Jurassic World VelociCoaster Construction Thread (Opening June 10)

@Alicia - did they make it the DC exit only just hours after your other pictures?



Hopefully they end up in the Prop shop. Those things are probably a decent weight.

What other pictures?

You can still enter the Discovery Center from the Burger Digs side, upstairs. The Discovery Center is still open. And my land clearing pics are from the second floor balcony seating area.

You just cannot go through the downstairs door to waterfront anymore now. Unless it’s an emergency.

Gotcha!

I was wondering if it was one of those “we have this person posting pics, fix it!” Situations where they blocked you off. Good to hear we can still get those good pics.

It’s like when I took that video for Irma at Magic Kingdom. Disney emailed the GM if the contemporary to let them know as well as put security at the contemporary crosswalk.

They probably woulda done it sooner but had to build that bridge thingy. My guess is the change was made when the bypass bridge closed a few days ago.

If it weren’t for those pesky Fire Marshall rules they probably wouldn’t have even set this emergency exit pathway up.

I didn’t expect them to tear down the arbor. My goodness.

Now we know where Discovery Center’s palms went to. Interesting choice to plant them so nearby.



Bio didn’t seem to make the connection...

Well they tried to sell them at the Prop Shop...but they wouldn't fit inside

Also, they should totally sell those claw lights

They’re not selling them yet. I actually checked.

And a diff perspective...

I believe that Piranha was in Lombards

It’s not a Universal Prop. It has the antique store price tag.

Why the hell did they buy a Piranha for the Prop Shop?

Also, what Piranha did I have dinner with at Lombards?

To help fill the prop shop with interesting things they share the space with an antique store called The Coop. I’m mainly only interested in the actual props with the Universal tags that tell you where they’re from, but some of the antiques in there are so strange they catch my attention.

Did you happen to get that pirhana’s phone number? Or just enjoyed the one meal together.

Yep, made a couple of visits to just hang out and admire the setting plus i had to take a pic from across the water to remember what was. You kinda do the same thing if I recall?

Realistically, how many inversions are we suspecting for this coaster? I would hope for a minimum of two.

Maybe 3?

That reminds me, I go into it a bit more on the recent UUOPodcast: Unofficial Universal Orlando Podcast : Unofficial Universal Orlando Podcast #336 - Universal Orlando Rumors 2019 & Beyond with Theme Park Stop's Alicia Stella

After seeing some new information....I'm counting a minimum of 4 inversions. If my eyes are not playing tricks on me, I see possibly a few more inversions bringing up the number to 6-7....

Also, I see what looks to be 6 pens. If it's not 6, there's 5 animatronics in the first show building.
