[EPCOT Explorer]

As always, we agree on CCore/Inno. Hopefully the changes outside make their way in.

Question...Where do you pick up the Inno maps? They look nice, and I'd love to pick one up on Mission:EPCOT*














*aka EE uses a Shopper Pass to get into EPCOT for two hours to pick up a AA Figgy :lol:

 

[EpcotServo]

Really? Mission Space?

C'mon...Why not Soarin'? That cover art is a billion times better.

I too am curious as to why they picked M:S over some of the other attractions...

However, my one guess could be that they want to possibly re-publicize that ride, since it could use a boost in attendance. Just a guess though, since it's a semi-strange choice.

I have heard M:S is low on attendance....:shrug:


Next thing we will know it has a sinkhole.:lookaroun:lol:

Ladies and gentlemen... CommuniFloor Blue!

On an interesting side note, while I was snapping these shots I spotted a rather official looking gentleman with a pencil in his ear and a tape measure clipped to the back of his belt taking pictures of the Electric Umbrella doors and windows in the breezeway. He then went inside and took some pictures of a couple of the classic CommuniCore building supports and walls in the restaurant. Take that for what you will.

That's all I've seen of notable interest so far, I'll post as I see anything interesting, maybe something from The Land later.

So, what's going on with the fountain? I don't care about the maps... just give me a working fountain!

You know what would be the 1-2-Puncharoo..Putting the image of Body wars on the cover...:lookaroun

The Innovention Map Stands are at the entrance of Storm Struck and near the exit of What's Your Problem?

Nice to see the new Innoventions theme nearly done now. I especially like how Mission: Space blue it is...

And I would guess that gentleman is just surveying anything else to take care of...

 

[Mr.EPCOT]

Figgy!

 

[EPCOTPluto]

^ Such empty space there...

Still a great shot!

Well, if the original version was still there this would be the mystery/horror section of JII..

 

[EPCOTPluto]

^ Really? Any layouts of the old track to new track, not to bring up an old topic or such...?

 

[Mr.EPCOT]

The construction wall has expanded across from the IBM ThinkPlace in Innoventions West. Another new venue coming, perhaps?

The new Innoventions Theme still has a bit more left to do.
1.Remove Tarps.
2.Remove Checkerboard flooring.
3.re-paint buildings.
4.Disney officialy refers to buildings as Blue and Green.
5.Possible return of Tom Morrow 2.0
:animwink:

Yes, Innoventions at EPCOT Center's opening was very cool. I know I have a few photos on my blog from 1983 of it.... somewhere!
(One day, I'll have to do a retro trip report!)

New blue flooring looks nice.

LOVE the shade of blue! Very soothing, and futuristic with the white.

It's also the color of my room.:lol:

Figgy!

Awww.
