Tony Baxter would come out of retirement to update Figment’s Epcot attraction

Tony Baxter Figment

The future of Epcot is full of change. Epcot’s Future World is being rethemed with new attractions and mission statements for the land. But what about some of the current Future World attractions? Many ask if Journey into Imagination with Figment will see an update since Epcot is receiving an overhaul.

Legendary Disney Imagineer, Tony Baxter, recently expressed such an interest in Figment’s ride. Over the years, Tony has contributed many classic designs and rides to the legacy of Disney Parks. He says he is willing to return to work if he could redo Epcot’s Journey into Imagination.


It’s certainly interesting to see Tony Baxter is thinking about how a redo of Figment’s attraction is necessary. Unfortunately, there’s no such plans to touch upon this Epcot ride at the moment. But the notion of an update is certainly wishful thinking for Disney fans given Tony’s history with the company. After all, it’s confirmed that Tony Baxter is partly contributing to the retheming of Splash Mountain.

What’s your opinion of Journey into Imagination? Are you happy with Figment’s current attraction or do you want to see it change? Let us know what you want to see happen for Epcot’s favorite purple dragon!

One thought on “Tony Baxter would come out of retirement to update Figment’s Epcot attraction

  1. If Tony Baxter would come out of retirement to be the lead on a redo of Journey Into Imagination that would reclaim the essence of the original attraction I would gladly contribute cash towards that effort. I’m a Figment/Dreamfinder collector who wants Journey Into Imagination to go back to its original roots. Update the electronics and the ride but bring back Figment & Dreamfinder to once again be the attraction that everybody looks forward to and enjoys!! It needs to be a “feel good” attraction again!!!
