Yeah, but did they need to be in individual plastic bags in your park about a call to action for conservation?

The floating Navi seems not to be an AA but a water buoyant neutral figure with a system (pneumatics/hydraulics/servos) to articulate the arms and legs. So still an animated figure, but still a great effect.

Troll comment: there are still more AAs on Kong than in this whole land.

Who's slamming it...? So far we've talked good and bad.

And to your point - I've already seen someone on twitter post they were crying tears of joy because there will be facepaint and it's something they've always dreamed of.

Gurrrl... get better dreams.

Nearly everything you say is negative and they are not even valid/realistic points. It's a joke. The land and the attractions looks awesome, bye.

He is actually controlled independently of the water inside the tank, so he is an AA

It is kind of funny that a lot of the merch is seemingly over packaged. Like - do the flip flops needs to be in heir own plastic bags?

He can not like things and you can like things. It's ok.

AA is defined as a figure with programming. Using your definition anything that's powered is an AA. It appears this figure has no programming. That's ok, it still looks good.

I know what an AA is... intimately. He has several show profiles that he performs. As I said, he is controlled by a show system independent of the movement/buoyancy effects of the water

If I'm not mistaken, aren't the ghosts in the Ballroom scene of the Haunted Mansion, not in the room itself, and that they are behind the guest eye? I could see that being a similar way of them tackling the Animatronic.

Full ride Through pulled from YouTube. Now a "highlights" video is up. You think it was copyright music from ride or Disney not wanting full ride through up?

The ones pn the chandelier are above the ride track, along with the painting gunfight. Everything else is below. Its being reflected back from a huge pane of glass (several). Trivia: If the glass ever needed to be replaced, they would need to remove the roof.

If I had to guess - he has puppetry cables through the umbilical apparatus and those control various chosen contractions that can be used in concert to create realistic movements.

Okay so the FoP queue has my attention. I don't have an annual pass but I'll be there May 11th. I'd assume my chances of getting in are slim to none?
