The newport beach boat parade unit shows an actual sized drum that blows the last one we saw out of the water, the commercial does not show tinker bell unit but was awesome to see them show all those old artifacts. All I know is if this parade is getting the upgrade I think it could get and its only running until spring at Disneyland we could be in for a real treat at the Magic Kingdom.

Who said the parade was being upgraded? The parade is being repaired before it's return to Disneyland this January. It's not being updated for it's short run at Disneyland. It's being used as a placeholder for Paint The Night.

Some of the floats were given a minor makeover though after seeing the photos of the spinning turtle an Elliot.

Actually, a few of the floats are being upgraded. So far we've seen the new Turtle and the new Elliot floats.

It's the same Elliot but his head got a makeover and the lamp is different (Notable in the commercial)
Whew! Thank you! The original Pete's Dragon is still one of my all time favorite Disney movies..and has always been a favorite part of the EWP and MSEP for me. I can handle the movie being remade (more accurately I learned to accept it ;) ), but I couldn't handle the original Elliot leaving the parks.

I also like the new look for the spinning Turtle with the hat.

As we thought it was on death row they revived it again, if this parade really ends in the spring you know what that means!!!!!!, I hope there are some audio changes and hope to god the blue fairy returns and is as cool as the one in tokyo. And just in case no one has noticed the drum once again says Main Street Electrical Parade
