well Disneyland is supposed to recieve it in january when it reopens from the holiday overlay according to Lutz. I just can't think of a time where Disney will have an opprotunity in florida to do it. Unless they are literally just going to do it overnight but then why not open it already?? Why wait for Disneyland to catch up? I'm thinking theres more to the plans than simply adding the hatbox figure hmmm.

Maybe they want to do DL and MK at the same time?

It could very well be that the boys at Imagineering, who are not the most punctual bunch, are still working on the figures.

We keep running in circles. I mention Hatbox ghost, someone says "whats hatbox ghost", someone explains what HB is, Epcot Explorer says "I Hope it comes to WDW" and Sir Goofy says "I believe it is still coming" cycle repeats :lol:

We need a new subject. How about Space Mountain? Are the post-show vignettes boarded up or can you still see them from the Peoplemover? I'm wondering if they will change them up

An AA figure that used to have a cool effect that was originally in the Haunted Mansion but was removed because they could never get the special effect right.

Disney has been hinting at his return since the 50th.celebration of Disneyland and everytime they update the mansions they add more and more hints of his imminent arrival. Al Lutz has confirmed that when Haunted Mansion reopens in January the Hatbox ghost will finally be returned to the ride.

What do you think the New Fantasyland expansion is?

You really thought it was going to be all fairies and princesses? Heck no fairy tales are dark, freaky and scary! Just like Walt's original cartoons.

BTW if you look at the haunted mansion in the artwork carefully you can see Hatbox Ghost standing inside. You can also see Oswald in the photo...

I can't find Hatbox Ghost, could you circle him on the picture or do a blurry closeup?
