The Disney adult is a unique type in the fandom universe. Bringing childhood favorites into adulthood, the Disney adult has more gear available to them than most other obsessive fans, and that means either intense overconsumption or carefully curating a collection of the best Goofy, Mickey, and Dalmatian finds you can.

Luckily, Disney has its tentacles stretched out to every corner of pop culture, and a new collab with The Hundreds co-founder Bobby Kim is giving Mousekateers a new set of streetwear-themed Disney graphic t-shirts. After debuting the pack at the top of the month with a look back at Kim’s personal and professional history with Disney (mostly involving bootleg shirt ideas), the LA creative legend is back with a complete look at his Disney T-shirt collab collection, offering a quote about each shirt, including our favorite, a tribute to Scar from The Lion King.
“The Lion King is one of Disney's most beloved films — epic, emotional, and unforgettable. But while Simba is the hero, I've always had a soft spot for Disney's villains and sidekicks — the troublemakers who steal every scene they're in,” Kim said. “Scar is one of Disney's greatest villains, but for me, the hyenas (Shenzi, Banzai, and Ed) were just as iconic. They brought the humor, the chaos, and so much personality. Plus, the hyena has always been my favorite animal — so these three became some of my favorite Disney characters of all time.''
