Epcot (General Discussion)

I am thinking they fully removed all three to implement more permanent fixes/rebuilds. As Donald is the second well known failure now.

I wonder how much time/effort they put into them when they added them, seeing as they were from the original review show in MK back in ‘71.

Mandatory "Schickel despised Walt Disney and his biography isn't one of the better ones" disclaimer!

I agree but that quote hits a bullseye.

Rainbow wall versus tombstones. Not a bad fix. Hard to tell how tall these are from the photo. I’ll have a chance to check it out soon.

Looks about construction wall height.

WDWNT confirms about 9’ high which makes viewing the upper rows of photos a bit difficult

Tombstones to the Berlin Wall

Tombstones to the Berlin Wall

It's still bad, but it's an upgrade I guess since the tombstones are gone

How long is Disney contractually held to display these things? I believe that's the only reason they're back is because they didn't fulfill their contractual requirements yet.

From my prior research, they have until June 16, 2027.

Had they not continued to sell them after the Millennium Celebration, the contract term would be up for all of them by this year.

EDIT: Probably have to add in the time they were down since removing and before opening this location before they can actually remove them.

Well, at least it's outside of the main entrance to the park if these are gonna be around for another 6 years.

They look like paint swatches.

Walkway from furthest parking lots on giant Guardians building side, in front of the bathrooms outside the park on the left of the security station. If you were walking down the main tram road towards the park, it would be PRETTY far to your left before entering the park.

Oh wow! That is way out of the way. That’s for the description!

More LaL tiles added in a different location. These are near Epcot Security check just off to the right of the monorail ramp. The other ones were all the way over walking in on the far side parking lot past the GotG gravity building.

Maybe my opinion will change when I see them in person but this just looks like a colorful Disney construction wall to me.

Well... maybe cause that's because they're ultimately likely temporary.
