My mother gave most of my childhood toys away to visiting cousins and the 'deserving poor' and, as a result, has much to answer for: whenever I see an item like this (currently up for auction), I so want to own it ––– in order to recover a few fragments of what I once had but have no more!

MICKEY MONDAYS: Manifestations of the Mouse
Who lives in the Castle?
Sleeping Beauty?
Cinderella?
NO!
Open the roof and up pops ––– MICKEY!!
This novelty was made in China for Disneyland Paris and note the missing 'i' (apart from the 'dot) in 'Disneyland'!
UPDATE:
Thanks to some help from my friend Richard Kaufman, I can now tell you that this is
one of a set of four McDonald's premiums from a child's "Happy Meal" in 1996 each featuring a Disney character in one of the park buildings.
The other toys featured Minnie in Minnie's House (Mickey's Toontown), Donald Duck in Space Mountain and Daisy Duck in It's a Small World.
