Just waiting for this to open with no noticeable changes lol

I don’t think the ride needs “changes” specifically, I just hope it reopens in good shape.

The only change I need out of Mummy would be to fix the bottleneck that is the entrance queue due to the tribute store, a nicer exit (at least add some studio theming if they want to go cheap), and darken the turntable.

It would need more work than it's worth to do meaningful upgrades to compete with GOTG.

I'm just amazed a "budget" ride from the Blackstone era is still around and getting some work done. I do love the ride so I'm happy.

We will see come gotg opening I haven't watched any povs. Mummy still might come out on top in certain categories.

This. I'd welcome some alterations/improvements, but I'd also be happy if they just restored the original, superior lighting package in the opening Imhotep scene (especially if they've given up on that figure's movements).

With a Monsters store now open in IOA ... seems things could pick up soon in putting the exit shop back together (hopefully with a coffee bar added).

I have a feeling the Monsters will continue to have a large presence in the store since Monsters Cafe is gone. Unless they create a new Monsters store somewhere else...

Especially if they’re moving from the Frasier mummy to the classic mummy. This is a side note, but I wonder if the Kongfrontation track will still be there. Always enjoyed trying to spot it after the second launch. Usually abandoned infrastructure can be an eyesore, but this is something that is hidden enough where you only see it if you know it’s there and are trying to spot it. I’m pretty sure that they physically can’t remove it though without cutting the ceiling open or something. We talk about them cleaning up the ride, but this is something I wouldn’t mind them leaving because it’s always so cool to spot

No matter what, since they own the Monsters franchise and they seem to be actively trying to merchandise it and hype it for the new park, it just makes sense to make it have a presence in the parks.

Don't know if its true but when I worked at Uni we were told the tracks were literally part of the building infrastructure and can't be removed.

I would guess Monsters presence on the original campus goes to zero (including HHN) when Epic opens?

Monsters need their own thread - they are everywhere right now, ha.

HHN is going to stay at the Studios.

 

[Horror Lover]

HHN is going to stay at the Studios.

I think he meant he was wondering if they'd stop using the Universal Monsters for HHN once their land at Epic is up and running.

They sell Minions stuff in IoA and Seuss stuff in USO. They'll sell whatever merchandise they want in any park regardless of the location of the attractions.

Don't really see why that'd be the case. It's not like they're building a permanent haunt in Monsterland and they seem to be doing pretty good for now. I would bet we'll see them take a break from HHN as soon as guests or staff simply get tired of them, rather than once the land opens up which could lead to bigger interest in the IP.

This 100%. I could definitely see them take a bit of a break from Monsters at HHN - but I'm sure they'd never completely go away.

 

[UniversalRBLX]

Early HHN 33/34 speculation - one big Universal Monsters hhn house to promote the land

Take with a grain of salt but:

 

[graspthesun]

Where is the store in IOA? I haven't been to the parks since March.
