Well I went to Epcot today and the New Character Spot was indeed open! It is very cool! I unfortunately didn't have a camera so no pictures! Sorry guys.
When you first enter the room you are greeted by an attendant who welcomes you tells you how to begin your "Adventure!" You follow a gray path and the first character you meet is Mickey. His "Spot" is theme to Transportation with a mural of what looks like characters from the Goofy Movie riding segways, a monorail, and a test track car. You then move on to Goofy where you are greeted by another Attendant who tells you that this is Goofy's version of mission control. In the back ground there is indeed a image of Mission control being over run with Aliens. After that you move on to Chip and Dale. The character attendant tells you that Chip and Dale are full of energy just like their surroundings. Someone got a picture of this space as well as Pluto's earlier. You then Move on to Pluto Where his surrounds look right out of Flowers and Trees. After that you meet Minnie who's space is filled with computers and cell phones and is all about Communication. After that an Attendant thanks you for coming and you exit out into the breeze way! The main room plays a mix of Disney Mania songs and then each location has individual sound efx.
I was talking to an attendant and they said this was the first time a space was created with the characters in mind which means they have things like air ducts right above them that drop cool air down on them and instead of having 12 stage lights on them they now have two "cool" lights. He also told me that this is suppose to be the future of meet and greats with similar venues being introduced around the world!
