I think they’re just replacing the heads; the body movements will remain unchanged, if I’m not mistaken.

Awesome. After this one re-opens, do 7DMT and MMRR next, especially MMRR. The Mickey in the car is especially egregious.

IMO, the 7DMT ones work decently because the beards obscure the edges and the gems are supposed to be emitting an otherworldly glow. MMRR could definitely use a rethink, but the issue is more with the attempt to bring 2-D into 3-D than with the projection itself.Frozen Ever After Now Closed for Audio-Animatronics Overhaul at Walt Disney World

If I had to pick another ride to close next for animatronic upgrades, it'd definitely be Mermaid. I think it's the one currently most hindered in appeal by lack of motion in the supplementary figures and poor initial build and maintenance of its core figures.

Looking forward to seeing how the new figures appear and move.
The projection faces always looked a bit ‘off’ to my eyes, and hopefully this upgrade will resolve that.

That is good to see. I appreciate the movement capabilities of the advanced AAs. However, I do mind when they seem to flail rather vigorously when there is no need (ie., the first Tiana figure in TBA). They should be programmed to move with purpose. Hoping that is what we see here.
