A New MK Land?

[Goofy45]

I always get the Mickey Monitor and on this issue that I got a couple of days ago, it said something about the Tinkerbell series. And that there will also be Tinkerbell meet and greets at MK. I thought that would be nice. But, I also read that we'll be able to meet her in the land of Pixie Hallows, coming soon to Magic Kingdom. A new land maybe? Does anyone else know about this? Do you think MK should get another land?

Here is an excerpt......
Blue Sky Buzz (Orlando): It's Just A Fantasy...


.........
Imagine that Little Mermaid attraction we talked about before... it's basically going to be the ride we have here, although it might be a bit smaller and the exterior should be envisioned differently, but all around Fantasyland you'll notice a great deal of detail and a great deal of difference in a bout four or five years if it all comes to pass.

How would you like to get through with your adventures with Ariel and Sebastian and walk out looking around the Florida sunshine basking in that new roller coaster that's been put in for Disney Fans/Geeks to ride. A roller coaster? What are you talking about? The one themed to the Seven Dwarfs, that one. Lavishly made up with details that are closer to something you'd see in Tokyo that stateside, but it's there...

Now what about the other areas of the land that are proposed to have a radical makeover? I mean, there is that Pixie Hallow that looks like you've wandered into the forest in Neverland, there's a meet and greet for Tinkerbell, but the details of this little area are going to make little princess run screaming through this area and really bring a smile on the face of every Disney fan.

There's a new area for a meet-and-greet with the Princess that's quite nice as well.

Oh and remember I talked a while back about there being very few attractions based on the Animated films of the Second Golden Age? I specifically talked about none for my favorite Disney animated film... well, if this comes to pass that will no longer be true. That's right, there is a very nice "Beauty and the Beast" attraction planned for this area as well. I only hope that take some of the great ideas that were proposed for the "B and B" attraction that was to be built in Paris over a decade or so ago...............

The meet n greets are going to be in the judges tent in toontown. we have that on good authority currently...

So...for the time being Tink will be in Toon Town Fair, but sometime during the next year or so Tink will get her own meeting area like Ariel, Mickey(his house), and Caspian (to a degree). And the Princesses FINALLY will get their own meet and great area. (since the moniter confirmed PH I would assume that this would be conformation for this area as well)

That's what I'm gathering from bly sky and the monitor. Hopefully this mean that some of the plans Blue Sky memntioned will happen besides TLM ride since everyone knows we are getting that 2011-2013 (the time DCA gets theirs).

Maybe they are finally going to do something with the 20,000 Leagues lagoon.

They put Pooh's Playful Spot there. It's just like a little play area for kids. And, where would they put her meet and greet spot?

After filling in the 20K Lagoon Pooh's Playful Spot was built on a very small area of the land that once was the 20K Lagoon. There is enough land behind Pooh's Playful Spot to hold a dark ride, An E-Ticket ride & still have room for Pooh's Playful Spot,I feel the Pooh area was built not just to entertain the little ones but with a hidden agenda.

What agenda you ask?
Why to hold the area for future attractions!

What attractions you ask?

Blue Sky has some rumors out about new attractions for Fantasyland in WDW.
The rumors include a Little Mermaid Ride, A Seven Dwarfs coaster, A Beauty and Best Dark Ride,
and a "Pixie Hallow" meet & Greet for Tink.

From what I heard from some pretty good sources the Little Mermaid is very probable.
I think the Seven Dwarfs coaster makes sense because of the timing of the predicted ride opening about 2011-2012 also coincides with the 75th anniversary of Snow White. The Disney studios had a big 50th celebration for Snow White and I think a new Snow White ride for the 75th anniversary would be a big draw.

And of course Pixie Hallow would be a great addition.

Interesting, thanks for the info

You forgot Rapunzel's Tower is supposedly to be built in time for it's release in theaters and would be the first of Lasater's plans to build attractions in time for the movies release to make the most profit. Also the much needed face lift of Fantasyland. That Blue Sky was talking about too.

I agree that Pooh's Playful Spot was made to hide construction when it does start. The rest of the land for 2000 is enough for most of the rides, but there is also the HUGE amount of land directly behind of Fantasyland that is currently just trees, the Fantasyland expansion could be as big as they want.

I did kinda figure out that that little lake can't hold that big of a ride when I visited DL and went on the Nemo submarine ride. So it looks like Fantasy Land can have a big expantion right? I hope they do. I think that all that land they have behind MK should go to some use.
