Tributes to old attractions

[BayLake]

I can only remember 2 tributes to an attraction that takes the place or grounds of an old attraction.
1. Mr Toad handing the deed to Owl in Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
2. The carving of the Nautilus in the tree that was originally set on the grounds of 20,000 Leagues, but moved across the walkway.
I know there are more out there.

Since you mentioned Toad, his statue is in the graveyard at the exit to the Haunted Mansion. He's all the way in the back left corner.

I just watched a video about Discovery Island, and how Animal Kingdom basically became the new Discovery Island, when AK opened the area with the Tree of Life was called Safari Village, once Discovery Island closed the name in Animal Kingdom was changed to Discovery Island.

The chickens from Take Flight are in Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin.

And some of the animatronics and props from Snow White's Scary Adventures are in the 7 Dwarves Mine Train.

The 3 animatronics at the end of the boat ride in Mexico are from The Mickey Mouse Revue

There's a tribute to Maelstrom in the Frozen Ever After queue.

This is in Disneyland (I know, please don't shun me), but I've always been amused by the remnants of country bears in Winnie the Pooh.

There's a part in Ellen's Energy Adventure at Universe of Energy where an announcer says, "Energy, you make the world go round", which is a lyric from the original Universe of Energy attraction.

In Tomorrowland's area music, I've heard "The Best Time of Your Life" from an earlier version of Carousel of Progress, and also heard the theme from "If You Had Wings", the original attraction where Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin (and before that DreamFlight) is.

Most, if not every major song used in a Tomorrowland attraction pops up in the Tokyo version of that loop, including "Miracles from Molecules", "Seizing the Future" from Alien Encounter, and both of Bruce Broughton's excellent themes from Le Visionarium.

My personal favorite tribute is the squiddly weathervane atop the DVC kiosk where 20k used to be.
