Maleficent Revealed...



The Disneyland Resort has released photos and a video of the new audio-animatronic Maleficent Dragon...



I have only one thing to say about it: "Frickin' Awesome!"

Hat Tip to the Orange County Register's Blog.

PLEASE bring one of these to WDW, asap.

Fully functional, of course.

This dragon is a definite improvement over the old one!

Plus, it looks just like the concept rendering, and that is always good news.

"I don't like it."

O_o

How can one NOT like it? This actually looks like huge, realistic, menacing dragon, instead of a head on a stick that Disney had to keep shrouded in fog to hide its simplicity. As I said earlier, I hope that Murphy the Dragon finds its way to WDW soon... though I won't get my hopes up.

Eer, having a really great looking dragon at WDW will just make the rest of the all ready cheesy show look cheesier (have you seen that boat in the finale :O)

The dragon does look great!!!

There should not be any reason for anyone to be disappointed by how he dragon looks;

First of all, it looks just like the concept art, so there should be no surprises there.

Second, the dragon looks just like the dragon in "Sleeping Beauty", purple and black. So again, there should be no surprises in that regard.

Basically, any Internet nerd who spends so much time obsessing over something is always doomed to be disappointed.

Obsessive Internet nerds are not like "normal" people.

REGARDLESS of what the Internet crowd thinks, the general pubic--the crowds of people who come to see Fantasmic every night--will love the dragon.

It looks like a blow up doll, what a let down. I'm very dissapointed.

Looks good, but not good enough to shell out for a pass right now.

Well, the new dragon premiered to the public tonight. And quite a few people filmed it and put it on youtube.
In the videos there is a lot of cheering and excitement for it :)

I'm looking forward to seeing it in person!
