Comments for Disneyland and D23 send old “Fantasmic!” dragon down LA freeways to Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives exhibit

Maleficent’s massive purple dragon head from Fantasmic sits atop a truck bed, its glowing yellow eyes and menacing teeth instantly recognizable to Disneyland fans. Parked among trees and cars, this striking float pays tribute to the iconic villain as seen in both the legendary nighttime spectacular and the Treasures of the Walt Disney Archives exhibit.

    It looks like it’d be part of a Figment themed Monster Truck at eye level.

    Okay, I can see why it’s not at the SF Disney museum, but Ronald Reagan Library??

    When is WDW getting the full bodied dragon update? It’s bad enough that the characters ride on a fake steam boat, and there is no Peter Pan sequence.
