Oh yeah, I remember those now. I think that movie had Bette Midler in it to didn't it? And didn't it go through the costume building where you could see all sorts of people working on sewing up new costumes Etc? And the actual studio building which is now the launch bay, where there were artist drawing? IWe did those tours and I'm sure all the other attractions for the time. I think our trip was in maybe 1989 or 1990? It was our first Adventure in Florida!

Yep, the costume department was great, and I loved the animation studio. I wish they still had the animation studio, but with a lot of it digital, it probably wouldn't be quite as interesting.

Edit: Just realized while writing this, next year marks 30 years since I first went to WDW...wow...I feel old.

I don’t remember bringing Ant man up in this discussion but is he not part of the avengers? If so he’s out. If a character is part of the avengers they are out.

A character that appears in an avengers movie is not necessarily out though. Guardians and Dr. Strange which both appears in Infinity War were not part of the avengers.

The way I understand it/think of it has nothing to do with cutouts or anything

It is if the character was ever officially a member of the Avengers in the comics then Disney cannot use them in WDW. So Black Panther was a member at one time so he is out but the Guardians never were. Just appearing in an Avengers movie does it count - you need to have beeen an official member at one point

Simply being an Avenger doesn't make a character off limits. Dr. Strange has been an Avenger and will be again in the new comic series. I believe when the contract was drawn up, all the characters were sorted into the "family" for which they were best known. For example, Spider-Man was an Avenger but is best known as a solo character. So he's part of the "Spider-Man family".

True however due to Black Panther's part of the Avengers he is in that family and cannot be used in WDW. Dr. Strange is not in that family and can be used as we saw.
 
Rteetz, any chance you will be posting up links to the ABC special segments that are airing today on Toy Story Land?

I remember how great it was when you were able to provide links to the segments last year when they did the same for the opening of Pandora.

Its really quite frustrating that they don't simply tweet out these segments as they air them live as they are essentially serving as infomercials anyway.
