Re: Fantasmic Dragon Spotted In Broad Daylight

What we need is a photo with a person next to it. For comparison. Like during the show when Mickey is there. I have a feeling it will look a lot larger in a shot that is framed properly rather than a wide shot of the whole RoA front.

Mickey is shorter than the door on the house, right? So the turrets the dragon holds onto are about the size of the door, maybe bigger. So I am guessing Mickey is a little shorter or as tall as the turrets.

Re: Fantasmic Dragon Spotted In Broad Daylight

I think that mickey is a little smaller than the turrets. I could be wrong though.

Re: Fantasmic Dragon Spotted In Broad Daylight

For those who still can't see the head and wings, I used Paint (sorry, Photoshop's on another computer) to write in a "1" with brackets to the head and a "2" with brackets to the wings on one side:

Re: Fantasmic Dragon Spotted In Broad Daylight

I don't understand how people can be judging the dragon so harshly already when its built to be seen in the dark and with specific stage lighting.

For those of you who fail to realize how big this thing actually is, based off a few numbers I had:


(Orbitor Shot)

"Puny"? I think not...

Re: Fantasmic Dragon Spotted In Broad Daylight

35 feet or 40 feet or however tall it is... that thing is bigger than it looks from that faraway shot. Stand next to it and it would be seriously towering over you.

And to those complaining about the color... apparently you've never seen Sleeping Beauty. That dragon is the exact same colors as the dragon in the move... black with a purple stomach, small wings and a smallish head. Disney sells plushies of the dragon that look like this too. And remember that the dragon was NEVER meant to be seen in broad daylight like that by Joe Q Everydaguest. Just wait until it gets under the lighting scheme that was designed for it. Then you'll see how it's supposed to look for you.

Since I'm on the east coast, it'll be a long time before I'll get to see this thing in person (unless WDW gets its act together and gets an upgraded dragon of their own), so I am seriously excitied about seeing this thing in action.

Re: Fantasmic Dragon Spotted In Broad Daylight

It looks awesome in broad daylight. Use your imaginations and picture all the lighting fog, music, and actual movements of the dragon. Million times better than the head on a stick, and more lifelike for sure (for a dragon).

And finally, its not the size that counts...............
