a green shirt.

Please do a Barbie evolution!
Yes
Oh boy sure gonna be weird once we get Simpsons walk-arounds at Disney parks. Actually though given the Simpsons ride at Universal how exactly do these IP issues between the two parks and companies work?
Universal is supposed to lose the license to The Simpsons in a few years, so once that happens Disney will probably put The Simpsons into their parks
4:45
a random:
Simpsons family, did you have anything to drink?
Homer Simpson:
We had too much sugar at breakfast
i would LOVE a Barbie evolution video😁
"Lisa becomes a thumb person" Love it
Do The Evolution of The Hulk in Films and Theme Parks.
Yes please
What a perfect way to hype up for Season 34.
Please do the Barbie evolution! That would make my year ! 😂💕
You always learn something new every day. Well done and keep up with the awesome videos
I WANT TO SEE THE NEW COUSTUMES IN PERSON the old ones are just creepy
Technically an Costume Evolution, Can you do a video about the Evolution of Thomas the tank Engine replicas, Ft. The Unlucky Tug?
That will be interesting? What would we include, DOWT engines? Or just theme parks and live show versions?
@@ryanmiddleton3788 All of them! and Both! not one of them, Both!
Homer in a costume vacillates from one end of the "tic tac-to-minion" spectrum to the other. There is only one or the other.
Your laugh is as good as Tobey Maguire Spiderman lol
Definitely didn’t expect Simpson, thank you for this
The IMAX Homer Simpson reminds me of the doctor from Little Nightmares 2 😂
4:35 I love how Bart pulls his lower lip down to let the person he swallowed see better.
Omg u listened!!!!!❤❤❤❤😂😂😊😊😊
Ps Kenny is wrong about the simpsons movie
2:01 That point that makes you laugh
I know...I know, I used this in the Barney and the Teletubbies but I can't help myself
YES I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE! Can you do batman next?
Interesting choice!

Actually, Bart DID wear a blue shirt in the early days in the comics and merchandise. Other than that, great job as always.
I may get a costume of either Homer or Bart whenever the time comes.
I think Kenny's take on the movie is 100% correct, with the one exception of Spider-Pig who is utterly amazing. Spider-Pig! Spider-Pig!

Also those 1990 Simpsons costumes were used for Dreamworld theme park in Gold Coast Australia in 1991 for a Simpsons live show.
Also Dan, Bart worn a blue shirt for merchandise from 1989 to 1991 so that's why he worn a blue shirt
Another video where I didn’t realize how many variations of the costumes there actually were. Some of these are just pure nightmare fuel

The reason he has a blue shirt is because he had one in the pilot of the show!

Some of those Simpsons costumes look like a fever dream that you would have after taking a chance on two-day old milk. 😂
You should definitely make a Barbie costume evolution.
The Simpsons from universal are the best one ever
2:46 Bart was originally conceptualized with a blue shirt! You can see it in pretty much ALL the early merchandise because it was in production before the change to orange was finalized!
The reason bart has a blue shirt in a few is because when they sent out promo material, he had a blue shirt, but it blended in too much.
