News Figment meet and greet returning to EPCOT at Walt Disney World in a 'whole new way'

[Cmdr_Crimson]

Only way we would know that something was to slowly start happening is the mysterious reason they decide to close and move the DVC member lounge for unknown reasons, end and close the Disney+ film festival in magic Eye theater, and Mickey moves back to Communicore hall...While the other M&G's remain for a few more months before they close leaving Imageworks a shell of it's former self...That's what I think is how it's gonna go down..They'll just keep us in suspense without saying a word for a few more months until they state something..

Any timeline of when this will reopen? Is this a quick reskin or something that will take a while?

4-5 years judging by the pace of their other work

Could they at least replace "The Link" sign to "Portal to Figonia" The internet never created Figment...

Any word on if this will actually be interesting? Or should we just expect Figzilla again?

Pretty sure we all will need to when we find out.

He’s gonna be a fur character again, but absolutely not the same - new much shorter costume

The question remains, Will Figment be his usual self or some off-model Rudish or Disney Junior dragon?

My understanding is definitely on-model!

Figment will begin meeting Guests tomorrow, September 10, at EPCOT.

Oh I see… a whole new way.

 

[mightynine]

Big Fig is back!

 

[VJ]

is that really what they took a year to develop?

 

[Moth]

Shin Figzilla!!!

 

[brb1006]

Yep

While some parts of me like the new costume, I just can’t believe that they are continuing the trend of “Inconsistent Figment” by them going with the design of the animatronics instead of the design of Figment in literally everything else(50th statue, merch, artwork).
