Spectromagic

[DaRkNeSs]

Spectro is not coming back. The floats have already been destroyed. Most were damaged while kept behind Main Street. Yes, they were there the entire time. I talso saw them about 3-4 years ago on the Keys to the Kingdom tour. The plan was to upgrade the lights to LED. In typical Disney fashion, they let another project be put on hold for to long and poof, no longer happening. SOrry to burst bubble, but Spectro has already joined Horizons, 20, 000 leagues, and Mr. Toads Wild Ride.

Well that is a real shame my family including my two sons really enjoyed spectromagic and we're looking forward to its return! Another favorite from the past gone forever! Boohoo!
Good thing thou disney spent 1.5 billion on stupid bands thou that's going great so far

Don't believe the figures you're reading on the bands.

and besides, if they did not use money on MB's that does not mean that they would try to fix that ol'busted show anyway, or even build another ride with it... don't understand people and the fixation with how much is spent on infrastructure. you most likely would not be saying anything since disney does not release numbers on things like computer upgrades. how much did they spend on asphalt sealer last year? how much on replacement towels that people steal? how much on the darn electric bill?

That durn electric bill would be less if they switched to LED lights.

Just sayin'.

Just for perspective, the Walt Disney Company's most valued asset is ESPN, with it driving 42% of their operating income. The parks may make money, but they can't make anything near what cable makes.

[Goofyfan]

Isn't that what they already were doing?

No. Spectro has been gone for a few years now.

[Wizzard419]

I know that, but what I was saying was that it flipped back and forth between DEP and Spectro. One would run for a year or two while the other was being refurbed, then switch.

Aren't the photos of the floats being demolished in this thread? They were photographed, so they probably won't be coming back unless they decide to build exact replicas for some reason.

I've been looking for those photos everywhere. They too seemed to have gone POOF!!
