no fish, no teacups.... and there are only a few pieces of spectro left, which will be destroyed shortly

 

[asianway]

If thery are, that would be VERY interesting because I thought that everything in Spectro was destroyed., or is it? What else does MK have that we don't know about???

The Bacchus piece of the Fantasia float was saved-it was at the wine & dine half

Funny you said that. I've been told that the Sebastian animatronic from Spectro will be appearing on the Ariel float in FOF. In regards to the smaller units, the Crocodile from the Enchanted Adventures Parade will follow the Peter Pan float. Also the Tweedles will show up in the tea cups from Parade of Dreams, and the Three Good Fairies float down the route like they do in Disney Magic on Parade (youtube it, it's pretty cool). Again, this is just what I've been told, but it sounds pretty great.

This is from POD at DL

Enchanted Adventures - Also see in Boo to You Parade

Fairies floating -

DHS needs a daytime or better yet nighttime Villians parade - how cool would that be

That's a great idea, only I doubt another parade would happen until the suits figure out exactly what is going on with the park (refurb/expansion wise). But RE: FOF, the parade is gonna look great! Gonna really put MIckey's jamin jungle parade to shame, while its still around

NO WAY!!!!! GET THE TEACUPS?!

Also, I hope this will make the return of the Blue Fairy!

I'm hearing no blue fairy.

Almost all of spectro was destroyed.. as a matter of fact ALL of the large units were destroyed... keep in mind that the fish from spectro were newer units (when ariel joined spectro) and were mostly wire and metal structured..... hence, termite 'proofer'

Again, I don't know that these units are from spectro, but they look a lot like them

Wait so there wont be fish or teacups in FOF?? Im confused.

 

[Neverland]

They had two Spectro fish at a Little Mermaid-themed MK Cast event a while back, but unfortunately I can't remember when exactly that was. I think about a year ago, give or take maybe 2 months.

One of the supposed issues with the parade at DHS is that the current parade storage facility might get demolished with a large scale Star Wars expansion. So new ones would need to be built in that situation.

Also, it's possible that Star Wars construction would impact a potential parade route.

since HIH just released its show stop version as of today.maybe we could see some show stop in Festival Of Fantasy parade.

Sadly there isn't going to be a show stop for FOF. Although just like HIH that could always change down the road but I wouldn't hold my breath. WDW entertainment does not seem to be a fan of show stops!

 

[Figments Friend]

Yeah, the show stops went away some time ago for several reasons.

A shame, but times change.

 

[StringBeanDream]

The only concern I am seeing is that this parade doesn't truly have a "theme" or "style". The floats range from a Steampunk Dragon (Which is sweet) to a bagpipe and a viking ship. I think all of the floats look great I just don't see a theme here. It just seems like a bunch of cool floats with no cohesive style. Maybe with the music and dancers my opinion will be changed. Time will tell

How could the Fish be newer???? Ariel was in Spectro when it opened in 1991!!!

 

[TTA94]

Would be cool if the opening performers were like the ones in Flights of Fantasy, and with the flags Very fun and colorful!

Btw how come the rainbow in Peter Pan doesn't really look like a rainbow and more like a red arch? lol

They weren't. All the floats in Spectro were 1991 originals, some were just upgraded when the parade began its second run in 2001
