animatronics

Nolan explains that all these animatronics are bespoke parts created using 3D printers.

It’s swifter, the animatronics are generally closer to us, and the slightly shorter ride time ensures there’s no elongated scenes without some critter action.

"The public is rightly outraged, especially knowing that today, anything is possible with CGI, AI and animatronics," the statement said.

“It’s not the animatronics - it’s us. At least respect us enough to pay us a decent wage.”

Tiana’s features all new animatronics — 19 original critters and 48 animatronics in total, according to Disney.
