X-ing Over

Stuff to ponder

[gameraboy]

Two recruiting brochures for Disney from the late 1970s and early 1980s via Vintage Disneyland Tickets.

Truly they were a “Figment 2: Legacy of Imagination”

[x-ingover]

Interesting thought.

[soggycheesefry]

I peeked through the glass door of Figment’s Place (His meet & greet) a few months back, and was surprised to see that everything was still intact, and there was just a maintenance cart inside in the corner - I looked through the door yesterday to find this - the place completely gutted, only the old paint and that one standee laying against the wall. How sad. :( I wonder if they’re doing something with it?

Brilliant reflections from the crystal-like structure of Epcot’s Journey into Imagination

My pal Mike @bristerisms has a lovely personal passion project where he’s been recreating the now-defunct classic EPCOT attraction JOURNEY INTO IMAGINATION (with Figment!) as an online, ride-through 3D CGI simulation, viewable in a web browser!

A question for my Disney World followers in the know:

Okay, so…in the Disney World Tomorrowland, there are several posters and “advertisements” that were added during the 90s refurbishment. Here are some examples. (sorry for the terrible quality, I literally can’t find any of them on Google)

I wanted to know two things:

A. Who is the artist who created these.

B. Are there any high quality pictures/prints of them? I’ve noticed in my recent visits that these poor art pieces are looking pretty worn out, but I’m hoping people, like myself, thought they were very interesting and goofy and documented them somehow. 

I can’t find anything on them, unfortunately, so I appreciate all that you guys can offer!

[x-ingover]

Hmmmm, post/send your question to other Disney geek places, best bet is Mousebits or the Widen Your World Facebook page, the person who runs the Facebook page might be able to provide more info/documentation about the pictures. Be sure to tell her Timekeeper sent you. :3

I have seen Hell with my own eyes

[x-ingover]

And I thought It's a Small World was the journey to purgatory.

Archie vs. Predator is in stores now and to celebrate we’ve rounded up a collection of past Predator match ups from Aliens vs. Predator to Tarzan vs. Predator (yes, seriously.)

Who do you want to see Predator battle next? http://www.darkhorse.com/Blog/2192/

Cool. Crossovers can be cool.

So, are you guys (and gals) going to do the 12 days of free comics promotion?

It depends.  Have you guys been good this year?

[x-ingover]

Yeah, more or less. :)

The meaning of context and style in comics. The one and only Peanuts by Charles M Schulz and then Batman with knowing homage by Len Wein and Walter Simonson.

[flavorcountry]

This is the best thing I have ever seen.

[ryannorth]

Agreed

Hires renders of Mewnir from unbeatablesquirrelgirl, with a solid head, so it looks good in play!

You can get it printed from Shapeways or just download the 3D model here: http://sexyredheadednuns.org/Toys/Mewnir/

[unbeatablesquirrelgirl]

I don’t want to alarm you but if you have access to a 3D printer you can now 3D print Mewnir

[x-ingover]

Keeping this in thought for later.
