Sorry I miswrote that, I meant to say they used the same molds. Though DLR's pirates had a few of the World of Motion AA's after it was closed.
Here's the various orgins.

That was a good article Wizzard, thanks for sharing! I knew they reused things but I didn't realize the extent sometimes!

Disney has recycled Audio-animatronics before, such as some of the "America Sings" characters being recycled directly into Splash Mountain. After all, it's just a waste to let the equipement go to waste.

They have done it with parade floats on occasion as well, one of the more high profile ones that was never used again was Light Magic.

Hmm... thats right I did notice the new gingerbread house but not the new ornaments. I need to keep a better look out next time. Thanks Wizzard419 on letting me know what changes there are. Haha... I am not the most observant of people when it comes to details

Technically it's Zombie Cookie, but zombies don't normally travel alone.

To get the full effect you need video!

It can only be in one place, where all the cookies are.
