Whoever decided on that deserves to be put through Dr. Channing's imagination scanner and laughed at for their poor results.

This person only tried once. From the website that shall not be named, a demonstration back in May shown that each statue has a few different interactions(The Figment statue wasn't enabled yet when they were doing these). Some may play music for one interaction but a voice clip for the next interaction.

I have seen two versions so far of the Rocket statue..One plays a dynamic score and the other one on the video sounding like a Jackson Five medley. I still think we're not going to expect anything except music..

There has to have been a pilot filmed for this..Figment looked more like a character done by the the same studio who did Pooh Corner and Dumbo's Circus.

SO. FRIGGIN’. AWESOME!!! I’d heard about this show for years and knew some details, but I never knew how elaborate & big budget this project was supposed to be. Amazing! ‘Really’ wish this would’ve made it to full production.

They could do the show now for Disney+
They have to add something to the service besides more Star Wars and Marvel stuff.

Blink, blink. Breathe, breathe. Day in, day out.
Speaking of Marvel, they could turn the Figment marvel comic books into a series.

I am sure someone with connections to the character or show has a copy of the pilot episode.
Willing to bet money on that.
It will surface eventually, wait n' see.

Someone give a Disney exec a copy of the comic run. Before you know it, after they see the Marvel logo, Dreamfinder will be back in the pavilion.

Iger knew of the comic's existence and success (and was surprised that it did well)...it didn't change anything, unfortunately.
Interesting point about Marvel and Figment, though - Kevin Feige is a fan of our beloved purple dragon. I can't remember where I saw it from, but I saw him talk about Figment in a featurette and the excitement and joy on his face was truly delightful and earnest. I wonder if he's thought about doing more with him in the MCU past his inclusion in Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission Breakout, though he probably recognizes that it's a tall order to truly get right.
If I can be completely honest, while there were lots of things that I liked about the comic, I would not want to see a new attraction solely based off of it. A few bits to inspire and add in a few nods? Sure.

There's a few Figment fans at PIXAR too, aren't there?

It's possible since they slipped in Figment cameos in two Pixar Films (Inside Out as a portrait, and featured on a carnival logo in Toy Story 4).

Plus the mascot of Ian's school in Onward looked like Figment.

Bold prediction: A D23 *teaser* announcement of a Dreamfinder revamp. Kinda like the initial Splash announcement….a “it’s coming, but we have this one generic picture to show”.
My gut could totally be wrong, but I have a feeling this might just be the year. What else do they have to announce for this park of genuine substance? Not much.

You an many others over the last two decades.
Sorry for being blunt, but at this point I won't believe it until actual construction happens. This thread alone is now over three years old and I remember it being the *new* figment thread.

They haven't even gotten around to talking about the postponed SSE refurb and there's a pile of dirt in the middle of the park that needs finished.
If anything, it'd be some minor project they could get wrapped up quickly (one year) to show the park is still "evolving". Something like a light refurb of the Seas and return of the exit Hydrolators (that was pegged for the 50th).
