The Wand is no more. This angle shows it's not so pretty mechanical construction. I always thought if they made the hand and wand from a 3D mold it would have looked best from all angles.
Very briefly, can anyone tell me why the wand was first added and why it was removed?
I never went on this, but wish I could have. Just out of curiosity, did the Imagineers really think a Pooh playground was better than a popular E Ticket ride?
Anyway . . . here's my POTD: A Wave From the Beast!
It is upstairs from Test Track and set up for GM employees (of which I am not). Used to be something similar at what was the Living Seas. UTC sponsored the attraction and my dad, as an employee, was allowed "backstage" access. There is a lounge with beverages and you bypass the transition areas and jump on the right.
