In this special episode of Imagine That!, Amanda and the crew pay tribute to one of Imagineering’s quietest legends — Blaine Gibson.

From animating scenes in Sleeping Beauty and 101 Dalmatians to sculpting some of the most iconic figures in Disneyland, Walt Disney World, and beyond, Blaine’s work shaped the Disney parks in ways most guests don’t even realize. We walk through his early animation days, his unexpected move to WED at Walt’s personal request, and the timeless characters, sculptures, and statues he left behind — including the beloved Partners statue and dozens of animatronic favorites.

Whether you’ve admired the figures in Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, or “it’s a small world”, you’ve seen Blaine’s artistry in action. Join us as we honor the man whose hands helped shape the magic
