Maybe because the want Disney media focused on galactic star cruiser?

I guess they didn't have enough time to design an Isabella from Encanto topiary this year.

This seems like a missed opportunity!

I agree...really been a lack of updates on things reopening for quite a while. We've given up on Fantasmic and Hoop Dee Doo for our May trip. Seems like since they have news worthy things like the Starcruiser and F&G that they're holding off on the other things.

Is it just me, or does that pin look more like "Animaniacs" than "Spike the Bee"?

That’s what we will hoping for as we go in May too

the last decent news was the parade coming back but that feels ages ago and barely anything since

With a lot of character interaction happening on the Starcruiser and long lines in the parks, it feels like there will be more pressure to bring traditional meet and greets back.
