Journey Into Imagination With Figment at EPCOT in Walt Disney World - Full Queue and Ride POV Video

Happy Birthday to everyone’s favorite purple dragon, Figment! Journey Into Imagination opened on March 5, 1983. Since EPCOT Center didn’t feature classic Disney characters at the time, Figment became the park’s unofficial mascot and star. The original version of the ride also introduced guests to Dreamfinder, who you could meet outside the Imagination Pavilion with a puppet version of Figment. The ride itself was much longer and used an omnimover system, like other classic EPCOT attractions, Spa
