Comments on: D23 Expo: 20 pieces of concept art for the major Fantasyland expansion now confirmed for Walt Disney World http://attractionsmagazine.com/blog/2009/09/12/d23-expo-20-pieces-of-concept-art-for-the-major-fantasyland-additions-now-confirmed-for-walt-disney-world/ Orlando area attractions and magazine information Fri, 19 Mar 2010 23:45:09 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Steve http://attractionsmagazine.com/blog/2009/09/12/d23-expo-20-pieces-of-concept-art-for-the-major-fantasyland-additions-now-confirmed-for-walt-disney-world/comment-page-1/#comment-7497 Steve Sat, 28 Nov 2009 01:36:01 +0000 http://www.attractionsmagazine.com/blog/?p=3374#comment-7497 Really nice concepts but much ado about nothing. One big new ride in the area is not enough. A beauty and Beast attraction is in order to go along with the Little Mermaid attraction. And what will happen in the older Fantasyland area. The existing Pooh attraction exterior, with tacky plywood books needs an upgrade. Let's hope the existing Fantasyland will end p more like the Disneyland California version.

Gary - I agree with Timothy in that the concept art shouldn't be read into too much. It could be trying to depict one spinning. Cynthia – They didn’t announce any specific months.

Looks to me like the spinner on the right is in a load/unload position while the spinner on the left is in motion ... much more difficult to illustrate all of the Dumbos flying at different positions in the air.
