Figment Footprints Return to Exit of Journey Into Imagination After Two-Month Absence

On a recent visit to EPCOT, we discovered the Figment footprints, which have been missing since August, are back.

Figment Footprints Return

A curved hallway with smooth walls, a dark floor marked by faint footprints, and evenly spaced overhead lights leads into an unseen destination, like a figment of one's imagination.

Since mid-August the walls that lead from the end of Journey Into Imagination With Figment to the ImageWorks – The “What If” Labs have been solid purple as shown above.

A wheelchair is positioned against a curved hallway wall adorned with purple fish-shaped decals, reminiscent of Figment from Journey Into Imagination. Ceiling lights illuminate the scene.

Now, guests can celebrate the return of Figment’s footprints, as they have been repainted on the walls, once again guiding guests down the hallway. The footprints look exactly as they did before the walls received a new coat of purple paint.

A curved hallway with colorful, abstract wall art and track lighting overhead. Purple handprints and footprints mark the left wall, as if guiding you on a Journey Into Imagination, with multicolored light patterns illuminating the right wall.

This marks the second time that the footprints were painted over and then were repainted with no changes. The previous occurrence happened in 2016. The footprints were ultimately repainted in 2017.

The curved hallway, illuminated by fluorescent lights and marked with purple dinosaur footprints, guides visitors on a Journey Into Imagination. A green exit sign serves as a beacon, hinting at the presence of Figment around every corner.

For years, rumors have circulated that Journey Into Imagination With Figment could be getting a reimagining. However, while minor changes and updates have occurred over the last few years, the attraction hasn’t undergone any major changes.

Earlier this year, we predicted that there would be an announcement regarding the attraction at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event. Nothing regarding the ride was announced, and the attraction looks to be staying in its current form for the immediate future.

Check out the full history of Journey Into Imagination, as we explain all the major changes the attraction has gone through over its 40+ years of existence.

Also inside the Imagination! Pavilion, the newly refurbished Disney Vacation Club ImaginAtrium – A Member Lounge soft opened on October 26. It will officially open later this week.
