Does anyone know if those new Epcot t-shirts and jerseys are still available? I'll be there in about a month and was really hoping to get one :)

So I passed back through tonight. They didn't really bother me and I was focusing on them. I get the complaints and wouldn't be against a different lighting solution though.
Standing about 2 feetish away and taking a picture at face level:

And looking at the newer lights over by TT:

Also keep in mind that I'm running a higher then normal exposure on my phone so it could be making them look brighter then normal.

In one of the Epcot threads, it was brought up how dirty Imagination is. I grabbed a picture tonight:

Ya...it's grimy.

Those lights are not going to age gracefully and you know 10-15 years down the road when they let the place go again where complaining about these lights.

I saw the shirts but I don't remember seeing spirit jerseys. I haven't seen any of the cool shiny jackets either but I think those were confirmed as a very limited run.

I don’t personally think the lights are horrible. Stylistically they try too hard, I would have gone for something a little less obvious.

I also think as a rule Disney property is a disaster for light pollution, there should be a focused effort to improve that as fixtures are replaced... but clearly that’s never been a priority.

New Fantasy Land is leading the way with barely perceptible lighting!

So interestingly, they appear to have aborted uploading the previous version. They uploaded the low-res version but not the higher res. I did notice a mistake, which could have been the cause--part of the monorails ended up below the tracks. However, they have now uploaded a new version which has way more changes.

Brace yourselves.

I doubt the accuracy of that map - There’s not a single merchandise kiosk shown between The Land and Imagination! 😉

I wonder why they still haven’t updated the Energy building to its Guardians color scheme yet. And the fountain in front is still there too.
