Disney4me Posted October 27, 2024 Report Share Posted October 27, 2024 DinoLand U.S.A. in Animal Kingdom is officially reaching its final days. DinoLand, U.S.A. As sad as we are about that, we’re looking forward to seeing what the new Tropical Americas Pueblo Esperanza land will look like here! We got the confirmation that the first parts of DinoLand U.S.A. will begin closing in January 2025 to make way for this new land, and DinoRama, which includes Fossil Fun Games, will be included in those first closures. We previously heard that once the current souvenir prizes ran out, there would be no more coming in, and it appears that NEW prizes (that are technically old) have now taken the place of some of the sold-out prizes! Recently, we visited the Fossil Fun Games in Animal Kingdom, and we noticed that NEW plushes are now available as small prizes. Previously, the small prize was a Mickey or Minnie Plush with a shirt that read “The Dino Institute.” However, it appears that those, along with some of the smaller dinosaur plushes, are no longer available. The old Mickey and Minnie Plushes and smaller dinosaurs These new prizes, as it turns out, are actually from years prior! These tiny dinosaurs are not branded to be from DinoLand or The Dino Institute specifically, and we haven’t seen them in the parks since before the 2020 park closures. According to a Cast Member, the old prizes are returning now that some of the Disney-themed small prizes are running out. The new (but old) prizes Again, at this time, these dinosaurs are only being used as the smaller prizes — the other dinosaurs are still available as part of the larger prizes, but they’re harder to win! The spread of prizes We encourage you to head over to DinoLand U.S.A. ASAP to play these games — as we get closer to this area closing, more and more of these prizes may disappear for good. We spoke to one Cast Member who told us they expect to get another shipment of the Mickey and Minnie plushes in, but another Cast Member indicated they were gone for good, so it seems like the fate of these souvenirs is up in the air for now!
