Photos coming soon, but I wanted to let you guys know what has happened to the space that was the 25th anniversary gallery space in Innoventions. I was going to check to see what if anything had been added. Well, my timing was right. One door was open, but was blocked with the blue crowd control strips. The room was filled with Segways and the floor was marked with rows of small orange cones. The guests were all wearing their helmets and were watching a training video. The wall art displays for all of the countries were still on the walls, but the "guts" of the gallery had all been removed. :cry:

I miss the gallery too, but you have to remember that much of the display consisted of people's personal collections. I'm sure they wanted it back.

It is sad to see the gallery go but atleast they are using the room for something.

Torn here, as it was never meant to be forever, but at the same time you could say at least WoL is being used for something, but I don't think anyone is happy about that.

I'm just happy we had a gallery to begin with... I spent many hours just looking at the displays during my post-October 1st visits to the gallery. To me, it summed up all that I appreciated of Epcot, new and old.

The gallery holds a special place in my heart, considering its ties to the 25th, but looking at how incredible it came out for 2007, I can't even imagine what a similar concept could be like for the 50th in 2032.

Full former attraction ride-thru videos anyone? :animwink:

Adam....If you can dream it, you can do it.;)


Love the idea for the Figgy.:D:lol::lol:

Mind you, hidden beneath his numbered foot pad would be a secret pin. 1 of a kind beneath each number... So secret that you would have to decide whether or not to open the foot. But, if you open the foot, Figment's bones dissintegrate, making him a mere Skin-ment.

Its up to you--get the secret pin and lose bearded Figgy forever or keep Figment intact without ever knowing what the pin could be... Thats how I'd catch the customer! :lol:
