Disney World has been called out online after it released new merchandise with a very embarrassing spelling error on it.
A new line of clothing featuring characters from Disney's beloved Fox and the Hound movie hit stands at the Orlando, Florida-based theme park this week.
In collaboration with SkinnyDip, the release featured multiple T-shirts and sweatshirts that were adorned with the characters from the classic film in honor of its 45th anniversary.
But fans were quick to notice that there was a major mistake on some of the clothing.
It turns out, Disney spelled the name of the character Tod incorrectly on one of the T-shirts and one of the sweatshirts.
The white tee, which costs $38, included an image of Tod along with some flowers on the front. On the back, it featured the character Copper and in big pink lettering it said: 'The Fox & the Hound.'
Underneath, much smaller, it read: 'Copper & Todd.'
In addition, a $55 dark green sweatshirt that contained an image of the two characters playing surrounded by some strawberries had a similar mishap.

Alongside the characters it said their names, but Tod's once again featured two D's.
Disney fans and bloggers were quick to call the company out on the mistake.
'It is a small thing. It is also the kind of small thing that a merchandise line built specifically around a 45th anniversary probably should have caught, especially since the name appears prominently in both designs,' Inside the Magic noted.
The clothing is currently being sold at the shop Disney Ever After in Disney Springs, the shopping, dining and entertainment complex at Walt Disney World.
The Daily Mail has reached out to Disney World and SkinnyDip for comment.
It comes weeks after Disney was slammed after a guest noticed that a ride prop was being held together with duct tape.
X user @CoasterK24 took to the platform in late July to share their outrage after they saw that a decoration on the line for Tiana's Bayou Adventure was covered in adhesive tape.
They shared a snap of a fake car in the queue area for the boat ride, which had a slew of large and very noticeable pieces of tape along the edges.

The attraction is inspired by the movie The Princess and the Frog, and the queue is designed to completely immerse guests in the universe.
As they wait for the ride, they are transported into old-school Louisiana, where they get a walk through the headquarters for Tiana's new business, Tiana's Foods.
The X user claimed the use of duct tape completely ruined the ambiance, pointing out that The Princess and the Frog takes place in the 1920s, before duct tape was even invented.
'Tiana's Bayou Adventure is literally being held together with duct tape, which mind you was not invented during the time period this ride takes place in,' they raged.

The post sparked immense fury for the theme park, as many others agreed that it was not fitting.
'Walt [Disney] would have a freaking conniption if he saw this,' one user replied.
'I wish Disney cared more about this [ride]. Hopefully it’s a temporary fix,' another wrote.
'Oh my God, no way. This is so embarrassing,' someone else penned.
'My God, Disney, fix [Tiana's Bayou Adventure]. This is embarrassing for a top tier theme park,' agreed a different fan.
