1.5 months after it was closed, the beloved tile mural that welcomed guests to the Universe of Energy at Epcot has been removed.
A peek through the entry doors shows that the mural is being ripped off of the wall.
The Universe of Energy is being replaced by a Guardians of the Galaxy attraction.

Can’t wait for my ride to come in and join the party at EPCOT!! Love it!!
It’s going to be a roller coaster
Hopefully they replace it with a mural of Polaroid pictures of Captain EO, young Starlord and Walt together at Epcot in the 80s to honor the history and theme of Epcot
People are shocked that they are taking things down from the pavilion?? Did you miss the part where they said it was being replaced and re-themed?
