    Anyone have any more info on this? I was at WDW in 1986 and don't recall seeing (or hearing) 'roof cannons' -- sounds fun though.

    Doubtful. But you wouldn't need to go outside the berm to add attractions to Adventureland.

    I'm pretty certain they were there then. They're still up there, they just don't make any noise.

    They used to move (I think) and make a cannon blast. It adds a great touch of realism to the area.


    And it should be noted, this is prolly tied to the new Sorcerers in the MK NEXGEN game...

    Im thinking 5 bucks a pop for 10 cents worth of plastic would be a great return, but what do I know?

    ...but the fountains do need to find a way back, without bothering that pesky water health law...
