Keeps him relevant yet recluse so his eventual return is all the more rousing for the fandom. à la Hat Box Ghost.
And we can’t forget they used him for the imagination projection show on SSE. I hadn’t considered this before but I think you’re onto something here. Between articles, light shows, and merch, they’re trying to keep him peripherally relevant. All of the truly extinct characters barely get a mention in extinct attraction pages on the disney blog, not even close to everything dreamfinder’s been getting lately.

Once Seth Rogen does his take on this character we’ll be pining for the Eric Idle days
My understanding is he’s simply producing it and not necessarily close in the creative aspect of it. My hope is they keep it all true to how the message & characters are presented in the original ride rather than not.
Another hope is that ‘maybe’ they might have the ride restored back to it’s former glory ‘before’ the movie is released, just to prove a point to upper management about park original IP being successful in it’s own right and how ‘that’ is a valid medium for true creativity without film IP having to be tied into it.

As I have said before... I expect it to be like every other single live-action movie with a CGI sidekick ever.

Touch and Taste Lab Figment seems to be moving more again

While yes, the animatronic is fixed now(albeit the left arm motion is busted again), you should never take the release date of a video as the date it was recorded, only trust live streams or videos where they mention when it was recorded. The video you posted was when Figment still had the sweater on.

I will be glad the day more Figment/JII news is released, so I will no longer have to see "that kid" plague the search results for the ride on YouTube with unrelated kid content.
