Old Face on a New Bag
A new Figment Loungefly backpack has just appeared at Creations Shop within EPCOT. In an homage to the mascot of EPCOT, the glossy purple bag has meticulous details capturing the magic of the purple dragon, including his yellow eyes, orange horns, and wings. It has purple straps and a purple handle, and at the bottom of the bag is an illustration of Figment inside a yellow gear.
The inside of the Figment Loungefly backpack is lined with images of Figment, lightbulbs, and “imagination” icons that any EPCOT fan will recognize.
