News Round Up 2017

Tim Tracker got a ride in a Minnie Van and was told by the driver it will be a SEPARATE app from MDE... obviously he’s not a “reliable” source but I’d find this very annoying considering they are trying put everything in MDE

Another video said they think it will eventually be tied to the MDE app so who knows. I think at first it will be separate though.

Wow! Sold out already? Glad I snagged one yesterday.

I was surprised too. However, other than the Tiki one, it's the only LE one that I have really liked. I would get the Tiki, but I wanted to have a different one than DH. Maybe it's wrong, or maybe the parks just sold out of their initial supplies. I noticed that they still have the Tiki Room, Pirates Movie, and Dumbo ones. Although, Dumbo says in-store purchase only. Hopefully, the Disney Store still had them when I ordered. Usually their supply info is pretty accurate.

Wasnt' there a report it connected to Lyft - maybe it uses their app? At least to start?

As far as new immersive lands. Percy Jackson? That would be SO cool. Especially if they are not going with Greece in WS

It would conflict with Hercules though wouldn't it?

They have space stuff all over the blinking place, and still have Star Wars. I mean what's with Star Wars Land, and then the Space restaurant in Epcot? Plus there currently is no Hercules presence?

Rumor

Martin on WDWMagic is saying hotels are going to play a role in the future of Epcot. What that means is uncertain at this time. There was a rumor a while back about a hotel being built at or near the entrance of Epcot and then of course there were those old World Showcase hotel additions.

3 words: Death Star Experience.

Playing off the fully immersive Star Wars resort, they gut Spaceship Earth, make it look like the Death Star, and build the resort inside of it. They could charge thousands for a few nights staying in a 5x10 detention block cell, or even more to stay in the trash compactor with genuine collapsing walls and an animatronics snake monster thing.
