Lucky the Dinosaur

[Fable McCloud]

I was watching some of the Modern Marvels Documentary on Youtube, and I caught footage of both Lucky the Dinosaur and the AA of Wall-E. Anyone know if either is currently residing anywhere in WDW, and if so, for how long? I would love for my BF to see Wall-E or Lucky! They're so cute!

Neither is currently in WDW. Wall-E never made it out of testing I think except for some red carpet appearances tied into the movie release. Lucky had been in AK for a period of time before going elsewhere, but I believe he currently resides at WDI in Glendale where he makes guest appearances during some tours and such.

That's so sad! It's such a nifty idea, and I know it's expensive to keep something like that moving, but how cool is he!

I hope they plan on doing more with him in the future, it would make for very interesting interactions with guests, especially the little ones who don't realize it's not real.

I thought Lucky went to HKDL?

If I remember correctly, the problem with Wall-E was his size. They were afraid that with the way he rolled and his weight that it could have potential for crushing little feet. Don't remember where I heard this, but I know it was a while ago when the AA was first created.

I also thought Lucky was in HKDL.

He was for a short time. Lucky was a prototype and like most prototypes he was riddled with technical issues that made daily show appearances quite problematic.

I think the Wall-e running people over was a rumor around these parts. I think he was just to hard to keep up and too expensive. :shrug:

Muppet Mobile Lab did. I happened to be there when it was out on Main Street. Awfully funny to hear Bunsen and Beaker speaking Chinese.

That would annoy me. I would need to make sure I had my starfleet issue universal translator with me at all times. :lookaroun
