That's pretty accurate - Disney didn't need to top Spiderman or anything in Islands of Adventure - it didn't affect their attendance. They had a plan in place that included additions to every park, but it turned out to be unnecessary.
Q: How many Disney fans does it take to change a light bulb?
A: 10. 1 to change the lightbulb, and 9 to complain how great the old light bulb was.

And I was bitter when he wasn't on time nearly a year ago, you get used too it. Few weeks is nothing in the grand time they've been working on him, trust me.
:dazzle:
Sorry, I'm busy writing this week so I'm a little hurried in the non-creative stuff.

They are actually. Audio Animatronics running nearly 24 hours a day completely exposed to extreme sunlight, heat, cold, rain, and winds. That would have been unthinkable just a few years ago. Not to mention the minimal support and wiring they have, just look at how they operate on a tiny buoy in the middle of Lagoon, no wires or computers to be seen.
Like I said, simple is often quite complicated.

I see what you mean, but I still don't think they're much more advanced than say, the tiki birds, except they're made to be used outside in the elements.

So, I am guessing the wires go through the feet?

But what about the Stitch haters and Marvel fanboys to complain why their character(s) isn't on the light bulb to begin with? :lookaroun

If anything Luxo should be paying them, for giving people only one good reason for wanting to buy one.
