Disney has given us a sneak peek at the new Cast Member costumes for World Nature at EPCOT, which will include the cast at The Seas with Nemo and Friends, and the soon-to-open Journey of Water Inspired by Moana.



Like other recent costumes, Disney's design focuses on comfort, breathability, and an Earth-friendly recycled material.

Journey of Water Inspired by Moana cast will wear their sleeves rolled to expose a wavy design.

Journey of Water inspired by Moana is currently in test-and-adjust, with an opening expected in the coming months.

Perhaps this is just Epcot crying out I don't want this transformation that none of us asked aside minor enhancements or upgrades like Creation Shop and Connections made well better for Epcot how it was.

Did I ever suggest that? I simply stated that these things should not be happening within months of opening such things. Especially when you’ve made the consumer wait so long and had the park under walls for half a decade. It’s just bad show.

Listen I get the complaints but I will never attack Disney for fixing or repairing their mistakes. It’s unfortunate that things are already breaking in a newly constructed area. Maybe they need better oversight on these projects or a different contractor.

They shouldn't break this fast. It's embarassing. And we're not talking about complicated AA's. We're talking about lights and a water feature. And those lights failed after one night.

Things break…would you rather them ignore it?

All of this.

The problem isn’t that they’re trying to solve the issue, it’s that this park went through a multimillion multiyear “transformation” and some of the things promised don’t even fully function. That middle area has been behind walls for how long? And those new “lights” stopped working after night one…Moana isn’t even a year old yet and it’s already proving to be a maintenance workload.

Yeah! And I bet as soon as they get the Yeti fixed, they'll straighten this brand new problem ASAP . . .

I can't speak for others, but to me the fact that the state of "show" at Epcot is so poor now, especially when compared to what it used to be, that lack of reliability among newer effects becomes a more glaring issue when so many other effects, new and old, remain broken or in b-mode months or even years after failing. Ironic that a park systematically stripped of complex effects and moving parts over the past 25 years remains in relatively poor condition, and definitely below the baseline WDW show standards of the past, especially when there are fewer things to maintain.

Why do you guys always want to fault Disney for doing their jobs? They are working on it and here you are complaining that the issue is being addressed.

Especially because many new things at EPCOT are breaking and have been broken for some time now, with absolutely no clear intention to fix

monothingie13 hours ago

The problem is Disney has a HORRIBLE track record on this. If they didn't no one would really care that it was down for maintenance.

Private parts.
