so that cyberstrike outage apparently not only temporarily took out the Journey Into Imagination with Figment ride and ImageWorks...

...BUT IT ALSO REVEALED THAT IT'S STILL RUNNING ON FUCKING WINDOWS 98.

DISNEY I AM BEGGING YALL TO GIVE THIS RIDE A REVAMP. AN ACTUALLY GOOD REVAMP. PREFERRABLY A REMAKE OF THE ORIGINAL WITH UPDATED IMAGINEERING.

Me at Epcot: okay honey, see that gold dome over there? That used to be a really cool pavilion where you could learn all kinds of interesting things about the human body. You could ride a fun ride or see a show with a cute little guy named Buzzy! But they got rid of all of it. Nobody will ever go in there again. Isn't that sad?

My kid: Mommy can we go meet Anna and Elsa?

Me: No.

Welcome to EPCOT.

What if the imagination pavilion was 80s fashion? I hear you all not asking and I’m here with the answer

list of references under the cut

her bow is the butterfly from magic journeys

she shares the same hair color as dreamfinder

her earrings are the captain eo logo

her shoulder puffs are the pyramids from the pavilion, planters and all

her bodice features the upside down waterfall

the body of her dress is the rainbow tunnel

the decal on her skirt is the pavilion logo

her tiered skirt is the same colors as the bottom of the pavilion is currently painted

and of course. figment shoes

🎶 From head to tail, he's royal purple pigment, and there, voila! You've got a Figment! 🎶

Found this old WIP from 2020 and decided to post it! Figment is in my top Disney characters of all time. I love him so much (along with Dreamfinder RIP) 💜💛🌈

Here's a little something eclectic: some obscure and less popular Disney characters. How many can you recognize?

Horace Horsecollar, specifically his incarnation from the never-made TV series Maximum Horsepower. This series was proposed in the 90s for the Disney Afternoon, but was never greenlit. It's too bad; I think it would have been a really fun series. Here's the original pitch reel by Tad Stones (creator of Darkwing Duck).

Gopher, from Winnie the Pooh. Prior to his cameo in 2023's Once Upon a Studio, Gopher's last animated appearance was in 2005 in Pooh's Heffalump Halloween Movie (and even then, it was only archive footage from 1996's Boo to You Too!). Gopher's only other appearances were in the Kingdom Hearts games. I'm not sure why Disney used him less and less, but it's nice to see he wasn't entirely forgotten.

Stinky Pete (The Prospector) from Toy Story 2. Pete was never exactly my favorite character as a kid, but some time ago I heard that there was an old character interview where Pete claims that he's happy with his new owner Amy, and really enjoys her decorating his face. I think it's the most adorable thing ever and I'm glad I finally got around to drawing it. (I've tried to find this interview, and I could have sworn I saw it years and years ago, but the only one I can find is this one where he's his child-hating self from the movie.)

Gurgi, from The Black Cauldron. I loved him as a kid, and that feeling never went away as I grew up. He is a brave and loyal friend and deserves all the munchies and crunchies in the world.

Buzzy, from the former EPCOT attraction Cranium Command. I unfortunately never got to experience this attraction (or even EPCOT in its prime). The attraction closed in 2007, and sat abandoned for years. The animatronic of Buzzy was reported missing in 2018, with little explanation of what happened to him. Here's a couple of fun videos on the subject. #JusticeForBuzzy

Terry and Keiko (the video chat friends) from the 1994 Jeremy Irons iteration of Spaceship Earth in EPCOT. I don't expect many people to recognize these characters, as they were removed in 2007. They weren't even moving animatronics, just still figures. But I think their friendship is super adorable, and it's neat to imagine technology that can instantly and accurately translate your dialogue into a foreign language. You can see Terry and Keiko here (at 12:23).
