This is the first step for forgiveness, Disney. It looks amazing.

They are so beautiful
Edit: I'm going to book a ticket. Then stand in front of the pylon for eight hours. Ugly crying. Ride SSE. Raise my fist at the tragedy beyond. Swoon at the pylons six hours more. Then go home.
Might need to join you.
( might not swoon for six hours though, probably four...)

We don't. I'm super curious to know what they're made of though.

Now that one drawing of Figment crying while looking at the "Leave A Legacy" monoliths as graves for past Epcot attractions can finally be put to rest.This is a really nice surprise for me....as I didn't think Disney would actually bring back the entrance prisms for the fountain.
I am delighted to see these return.
Absolutely delighted.
The entire front entrance refresh / return to previous state has been great to see happen both in person and afar.
I cannot express in mere typed words how happy I am to finally see those 'Leave a Legacy ' monoliths removed and the greenery return.
The prism back on top of the entrance fountain is just the cherry on top.
Palm trees next in front of SSE, please....

Can we please just have this moment for once? It's the only positive news we had in months. You just had to remind us didn't you?

Indeed. The proposed throwbacks, nods, and retro merchandise are an attempt to appease fans of the park whilst systematically destroying it. However, taken in isolation this is an absolutely wonderful thing.
Now if the spine redesign is redesigned again for the better, I will ride Guardians of Energy and smile at the onride photo opportunity.
Once.
If photopass is included on my park pass.
Ideally also if they renamed it back to the original name

Uhh, what?
No. Lucite would be the better choice between the two as it does not yellow like your run of the mill polycarbonate will. It still, however, is subject to physical weathering. Wind and rain will eventually dull the surface requiring it to be periodically refinished.
Complimentary Photo pass

Scared me for a minute. Thought you were saying that only certain rides would be available depending on what ticket you purchased.

I’m late to the party and just saw the pylons this morning. Good job Disney, I feel 20 again visiting Epcot back when they opened. Some good news for 2020!

Weren’t the original spires supposed to be replaced with granite ones to match the tombstones back in 99?

Everyone needs to thank Dr. Nichols from Plexicorp for the new prism pylons
I don’t believe so

I remember rumors around that time being that an AA of Father Time would be installed there. But that was just a rumor that I don’t think had any merit other than fan wishes.

What was the original name? I’m assuming something that had more to do with Energy?
