I can say I really like the mural painting used as the backdrop for the new temporary location.

The current area is awfully small. But I thought some of the rumors indicated them expanding the area in use for the Character Spot.

I think that carpet has been there about at least 10 years. It is going to have a bit of a funk. I think it was there from the last restaurant refurb back when it was a pasta place.

Figures - I just pre-ordered my Photopass Plus last night in advance of our trip November 9-17.
Character Spot is always good for a couple of dozen great Photopass pics.

I am not seeing the Disney Photopass photographers in the pics posted from the amazing folks at WDWMagic. Are they still there?

I'm very impressed with that art they have behind the characters. Finally something aesthetically pleasing, and not cheap, random, non Disney characters and unappealing art. The perfect thing to do now is to copy that art to the old location, and give the characters futuristic costumes. The imperfect and stupid thing to do is add fastpass. I hope the old hallway becomes quiet once again after the new spot opens, and please, add more seating, people are sitting on window ledges because of the lack of seating.

Here are some pictures from tonight (including a look at the new FP+ podium at Turtle Talk)

Be still my beating heart! The new mural is fantastic. Here's hoping that the newly refreshed permanent spot embraces a similar look.

That's a much better backdrop than the cartoony one from the old Spot. Hope they keep it classy like that in the refurb.

i love mission space and think it represents a piece of future....and past all in one....im upset so many people bash it because it makes them sick and what not....
Its a crappy attraction in every way and if it represents anything its what happened when TDO tried to make Epcot relevant with cheap thrill rides that leave absolutely no impact on you and you walk off saying meh. That's Future World nowadays for you nothing but meh.
