Figment's been dead for 20 years now (19 if you count Figment's came in Journey Into Your Imagination).

Hope they don’t remove the two meet and greets there. They are fantastic.
So will they be meeting in two places? Confusing.

Maybe not exactly dead, but dying at a painful rate.

That Figment is soulless compared to the classic Figment both in the attractions and even animated edutainment films between 1988 and 1989.No hes used all the time for selling merchandise and as the mascot for whayever festival is happening
At least "Classic Figment" lives on in the Marvel Figment comics.

I was confused by that too. I think the meet and greet is gonna be in the area with Baymax/Joy. And then a game or interactive thing will go in Imageworks.
So, the characters as people you can physically meet in one place and a game with the characters in another and a terrible playground themed to the characters in another.

It's sadder that even Ron himself feels the same way and is for Inside Out moving in and taking over (as he's stated in interviews).

I have a perfect idea that needs to become a thing on this site. There are only two Figments that currently exists.
"Classic Figment" (1983 - 1998/1999) that had the wondrous, childish nature and curiosity.
This Figment lives on in the Marvel Dreamfinder comics.
"Figment 2.0/Modern Figment" (2002-) this Figment loves teaching about Imagination to the point of annoying the current host, makes annoying jokes, and infamously becoming a skunk.

Figment was a wonderful creation of the Dreamfinder from his Imagination.I have a perfect idea that needs to become a thing on this site. There are only two Figments that currently exists.

Now?...Figment is that annoying substitute teacher that is trying to explain "Imagination" but used the wrong teaching materials and is instead explaining the 5 senses.

Is Epcot about to get a big Wreck-it-Ralph makeover? I mean, we got the playground, fixing to have a M&G and what not...

Confirms "I'm gonna wreck it!" is the theme of the Epcot overhaul.

I wouldn't mind inside out tbh. Makes a lot of sense for the imagination pavilion. I mean even figment is in it, it could work.
WIR though, I want somewhere else in epcot, maybe replacing innoventions or some other building, not imagination.

And his house is apparently upside down.
I prefer his home briefly seen in the "Language Arts Through Imagination" (Made between 1988 and 1989) it's more charming and relaxing.

To be fair, he just created upside down house in the modern figment verse, so that's like his second/vacation home. House 1 still exists somewhere.And his house is apparently upside down.

Also somewhat unrelated, but my headcanon has always been there's two figments and two dreamfinders. Figment A being classic figment from the 80's, Figment B being modern figment with his dreamfinder being Nigel.

Reminds me of a sub we had at my school a long time ago. But he also used to ask the pretty girls in the classroom to reach into his pocket for candy...
But the way you describe it hits it on the head. So much is wrong with the building that you really can't make it much worse then it already is. The best part of the ride is the upside down house and the part after the uneeded jump scare. I got stuck there for a good minute or so and it made the ride worth it. Got a rushed but great panorama as well: https://photos.google.com/share/AF1...?key=X2p2dzhZUTFvVjZIaV9oRHlIVElzOS1aOFRMNl9B

No idea. No one with a brain went for it and he was "always joking". This was about 10 years ago.Please tell me he no longer works there, or any school for that matter.
