That launch is going to be something else.

The launch portion looks so perfect compared to the mayhem around it that it's like looking at a swimming pool in a flooded area.

Is Facebook monetised out of interest?

Photos look amazing, Dan! Especially the ones through the cave-like bridge overpass. Theming is fantastic.

Here's the video format with even more!

Negative, it's just a simple redirect back to the original work. The image being ripped and posted here shows nothing on my end in terms of views.

Thanks Alicia! Theme work has picked up quite a bit since the last time I had a chance to visit. I'm interested to see the progress on the hut within the next month.

Word on the street is train testing is gearing up to happen soon, although I'm guessing it'll be at night so no one can see, and maybe not even with a completed/themed train. They've already been doing envelope tests, and apparently they can't complete some themed elements until after a pull through. Woohoo!

There was a lot of action going on around the launch after the hut. I would expect to see a partial train and it to be done at park close - HIDE THAT THING NOW FROM BIO.

I was just curious. As a rule of thumb, we should all link to the original as it gives the credit to where it's due and shows the credibility (Obviously you're credible)

Get those high zoom lenses ready to look for track marks.

Will do, sorry. Just couldn’t figure out how to get the link from Facebook on mobile.

All good bud! I'm always extremely appreciative of the support from the Inside Universal community and thank the owners for allowing other media outlet's work to be posted on here.

Mmmmmm this part :drool::drool::drool:

 

[Teebin]

Ooooh... we shall be darting through ancient catacombs beneath it all.

I never seen an old gothic building in Europe have these kind of bricks. If it tries to simulate plaster than it really is wrong.
But looking at the pictures of Dan above this post I even get emotional about how good this is going to be and I hope Uni will have walking tours trough the area.

Yes tielo, it is very odd... the building would have been constructed of large solid blocks of limestone or similar. Perhaps they are suggesting that the abbey was attacked by the Germans and some of the stone work had to be filled in and repaired. :look:

Isn’t Fantastic Beasts building up to WWII and an infamous battle?

 

[SkiBum]

I really love the entrance/exit points and how they look a little caves. One thing I did wish was that the drop out of the "abbey" was fully enclosed to look as if you were dropping through the ruins of an old building. However, that is small potatoes. This just looks awesome.

 

[Parkscope Joe]

Everything looks incredible so far. Thanks @RollermanDan

I'm wondering if Universal's unprecedented May calendar (both IOA & USF open until 9:00 PM on 27 May days) indicates that they are pushing to soft open the new Potter Coaster early that month.

That’s not unprecedented. That’s summer/busy season hours for Universal and that date you are talking about is right over Memorial Day weekend.

Amazing photos to @RollermanDan, holy crap does that tunnel's underneath the bridge looks amazing.
