How about removing the wand and then attaching it to a gigantic Tinkerbell shaped helicopter that could periodically encircle the castle at Magic Kingdom and scare the daylights out of all those not in on the secret. The wand could shoot fireworks out of the tip and make quite a show. It would be a way to recycle the wand, however I don't know how much that giant Tink helicopter might cost. Well, they could use it for corporate transportation and recoup some of the cost that way. Just a deluded thought.
Actually, when they put those videos together, they use a lot of old shots. Another cost saver, I guess, not filming new stuff. You know, using "stock" footage. I doubt it has any other meaning.....
