OK, I know you'd laugh if I made this up, but sadly...I didn't!

I just got back from Epcot (Sorry, no Update. It was a really short visit, and the weather was very bleak. Didn't even bring the camera in.)

As expected, nothing interesting going on to report on. Save for this...As I'm walking up the ramps inside Mexico to leave after riding Gran Fiesta Tour, a member of my party stops to look back and says "How long has THAT been there?" To which I look back and see this hidden in a corner...

An actual, factual TIKI Bird! Yea, I know! It's a fully working AA Tiki Bird, just like the ones you've seen hanging out in the rafters of the Tiki Room for fourty-some years. It moved, blinked, and even said "Hello" in Parrot-voice.


So what the heck? Did they just have one laying around?

What's the deal with that, and is it not the most random news you've heard?
:lol:

Think about it....in the coming months, why would you need a talking bird in World Showcase hidden in a corner?

I'm not really sure what the joke is. But a few weeks ago when I was there with my friends (all four of us are fanatics) we saw the same thing, and all stopped as well. We didn't stop long enough to hear it speak.
Interestingly enough we had been there the end of May and didn't notice it, but noticed it when we were there the first week of June. So maybe that could narrow it down to a time frame for appearance?

Maybe you imagined it say "Hello" It doesn't speak until it is triggered by a game phone.

Also, did you see the 5 other items in there that were related to KP?

The mystery finally solved!!!

But I cant decide if that thing there looks cool or creepy. If it is for the kim possible game nice to see them tailoring it to the actual country or pavilion.
