DAK 'Encanto' and 'Indiana Jones'-themed experiences at Animal Kingdom

[ToTBellHop]

I worked for Hallmark. Those cute little seasonal stuffies that you get a discount on if you buy multiple cards all go in the incinerator at the end.

It bothered me so much I bought one of each to "save" them.

These idiots should donate them to children’s hospitals or soup kitchens. Someone, somewhere needs a stuffed friend.

Morons will be playing “Do They Know It’s Christmas” in the store and burning toys.

That's truly pathetic but not surprising. Shame they don't get a shot at life as a donated item.

Yeah, "You mean you don't donate them?" was my response, too.


I know Disney has a cast store or something, so I don't think it's routine for them, but with the circumstances I'm just hoping they make whatever they have left tomorrow easier to get.

Just have Dino-Donald and the Chipmunks stand outside with one of these signs. They'll be gone in minutes.

Cementosauruses are gone!

Only Comet Crasher and BrontoScore have the remaining igaunadons!

Look at those igaunadons barely visible peeking out of the container.

Spoiler: Cuuuuuute

I understand the logic of the game of skill having a longer line than the game of luck...but just from experience I pity everyone in the BrontoScore line more than the Comet Crasher one. Edit: BrontoScore also has less people playing at once, that contributes to the longer line.

(Note moving them all to the single player games so there isn't a guaranteed winner.)

 

[WorldExplorer]

BrontoScore is now the only game with igaunadons (so, any dinosaurs).

It looks like they're down to three. Edit: Two. Edit: One!

Edit: Igaunadons are now igauna-gone.

Let the record show that there were about twenty minutes between edits, so at a pace of about one game every two minutes and four players per game, Disney made 240 dollars off that igaunadon alone.

just think Dino land USA will be as it was in 1998-2001

854 days between the initial blue sky ideas for DinoLand and the first closures.

854 days from the first walls going up would be at the very beginning of summer 2027.

Interesting to think about.

So do the Encanto Walls go up tomorrow?

So do the Encanto Walls go up tomorrow?

There will be a ritual killing of an abuelo tonight so than an abuela can summon some generational trauma mountains to conceal the work site.

So do the Encanto Walls go up tomorrow?

Last day of operations for the spinner, carnival area, and gift shop is Sunday January 12, 2025. So walls go up overnight on Monday January 13.

Tomorrow night after park close

It really does blow my mind that real animals were an afterthought for this land, given its biodiversity. Almost like they were caught off-guard that people would ask about it.

Probably because Disney's only doing this because they want to sell more Encanto merchandise, not because they want to add something to Animal Kingdom that actually fits the park. Plus, getting live animals is likely too expensive for Iger's Disney.

The south lands of the park were never intended to offer any significant live animal habitats. The park was always designed and intended to have the major animal attractions in the north.

I've been here for roughly an hour and a half and I've seen seventeen people with some visible marker of being a Dinoland fan, not counting myself. That's not counting anything seen or heard over the past few months (and there has been plenty seen and heard over the last few months).

And all I'm saying is would it have killed Disney to make a Dinoland cupcake or a single shirt?

Edit: A pin? Even Kali River Rapids has a pin, maybe Dinosaur could get one?

The tiny Chester and Hester's (or, at least a similar shop) along the train route.

You mean like the Water Buffalo or the Painted Dogs or the Nigerian Dwarf Goats?

Sure. Not under Iger's watch.

Here for the big farewell today and it’s fun seeing all the energy in the area somebody already offered to buy my Dino plushies off me haha

 

[EagleScout610]

I wonder if we'll see a swarm of people fight for DINOSAUR tonight only to realize it'll be operating tommorow.
