Walt Disney Imagineering revealed secret technology created to make characters - big and small - that will be able to interact with fans at Disneyland and Disney California Adventure.
In the words of Alice in Wonderland, “Every adventure requires a first step,” and it seems like Walt Disney Imagineering has taken a giant one when they recently unveiled projects Exo and Kiwi - innovative costuming technology that has been kept under wraps for several years.
In an eleven second video that was released to their Disney Park’s social media channels, Disney Imagineers Jonathan Becker and Richard-Alexandre Peloquin walk around in enormous legs and legs, showcasing the early development of the animatronic technology.
Although only parts of the costuming was shown, fans have guessed that the characters shown may be the affable James P. Sullivan from Monster Inc., as well as conqueror Thanos, the mighty Groot and larger than life superhero The Incredible Hulk from the Marvel Cinematic Universe who would move than likely be a part of the Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure. It has also been reported that the technology is not only meant for giant sized characters, but also for miniature ones, like the loveable Baby Yoda and our favorite silly willy nilly old bear, Winnie the Pooh.
In other Marvel news, Kevin Feige recently revealed that Dominique Thorne will make her debut as Riri Williams in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Fans of Black Panther were also extremely excited to see the costumes available for Black Panther in the War for Wakanda expansion for Marvel's Avenger. Black Panther isn’t the only Disney entity grabbing headlines lately. An ESRB rating revealed Disney's Classic Games Collection is getting re-released and will also include The Jungle Book. Also a 90s classic Gargoyles is making a comeback in board game form.
