The Backside of Vinyls - EPCOT '82

I really love the retro feel of this Vinylmation! What really drew me to it was the inclusion of the logos formerly used for the original Future World attractions at EPCOT. In total, there are 9 logos that were used for those attractions. This vinyl features 6 of those 9 logos, spread across the front and the back of the figure, plus the old logo that was used for EPCOT Center itself. Today, let's focus on the ones you may have missed on the back of this vinyl:

Starting with the back of the right ear, here you'll find (albeit in yellow) the logo used for World of Motion, one of EPCOT's original attractions:

Moving on to the left ear, here you can see the logo used for The Universe of Energy Pavilion, before it featured Ellen Degeneres:

Moving down to the back of the head, the first logo is for The Journey Into Imagination pavilion, featuring the original Figment and Dreamfinder:

The second logo on the back of the head represents The Land pavilion, home to Kitchen Kabaret and Listen to the Land, which have now become Soarin' and Living with the Land, respectively:

The last detail on the back of the head is the number "82", written in EPCOT's signature font, commemorating the year when EPCOT Center first opened - 1982. Finally, moving down to the back of the body, arms and feet, we can see brightly colored stripes running down and wrapping around the figure. These reflect the colors and stripes that featured in EPCOT's original image. These colored lines were used for everything from park maps, to merchandise. And there you have another Vinylmation that I love the back of as much as I love the front!
