Rabbit Costumes Through the Years

This is how Rabbit costumes have changed over the years.
Picture 	Year 	Description
 	1965-1970s: 	
The first Rabbit costume had a large head, a brown nose, a tongue, and a blue bandana. He is also seen carrying Piglet, allowing the performer inside the suit to control him as well with his hand.
A version of the costume where Rabbit isn't carrying Piglet and his hands are free was also made.
 	1972-1973: 	Pictured here in the Disney on Parade program, Rabbit's head shrinks and his ears point upward. He somewhat resembles his animated counterpart albeit with five fingers on his hands. It was only used in the 1972-1973 version of the touring show.
 	1983-1987: 	This is the first articulated version of Rabbit only seen in Welcome to Pooh Corner. He is shaggier, has eyebrows, white whiskers, a pink nose, and two teeth together. His body and legs are thicker too.
300x300px	1983-2005: 	Rabbit made his theme park comeback in 1983, after years of absence. His fur becomes less furry and gets a re-sculpted lemon-like head. His hands were the same as Tigger's, being all mitten glove-like. His eyebrows are thicker and he gains eyelids, which give him a calm look, and his ears face backward.
There were times Rabbit had his ears drooping downward, and would have different-sized eyes over the years.
 	2004-Present:	The current one almost looks accurate to his animated versions. His eyes are a bit thinner and far apart and his nose and muzzle are now rounded.
 	2004-2011: 	This is the second articulated Rabbit seen in the Disney Live! Winnie the Pooh show. He is modeled after the one shown in the parks today but his head is a bit shaggier and his arms are a lot thinner just like his animated counterpart.
