Originally Posted By pheneix I've got to agree, the new ride is awesome. The ending was of particular surprise.

I'm shocked at how well the rehab was done. The Imagination Institute is finally cool again. My thoughts and prayers go out to David.

Originally Posted By goldenstate5 Yep, just one thing: What is the name NOW? There has been some confusion over this. Is it: "Journey into Imagination With Figment" or "Journey into THE Imagination with Figment" OR "Journey into YOUR Imagination with Figment"? What is it?...
Originally Posted By dennis-in-ct THANKS for the pics and resport!! A friend is supposed to send me video next week. I miss the original. That and Horizons. *sigh* why do people all want THRILL rides?!
Originally Posted By CuriosWolfSo Happy to hear that my favorite little dragon is back where he belongs in his home but why the pictures from the report looks fuzzy and Figment is blurry and hard to see except that clear upside down one from the upsidedown room ?
Originally Posted By SJHYM Its a combination of the lighting, not using a flash and that the vehicle was moving. I didnt realise how fuzzy they were until Doobie put them up. They looked crisper on my digital camera screen. Plus we were rushing to be the first website to have an article up...LP.com all the Disney news all the time!!!!

Originally Posted By jasonriv I wish I didn't have to wait until next April to see the new ride! I gave the first rehab several chances, but just couldn't get into it. I've missed Figment and couldn't wait for his return when I heard the ride was being rehabbed again. I even celebrated on the day the ride closed for its 2nd rehab!

Originally Posted By SJHYM It isnt as intense as it was. The kids sitting in the next car hardle budged when it happened
Originally Posted By Kevin Page For anyone who has ridden the original and this one, which do you like better? I really liked Dreamfinder and the original attraction. Yeah it could have used a little updating and some whiz bang technology. But does the new attraction feature Figment as much or just more than the original rehab? Thanks Kevin Page
