Phantom's props were crated and stored, from what I've been told. The park says the props and animatronic figures may make a return in a future attraction. They were on show at Fear Fest last year at the Paramount Action FX Theatre for Elvira's superstition, though I didn't get to see them since I decided not to ride it last year. They also played the Phantom Theatre theme music in the ride room until the movie started. You may see their return at this year's Fear Fest, though I'm not sure they are using them.

I bet if they uses them, they won't be working. They're run by a computer and it takes a lot to set them up and reprogram them. I would love to see them again though. I really doubt they'd sell them because probably there's something with them that they don't want the public to know, like how they work or whatever. I'm sure it's pretty obvious to figure it out, but I'm sure they don't want Disney buying all of them to compare designs.

"No there just anamatronic robot's from Sally Darkride Company."

Actually, the animatronic figures used in Phantom Theatre were not made by Sally. Sally Rides did produce the animatronic figures for Scooby Doo and the Haunted Castle, but they had nothing to do with Phantom Theatre.

The Phantom Theatre animatronic figures were produced by a company called AVG, Inc. who specializes in such things. They still exist. Here is a link to their site:

The overall themeing... storyline, effects etc were produced by a company called R & R Animation.

R&R was contracted to do two consecutive rides for KI. They first themed Adventure Express for the park in 1991 and then turned their attention to Phantom Theatre in 1992.
