Are the Body Wars simulators still there in WoL?

I thought I had heard or at least understood that the "partial demolition" was more removal of Cranium Command parts and components?

It is a great shame the way this pavilions went. Who knows? Maybe there have been revamp plans for some time...just a lack of sponsor...which, as the world's largest media company, you'd figure they could hash something out...I mean, a new WOL would cost perhaps a heck of a lot less than New Fantasyland and Pandora.

Just sayin'...

No, the partial demolition definitely wasn't on Cranium Command. I was in CC 3 weeks ago and every thing is still there, including Buzzy, someone recently posted a pic of him on instagram, i cant seem to find it. But they fixed his lazy eye.

where is that picture taken from? and what am i looking at in that photo?
You're looking into a simulator bay from load/unload level. I'm guessing through the safety hatch at the control console that was left of load. The rectangles opposite are the unload doors, minus the drawbridge.
 
So I was just in the Wonders of Life for the F&W goings on and I looked around and it is small but the one thing that leads me to believe this building has no plans to be used for much in the future is that they haven't upgraded the bathrooms to the more sanitary standards. No auto flush, there is still a handle up on the wall you push. And that I remember, no auto faucets.

Again a small sign, but still a sign that they don't immediately plan to use this building for high volume anytime soon.

The excuse that Epcot is in shambles because Disney is having trouble finding sponsors for the pavilions enrages me to no end. I know the park opened using the concept of an evolving World's Fair with sponsorships used to help subsidize the huge price tag of building the park but that was in the early 80's when Disney was a drastically different type of company. The Walt Disney Company is now an enormous media conglomerate with profits exceeding some of the very companies that used to sponsor the attractions in the first place. It's just completely outrageous that rides are shuttered and/or left to rot away and become dated because poor little Disney can't find someone to foot the bill. You run a theme park. People pay money to enter your theme park. Guests aren't paying a discounted rate to enter a subsidized Convention Center run by different companies. PBS requires sponsors to give free programming to the masses. A premium cable channel like HBO doesn't cancel a show because they can't convince Sunkist to sponsor an extra season of True Blood.

That would be one of the courses at the Aperture Science Enrichment Center. You need to find a way to open that upper door in order to obtain the Companion cube.

I reckon you meant this one?

:lol: Yep. That's the state he's in.
I am so glad they chose to fix up and restore poor Buzzy. We imagined the worst happening to him, but try comparing the recent shot with this one. Any differences?

I have a feeling that Buzzy and the Hypothalamus are not speaking again.
