They want to make sure Grumpy does not have the same problem as the Yeti

Does anyone know what animatronics will be used in this attraction besides the dwarfs? Are they building new animatronics or are they just reconfiguring the ones they had in SWSA and just touching them up a bit to make em new?

I don't think they are using the same animatronics.... don't you think?

I don't know that's why I asked. My guess though is that like your thinking will be that they will make new ones for this ride.

 

[Jose]

I think that if they use the same animatronics that would be very ugly...

 

[Timothy_Q]

SWSA didn't have animatronics. At least not my idea of what an animatronic is. They were just moving figures.

 

[Jose]

Oh sorry, you're right

SWSA didn't have animatronics. At least not my idea of what an animatronic is. They were just moving figures.

And in most cases, they weren't even moving.

Do you think they will pick up the pace after the negative survey results mentioned in other threads?

We've got an updated look at the latest Seven Dwarfs Mine Train coaster construction in the Magic Kingdom's New Fantasyland. Work is continuing to move forward on the rockwork supports, and the building facades facing the Little Mermaid area. Head to the photos below for a full walk-around tour.

The new coaster is expected to open in Spring 2014 and will complete the New Fantasyland.

It's CRAZY how long this is taking. Seriously, Disney needs to take a leaf out of Universal's construction!

It took Eisenhower 4 years to get the interstate system built but its taken Disney 4 to build a coaster?

With further research I see that this statement is not entirely true. I will look stuff up before I make a joke next time

Partial truths can still be hilarious. I give you tremendous kudos for a high level of unnecessary honesty and mistake admission.
