Last year, the Walt Disney company announced at their fan expo that they were working on creating an animatronic version of the man, the myth, the legend, to give fans a first hand glimpse of what the man was actually like.
We didn't hear much for a while after, but now, we're getting additional details. "He" (is it right to use a pronoun here?) will be featured in a new show called "Walt Disney - a Magical Life" at Disneyland, beginning in July.
The LA Times article below pretty much covers the hype and reality of what this actually means. I called him man, myth, legend in an earlier sentence. He's achieved a larger than life "hero status." But... he was still a human and as I understand it, never wanted to be placed on a pedestal. So striking the balance on a show will be quite the undertaking.
