I mentioned a few pages back that you can probably expect the tentacle to animate, as well as Uh Oa, the Tiki Goddess of Disaster (whom you mistakingly claimed as Trader Sam. If you need to watch the awful once upon a time "Under New Management" then I bookmarked exactly where she comes in here

You're right, you did post that earlier. I know that sometimes its not easy posting without re-reading more of the entire thread, wish I had more time. We're up to 18 or 19 pages now, and that detail got lost.

Oh, I didn't think I was claiming the figure was Trader Sam at all, but I was definitely questioning and asking if it was Trader Sam because I wasn't sure. I thought to myself (and still do) that it looks a lot like the Trader Sam character in Jungle Cruise. But if it is Uh Oa, ok, I get it now. I think you can see that I don't take Disney concept art too seriously given their propensity to dream and design and then budget cut the hell out of stuff.

And thanks for the video bookmark. I avoided "Under New Management" so much that I may have only seen the whole thing a couple times at most. I forgot all about that - it must've left an awesome impression on me.
