The figures look exactly how I expected them to.

Originally Posted By Spirit of 74 I'm curious to see exactly how 'different' this is from HKDL's version (which I honestly loved, btw) because to read Westsider's comments, it seems like everything he is describing was what I saw in HK. The only characters I think I recall vividly that he hasn't mentioned were Woody, Jesse and Bullseye, Ariel and Marie.

Originally Posted By Anatole69 The argument isn't whether she looks fine, the argument is whether she blends in. She is standing all alone on the top of that column in a prominant place. That ain't blending in. And I think she looks terrible, though that is more subjective so feel free to argue that point if you want to, though it is a minor issue for me. - Anatole

I suspect it would more or less reflect the diversity of opinion about the ride on this board and other Disney Forums. As it is, most people will ride it expecting it to be nothing more than another amusement park ride, and they will have no reason to treat it any differently, since Disney isn't treating it any differently now either. - Anatole
