I don't think Figment is "weird Disney" even. He's a classic Disney character, one I'm kinda shocked they took until the '80s to create. Imagination is what the entire company is built on, turning that concept into a character is about as Disney as it gets.
Right!? Disney's most lucrative character in EPCOT. If there's one thing Disney understands it's milking nostalgia for all it's worth. Plus he's replacing Mickey as the official mascot. (OK that one was just for lulz) But I mean, Come on! He's not going anywhere...
You’re on wdwmagic, what else did you expect?
Tony Baxter did try in the late 70s with Disovery Bay and Professor Marvel's Gallery
If this were 2013, they’d have reason to be scared.
Why, what happened in 2013?
Even so I’m not sure Figment alone is enough to anchor an entire E Ticket. You’d at least need one other character(s) in the mix. After all, he is quite literally the figment of someone’s imagination, whether that’s Dreamfinder or Eric Idle
Random year I picked lol
Technically there is 3 Figments...Dreamfinder's naturally, Nigel Channing does create one within the queue of 2.0 which is rare footage now...Luckily @marni1971 has blessed us with footage of it..It's timestamped to said part of the queue line..
Why to do we assume it isn't the one he created in the queue? That one wasn't acting rude..
The 2.0 one obviously learned that Nigel was a huge joyless buzzkill by the time 3.0 rolled around.
Figment was in his brat era by 3.0.
we may have lost the dreamfinder, but we won one scent.
Maybe they should've used the popcorn bucket profits to refurbish the ride? Because it's been crystal clear that they don't give a hoot about the ride, at all.
