    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    Bizarre, what I can say though is that the second photo looks terrible.. pupils in the eyes aren’t painted correctly (too small), making him look dazed) and the face definitley isn’t secured to the mech properly, which is what’s causing the space under the eye sockets and mouth to be...

    News Country Bear Jamboree is getting new songs and acts

    That’s def a question I had in mind/am definitely going to ask when I’m able to speak with him for my Talking Mickey Mouse (the audio-animatronic talking/storytelling toy by Worlds of Wonder, similar to Teddy Ruxpin) research project soon. :

    And in regards to Larry Nikolai.. he actually came up with various designs for Figment later on. Mainly a very early Figment costume design before the 04 or current ones we have now, a Disney & Kodak executive award that never got fully made.. ‘and’ also designs for the Figment Cafe, which I...

    Btw, for you Park and talent connection nerds out there… George Wilkins & Russell Brower, famed DisneyParks composers & sound designers, while they did all the music & sound design for Teddy Ruxpin’s stories aswell. They also did all the stuff for the original Journey Into Imagination pavilion...

    Love Welcome to Pooh Corner & Dumbo’s Circus. Hence why I mentioned my involvement in providing some materials with for Ken Forsse docuseries aswell. Besides the connection with The Talking Mickey Mouse being the Disney answer to Teddy Ruxpin basically. It’s got footage and stories involving the...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    The reason why I don’t like that idea.. of taking the modern Disney Junior approach (taking all the nuance, personality, humor, and genuine sincerity out of it in favor for something that falls completely flat in comparison & feels overly pandering/like it’s trying way too hard.. looking at you...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    Yet that seems to be why they’ve been upgrading hydraulic powered AA figures to updated electric motor powered ones for that very reason. Why not simply do the same for whatever system was running the turntable, especially if the infrastructure is still there behind the base boards/temporary...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    But isn’t the turntable mech literally there behind wall & floor boards? I’m certain it’s still there and that it wasn’t removed. You can even see the structure still along the walls and floors if you know where to look, It again probably just needs some tlc to get it running again, much like...

    They might have to rebuild them.. but considering the original molds are still present. ( been on display at recent D23 exhibits and videos showing the interior WDI figure sculpting room. It should practically cost nothing to make new molds of those and use the updated AA tech they’re using for...

    After the 2 other revamps both have gotten intense scrutiny for their cheap, slap-dash fashion they were done? Cmon now... Journey Into Imagination absolutely is another one that needs to live up to what was originally there. Especially when you consider its capacity & popularity back in the day.

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    Another thing I truly ought to mention btw… considering the amount of changes they could make to Splash Mountain and how much investment they could put into crafting stuff for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. A film that didn’t do well at the box office & barely had much merch when it released. Journey...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    The whole concept of simply “extend the downstairs ImageWorks area for the ride track” with Dreamfinder slapped onto the current attraction is incredibly shortsighted considering that was originally where the OG finale/Dreamfinder taking your photo, unload, and OG small merch stands/shelves were...

    2024 Walt Disney Company Annual Meeting Of Shareholders


    That’d certainly make more sense. Though the only problem with this reasoning is.. the show isn’t on Amazon rn as we speak. They’ve got the 2 direct to video holiday movies Mickey’s Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse & Mickey’s House of Villains, but not the actual show itself...

    2024 Walt Disney Company Annual Meeting Of Shareholders


    Gotta say though, it’s odd they relied so heavily on reused footage from a show they won’t even put on their own service nor hardly acknowledge (for whatever bizarre reason. It darn well should be) when they were able to do new traditional animation of Ludwig for a Disneyland Facebook post last...

    2024 Walt Disney Company Annual Meeting Of Shareholders


    Yep.. also, interesting thing to note is the heavy usage of House of Mouse footage despite it not being available on Disney + for whatever bizarre reason… Meaning, They really need to put House of Mouse on the service soon. There’s really no good excuse for it not being there at this point...

    I’m Leaving WDWMagic

    I honestly think it’s mostly in your head. I don’t think anybody is intentionally setting out to upset or make fun of ‘you’, they just have different opinions on Wish than you do. Not to mention, it’s truly a stretch to say you’re the “only one that loves Disney” when most of us on this forum...

    Wish (Walt Disney Animation - November 2023)

    Hey, ya know.. maybe don’t let this get to you so personally? It’s just a movie.. and ultimately it’s just a company that owns it, ya know. Trust me, I get it.. you feel like with the attachment you have a sense of ownership of it, but ultimately you don’t. Just realize you can only control what...

    Figment film in the works

    I’d prefer to see something in the style of the Disney animated classics rather than the educational films aimed at elementary schoolers. Something with the Paperman animation style but in color and the classic sincere style writing that appeals to all ages (none of the meta/overly self...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    I personally think it’d make more sense to have Dreamfinder & Figment have an additional 3D/4D show in the Magic Eye Theatre. Especially considering how @Figments Friend had mentioned that an additional 3D/4D film starring the 2 characters was indeed planned, possibly even made, but just never...

    Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

    Out of all the things that’d bring ‘both’ the nostalgic superfans, aswell as newcomers back to the Disney parks. This would ‘absolutely’ be the thing that’d bring guests back and I think something they’d be willing to invest heavily into, especially with Universal’s Epic Universe on the way so...
