Disney unleashed, perhaps, the best animatronic EVER last night. It is a Dragon that is capable of full airborne flight. It has flapping wings, an articulating head and limbs, and it even breathes FIRE! It was spotted flying high above the Magic Kingdom during Disney's Media Event for New Fantasyland.
There are several videos circulating online of this creature.
HERE is Intercot's own video.
And HERE is Disney's Official Video.
Enjoy!

According to Disney it was a one night only thing. It's not that they haven't left open the door for future uses, but at the moment it is not planned to be a regular thing, unfortunately. Maybe if enough fans cry out for it then it will happen. I sure would love to see it in person, too.

My feeling is that they put a lot of money into that thing. It's not going to sit gathering dust. I'd love to see them incorporate the technology into future things. Can you imagine something like that in Fantasimic??

One comment on the official video says that this is a Powered Parachute. With animatronic aded ons of course.
I dont think those things have a large gas tank so with the added weight, it probably cant fly for a long time. Also there might be issues with the FAA as far as flying over the park is concerned. I am simply guessing.
It would certainly be an amazing part of a night time show. Wish i could have seen it.

BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.
