When I'm down there, if the walk-around Figment is about, it'll be really hard for me to resist asking him when he ate the Miracle Grow and what happened to Dreamfinder... :figment:
Is there a walk about Figment?!

I've seen photos of Dreamfinder and Figment characters, but I'm sure someone mentioned there was a full sized Figment like Mickey too...

Though I haven't been to WDW too many times, I have been lucky enough (or unlucky enough in some aspects) to have been on all 3 versions of this attraction. The middle version was by far the worst! I agree that the original should never have been changed, but at least the current version has Figment again. :?

I actually love this ride... I never saw the middle version, I'm sure I saw the original in 1997 but I can't remember. But either way, I still always make time for Figment at Epcot.
