I just wanted to know if the tram guide was implying that the portraits you saw were the new ones or not.

The DL lightning hallway effect is being installed at MK but the moving eye portraits (without the moving eyes) are being repositioned to elsewhere in the attraction.
Originally Posted By ChiMike Ahh.. Thanks for the correction and good news. To make sure I have it correct: Where the "sinister 11/moving eye" were, WILL be the DL portraits. The moving eye portraits will then be relocated; maybe the attic, maybe the staircase, etc...
Originally Posted By leemac ^^ I believe they are being relocated to the space immediately before the load. The attic is going to be DL's attic and the staircase has the new ectoplasm/floating staircases effect instead (it is pretty cool). Even those awful wobbly spiders will have a new home.
Originally Posted By ChiMike Again great news Lee. Thanks for sharing. The DL attic is one of the best things WDI has done. I am glad to see the scene come to MK's HM.
Originally Posted By DLFAN1979 omg leemac, so SOME of the Sinister 11 are comming BACK? But w/ no eyes? Could Marc Davis' orginal concepts finally see the light of day? And where could they possiibly move them too? I thought we were getting a 100% clone of DLs gallery. Maybe the Sinister 11 will end up in the Corridor of Doors? And i heard the spiders are NOT comming back. hmmmm......
