The dinosaurs from the Universe of Energy (later Ellen's Energy Adventure) at Epcot were permanently removed and largely decommissioned when the attraction closed in August 2017 to make way for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. During the final "ride" on the attraction's last day, a power failure caused a guest evacuation, allowing fans to take rare photos walking alongside the Audio-Animatronic figures. Following the closure, a few of the dinosaur figures were reportedly moved to other Disney properties or placed in long-term storage at "Central Shop," Disney's massive maintenance and storage facility. However, the majority of the prehistoric diorama was demolished to accommodate the massive new show building required for the Guardians of the Galaxy coaster. While rumors occasionally surface that some figures were sent to the DINOSAUR attraction at Animal Kingdom, that ride uses a different, more advanced generation of animatronics. For most fans, the Universe of Energy dinosaurs now live on only in the many "Easter eggs" found in the new attraction's queue and in the nostalgic memories of Epcot's classic era.
