I have a few questions I would like to clear up.

1.) What happened to the Alien Encounter AA?

2.) Does anyone have any pictures of the Animatronic in action? All I can find are images of the action figure. I would like to get a good look at what the AA looked like.

3.) Might as well kill two birds with one stone, what happened to the Timekeeper AA?

1.)It was closed down October 12, 2003 because too many parents were complaing it was too scary for kids.

2.) Theres youtube videos of nightvision ill look for them

3.) In 2001, the attraction was moved to the seasonal list of attractions along with Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress. In February 2006, the Walt Disney World Resort reported that The Timekeeper was to be closed on February 2006

I'm sorry, but I think the Alien looks like they just threw as many freaky parts together as they could. I just think it could've had a more cohesive design...
:lol:

It really makes it unique.

Where in Disney could you have an alien monster that looks like a
dragonfly
dragon
scorpion
lobster
alien hybrid?

Also, is it just me or does the alien look alot like Megaguiris (probably not the correct spelling) from Godzilla. I'll try to find a good pic.
