Retired Muppet*Vision 3‑D Glasses Resurface at Toy Story Midway Mania
The reused frames highlight Disney’s routine recycling of attraction gear during the Monsters, Inc. Land build.
Overview
- Guests and park news outlets spotted light‑purple frames from the closed show mixed with the standard orange eyewear at Toy Story Midway Mania.
- Reports identify the purple pairs as original Muppet*Vision 3‑D glasses rather than replicas or newly themed variants.
- The move reflects Disney’s longstanding practice of reusing 3‑D hardware and suggests the company kept part of the former inventory in circulation.
- During the attraction’s final days, some of the purple frames were reportedly taken by resellers.
- The former Muppets Courtyard is under redevelopment as Monsters, Inc. Land, with filings and reports pointing to a suspended family coaster as a planned feature.
