Jurassic World VelociCoaster Construction Thread (Opening June 10)

[PWT]

JPRA reopens tomorrow, first one to ride make sure you report back to us how it looks!

 

[Starwarsfan13]

Dang, hope they had enough time to fix what needed to be fixed...

 

[WadeWilson]

I guess if the Today Show thing is a bust and TF doesn't soft I'll at least be able to see how it looks!

HTF, don't know how this jives with the most recent info you have, but I heard from a pretty solid bird that some sort of dark ride is back on the table for the JP expansion. Didn't read back more than a few pages and I've missed most of the discussion over the past month, but thought I'd throw that out there.

 

[Disneyhead]

I am hearing it is staying, and being upgraded and expanded.

What can they expand into? Also with this upgrade of JP they need to totally redo the Discovery Center, it's dirty and old...

Jurassic Park has a lot of dinosaurs with new skin and fixed necks. Most of the ride looked amazing. Until the 1 armed Trex with a big hole.

:bang:

Ummmm what.

Well, Im sure the T-Rex will be fixed.. its just weird they didn't do it when the ride was closed. Any pics of the improved Dinosaurs?

 

[Starwarsfan13]

You gotta be kidding me... If that thing still has a hole in his arm in 8 days i'm going to be pi$$ed...

 

[Hatetofly]

Still waiting on a custom piece, no worries. The ride is looking the best it has in many years.

I understand they're waiting on parts...but I don't think it's acceptable to have a ride open with its showpiece scene looking like that.

A missing arm is almost inoperable yeti level of bad.

Agreed, the ride should not be running with an armless Tiffany. (Especially if there's apparently an obvious hole in the skin...) Horrible show.

 

[Hatetofly]

Tell that to the Memorial Day weekend crowds :nunchucks: The ride has to be open and the part didn't get here in time. Lets try to focus on the positive and take in that ops, third shift, restoration, and Nassal did an excellent job.

 

[novawildcat18]

I'm assuming the gates have returned also? Or have they already returned before this long refurb?

I would think that a tourist spending a ton of money on their vacation would prefer a one armed Tiffany over a shut down ride. Remember, the tourists are where the profit is.

It's still bad show. Bad show is never okay.

 

[Starwarsfan13]

Perhaps (and I can't believe i'm saying this...) it would have been better to shut off Tiffany and cover her with fog until the piece get's here. (Or they could just put a strobe on her...)

Ether way... The ride probably is looking pretty good and i'm excited to get on it. (I'll probably get on it once they start letting people out off HP from early mornings,mainly so I can get on it a few times.)

Anyone have any pics.
