Interactive things around the parks you never noticed

[WondersOfLife]

I shouldn't have put "Interactive" in the title. whoops

Sooo I'm just googling around the internet and I just found out that this exists in tomorrowland..



A "Galactic Communication Network phone"

Has anyone else noticed this before? After all the years Ive been here, I've never known this was there! Also, are there any other hidden things to look for around the parks?

EDIT: This is probably a more common one.. But I also didn't know that the
airplane in the Casablanca scene in “The Great Movie Ride” is actually the front half of the crashed airplane on the “Jungle Cruise” ride..

The Newspaper Bot (With upside down Kermit Eyes) also Speaks. He's right next to the TTA Entrance. He asks if you want a paper and he's got the most up to date news from Tomorrowland news network. It's a prerecorded spiel and really hard to hear due to the volume being down..

And then there's the Rope pulling gag outside of Indy Stunt Show..

I always saw the newspaper bot, but I've never heard him talk .-.

Didn't know about the rope!

Excluding Perry and the Pirates game, I'd say my favorite (right now) is the Singing in the Rain umbrella at DHS that provides it's own rainfall when you stand under it.

The buttons and switches inside the capsule at Mission Space control lights and noises.

The "party line" phone in the Chapeau hat shop in the MK is pretty well known.

If you go to Muppetvision and take a right by the entrance you can take a stroll through the extended queue area where there are TONS of gags, Muppet Movie Posters, and a Few Experiments from Muppetlabs

But, my favorite one is the Nod to Sesame Street's Ernie & Bert...While you can see this in the extended queue area. The best place to get a straight shot is as you exit the Muppet theater make a right and go pass the cars meet & greet you will then see the extended queue..look high above and there you will see Ernie & Bert..

I've always wanted to go in the extended queue! It seems like a perfect attraction for Disney to do their "interactive queues".. But I guess it's not popular enough to incorporate that in. .-.

My daughter loved the rope gag outside of Indy's show.

" Haunted Mansion Secret
While the Haunted Mansion was being designed, as a joke, one of the designers topped the model of the Haunted Mansion with chess pieces, to see if anyone noticed. When the joke was discovered, Walt decided to keep the joke going and told the designers, keep the chess pieces on the mansion.
Next time you approach the Haunted Mansion, look at the many spires. Each one is shaped like a chess piece."

Are you sure? I can see a few .-.

They're just ornamentation that some piece think look like some chess pieces. I'd be more interested to know who was holding the seance that channeled Walt.

2 favorite hidden things are in Backlot Express. One is this little flyer from 1988 in one of the displays at for Six Flags Magic Mountain and it's newest coaster at the time The Ninja from 1988. One year prior to the Opening of Disney*MGM.

The Second one is the Staring Nun..The effect is similar to the staring busts in the Library at HM..Go through the sliding door in the Plaster room and look up to your right side She will be looking for you as you come in.

And following you as you head towards the counter..

As you go through Tomorrowland and see the stage. Sit and watch the advertisements that play (when they aren't having the dance parties). If your there long enough you will see an advertisement for Robo-Mart. You will see many of WDW's Robot's of the past..

It explains that if your old robot is rusty and falling to pieces to bring it in and get a new Robot...Well no sooner after they show a wrecked toonish robot...
The First New Robot Pops up...S.I.R. of Alien Encounter

Another Wrecked Robot Pops up and another Comes up..TimeKeeper

Same Thing again and a new Bot Pops Up...Nine Eye!

And One more litte Hurrah to Epcot Innoventions Tom Morrow 2.0!
