Moana, Mirabel and Figment m&g announced

Announced to media today.

To my mind it speaks volumes that Moana has to meet at AK when if they’d got their finger out they could have had her meeting in her own area in Epcot. :woman_facepalming:t4:

Yeah that makes no sense, unless that’s THE AK update for the 25th anniversary.

I think it has to be. Makes no sense, especially since they’re saying late Fall for the Moana walk-through thing at Epcot. Why not just wait?

Figment!! :star_struck::star_struck::star_struck::star_struck::star_struck:

What form do you think this will take?? Animatronic style, like with Dreamfinders Ghost back in the day, or will he be a big huggable dragon??

That’s already the subject of debate over on WDWMagic. The term Figzilla is being bandied about. Pretty sure the article says you can hug him, so I’m guessing life size.

Honestly, either way sounds great to me.
I LOVE figment.
Let’s just hope that his likeness is checked over thoroughly before launch - We don’t want pictures of children hugging giant figment magic bands!! :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Me too! I definitely scanned the article hoping to see his name. He should totally have a m&g in Japan.

So no Mickey until Communicore opens? When is this slated to open?

It looks like the MK Mirabel meet and greet is a step closer. It’s too bad it’s at the expense of Merida’s spot. I don’t know what will happen to Merida.

That sucks! I love Mirabel and Encanto, but I love Merida as much, if not more.

There was a rumour floating around that they could move to the Christopher Robin bedroom at Epcot. It’s a real shame that closed and you can’t even see into it anymore - don’t ask how long I spent trying to find the window on our last trip. :slightly_frowning_face:

I don’t think it’s a particularly “validated” rumour though, for want of a better word.
