Awhile ago, I shared with you that
the Celebrate a Dream Come True parade had ended at Magic Kingdom, to be replaced in March with another parade called Festival of Fantasy.
Well, the floats have arrived!
Float 1: Yes, that is an
awesome steampunk Maleficent dragon float – too
fantasmic for words! I literally fangirled when I saw the tweet a few weeks ago about the float because, as you (should) know, Maleficent is one of my favorite Disney characters, especially in her dragon form! I just hope this isn’t a tie-in to the upcoming movie because,
well, you know….
Float 2: this float is going to hold Mickey and Minnie. I love the colors, and I absolutely adore the use of
Fantasia characters. That movie and its characters needs more spotlight at the Disney Parks!
Float 3: Merida will be astride this bagpipe float, with her bear brothers popping
out of the drones. I think it’s funny how Hubert, Hamish, or Harris (whichever one of the three it was) looked limp in the video….odd that Disney let the
animatronic/puppetronic hang loose like that in the video.
Float 4: Can
you say WHOA-ho? (Catch my wordplay there?) This fantasmic float is going to host Peter Pan and Wendy in the ship, with Captain Hook and Smee on the anchor and Tink in the back. I absolutely love the different layers and film elements on this float – one of the best!
Two floats Disney “forgot” to include in the video are the
The Little Mermaid and
Tangled floats, which look just as cool as the others.
I love the colors on the Ariel float and the fact that it reminds me of my favorite Disney parade (
Mickey’s Soundsational Parade), and I can’t get over how absolutely astonishing the
Tangled float looks. That one I can’t way to see in person!
What are your thoughts? I’m thinking we’re in for a pretty fantasmic parade!
Keep in mind these floats won’t be parading in public until March this year!
