The thing is, people knew Lucky was a robot. However, Mickey is Mickey. Those specific heads can not be used on sets due to the noises that they make.
Chip, Dale and Pluto will most definitely be..."saying a lot" this winter during the Christmas Castle Show "Celebrate The Season" if you catch my drift...
Unfortunately for me, since my parents never gave me the chance to see Dream Alonge with Mickey, I dunno what the technology looks like. But it sounds pretty cool, though.
Just because tech. is already there doesn't mean it’s an easy job. If they are planning on making Timon "talk" in FOLK they will most likely start at scratch. They would first have to look at the current design of Timon's head to decide if it can accommodate the new head tech. If not, they would have to redesign him. This mean they have to look for new materials etc.. After that it would have to be tested and approved for the theme parks. Currently this would be inconvenient as they are busy working on the new Chip and Dale heads. It would defiantly not be on the top of their list of important developments since they are working very hard so that all of these moveable heads will be able to premiere in the Holiday parades and shows. Not to mention their further plans for the heads starting early next year. Also lets not forget budgets! I’m sure in time we will see Timon 2.0 but in my opinion most likely not until summer next year at the earliest.
They will be used in more than just the Holiday partys!
