EPCOT Figment, well, to be replaced by Figment

[Figments Friend]

So I just noticed this in the Imagination bathrooms. Is there a reason why they'd write "exit" in the ground in what looks like handwriting with a stick?

And just for funzies, taken right before close. Too bad they don't stay open later:

The 'exit' scrawl in the cement may be in the same spirit as the 'figment' written in cement pictured in your avatar that used to exist nearby.
Legend tells that Figment himself did this during a particularly mischievous moment while the Pavilion was being constructed.
Dreamfinder confirmed this some years ago.



Your upper level snapshot is terrific.
Made me smile to see that view again, and the lovely sunset!

So thank you for sharing this here.

Yes, it is indeed a shame they do not keep that area open in the evening.
The glass pyramid looks beautiful when viewed from inside with the colored lights, and the views to be seen are also nice to see at night time....Imagination fountains included!

I got an idea, lets make a new ride for figment, were we just ride thru the gift shop and automatically up-charge you at the end for a on ride photo-pass using automated cameras.

They really need to do something with this ride,I went on it yesterday and half of it was not even working.

What wasn’t working? There’s not much to it in the first place.

Off the top of my head, the first Figment AA's mouth doesn't move at all and the second ones mouth wasn't moving too well. At the end, I think the far left "computer" doesn't get to it's correct position prior to the explosion.

They did at least align the projectors since I was last there in the fall. One of the queue projectors actually looked brand new but it could've just been a bulb replacement.

Hey my man! I just read an article that was saying the Muppets may be coming to the Imagination pavilion, with figment being a creation from Muppets lab, as well as Muppet vision 3D moving to the theater in the pavilion. Any truth to that?

was on it yesterday... painful.. of course it's always painful knowing what it USED to be and now seeing my kids joke about Figment farting in your face... ugh.

You mean the article reporting on a thread from this very board that quickly derailed into crapflinging once the word Muppet was uttered?

Journey Into Imagination With Figment To Be Replaced With An Inside Out Attraction?

As what I’ve heard is that Disney might want to replace Journey Into Imagination With Figment with an Inside Out attraction. If this is true and it happens, I know many would be badly hurt by this, because this is the only attraction with Figment and some might be glad because it’s replacing...

Yup, they said it was from this site, but I didn’t see it anywhere...

Amazing that Orlando Weekly decided to use the supposed information from that thread about the Muppets and JIIwF as news.

I’m glad to hear that Marni hasn’t heard of it. Not that I have anything against the Muppets.

With the coronavirus creating a domino effect, I feel like all of the current plans for WDW are going to have major cutbacks...but since Figment isn’t planned for any changes for a few years from now, perhaps it has a better chance of getting the update it deserves.

The sound,it stopped a few times,the song barely worked it was a mess

Let’s be real it’ll probably end up being a Carousel.

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

With the lack of Fig merch for F&G looks like I'll be adding that onto my list for my trip in April

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.

Figment is all over the passholder merch

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