View attachment 662096

The option to create-your-own treat is BACK at Goofy’s Candy Company in Disney Springs! You can customize a sweet treat from 12PM to 10PM each day.

Hopefully this means chocolate covered pineapples are back. They haven't had them because they weren't making anything on site for so long because of health protocols

Oh, the line for that thing is going to be IN. SANE.

More Roofing Removed During Construction of The Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort​

Interesting that they have to replace the roof. I wonder if they found issues that required it be replaced. Then again the resort opened in 1988 so its probably EOL and they decided to do it now.

I would love to get that. I probably won't be there while they are selling them though. I love Elliot. I have an Elliot plush and a few t-shirts. Oh well, I don't really need more stuff

I think more.

That thing checks every box. Nostalgiac. Niche character. Dragon. Popcorn bucket that never touched any popcorn.

This guy's gonna outdo the Figment!

Imagineers Confirm Next-Gen Iron Man Animatronic for Avengers Campus in Paris

Thanks to previous leaks, we have a look below at concept art of the figure that Heerwagen says will be all-electric and feature 43 different functions. Heerwagen notes that this is an advanced figure for Walt Disney Studios Park.



In addition to confirming details about the Iron Man animatronic, Heerwagen also seemingly confirmed a recent leak that the giant screen outside of the attraction would be voiced by F.R.I.D.A.Y. by explaining that it will be “talking to you on a daily basis”.



Disneyland Paris has not announced an opening date for Avengers Campus at Walt Disney Studios Park beyond “Summer 2022”.
