WDI currently working on Jungle Cruise

Just wanted to let everyone know that WDI is currently working on the Jungle Cruise animated figures at night, which has been going on for about a week now.

Honestly, I dunno what the deal is yet. I spoke to a friend briefly this morning about it. I'll try and find out more tonight or tomorrow.

EDIT: So this is the beginning! Thanks, Martin!

Yea. The animals on the JC are not AAs. They're animated figures.

AAs are much, much more sophisticated.

Ah, that's true. But when you say animated I kept thinking of that Lightning McQueen AA from the D23 Expo

We saw several hippos on our backstage tour in August, but they were out for just some repainting.

Yea, there's almost always at least one hippo back there.

The best was when the headless hippo was back there.
