Rumor Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

To be fair, that on demand stuff doesn't really cost much to create a new design that lives in a computer until you buy it

I don't believe there is usually much Figment merch for F&G. It's been Spike and Orange Bird for a while, Figment for Art, and I think Mickey+the usuals for F&W.With the lack of Fig merch for F&G looks like I'll be adding that onto my list for my trip in April

Figment has been used a lot for passholder merch at most of the festivals

Oh you're right but the Arts festival has him plastered over everything while the other ones are more limited.
Personay, most AP merch isn't too great so it's easy to overlook it.

Yeah I know he's all over the AP merch but even for F&G in the past, it's been more than 5 things including non AP stuff (shirts, mugs, water bottles, garden statues, ornaments etc) but can understand them phasing him out for F&G and into arts, he definitely fits there more, and Spike and Orange Bird fit F&G better. Thankfully I am an AP so I should be able to get a shirt, keychain & mug when I get back down there (I anticipate the pin will be out by the time I get there, if it isn't already). At least my wallet will thank me this festival and I can save it for F&W (or IFOTA next year)

TBH, I would have sooooo much respect for Disney if Figment and the Dreamfinder narrated Spaceship Earth: Our Shared Story.

It would be awesome but I can’t see that ever happening.

TBH I wouldn't want that. SSE is at it's best when it's fully 100% about reality. Any IP park original or otherwise would kinda ruin that (outside the theater scene).

Gut out the whole building and start from scratch is what I say.

I'm surprised they haven't moved the DVC lounge to the Land's VIP lounge...if it were to "mysterously" happen to move for reasons. It would give us our first indication something was happening...

Either that, or just continue to leave the second floor of Imageworks a lounge. Lol. But in all seriousness, the elevator in the Land Pavilion Is getting updated, so maybe they are making itmore modern for future guests to visit the top floor (?)
I doubt they’re connected, but it would be cool if they were

It's not like it'd be hard to make a new DVC lounge either. Get some furniture with USB ports, some computers for people to do stuff on, a TV for kids, and two Coke Freestyle machines. Done.
Hardest part would (probably) be changing up access and area limits for the public.
I'd welcome it for sure. It's not like the Imagination lounge is open late enough to enjoy a night view of the park. Heck, the day view is not too great right now due to construction.

Hot take incoming:
I'd be fine with the demolition of the entire building idea....as long as they keep the current pyramid shape somewhere and the replacement was worth the new building.
Now time to hide in a corner somewhere

Here's the thing, we'll get a box with a pyramid on top and that's it.Hot take incoming:

Compare M:S to Horizons. While Horizons may not be impressive to everyone, it was a unique building that could be viewed from any angle and you'd still know what it was. M:S is literally a warehouse with a pretty front stuck on it, that can be seen past while on the monorail. Then there's the Guardians box, Tron box, the spires of SWGE (minor), and back of Pandora (slightly more minor) from just the past few years. I really don't have faith that modern day WDI would get the budget to properly design something that would be viewed from the front (from FW) and the back (WS).
