So are those portable gates temporary? Will permanent queue bars be installed?

I'm pretty sure they will remain portable with this being a possible Krusty M&G location, but not 100% on that. I will say Krusty's Airstream Camper should be in this area though :thumbs:

Interesting. Thanks for the info. :smiley:

I will totally line up for a Krusty M&G

Forget Krusty, I want a Mr. Teeny meet and greet!

I want "khlav kalash" and "crab juice" http://youtu.be/edCigBUKQAY

So construction will skyrocket next week, right? I remember HTF said after New Year's construction would skyrocket.

 

[Hatetofly]

Construction has picked up speed and was the only area with visible work being done today.

Pics with Descriptions will be up in the VIP thread tonight with an entry into my secret stash within 48 hours.

From today,

Great pics HTF! Quick question (sorry if this has been asked before): Are the Simpsons flags staying?

 

[bobwadd]

Steel work is really moving along. Thanks for the pics :thumbs:

^ If you mean the banners on the purple poles. Yes, I believe so.

Thanks for the updates, HTF! Great pics!

They've extended out the restaurant area quite a bit. And looks like they're almost done with demo for the spot where the new ride is going. Can't wait for this to shape up soon enough!

Looking forward to the VIP and Secret Stash posts! Woohoo! :happy:

I don't see why they wouldn't. There's more reason for them now with a Simpson's themed area, rather than just one attraction in my opinion.

 

[TomTheRiddle]

Whoa! The steelwork just kind of appeared. It really is moving quickly!

I'm glad they're slowly killing off the old Universal infrastructure. Mind you, not the rides, but things like old restaurants and chairs and the like. As much as I loved IFF, it was a dump.

I don't know if Universal is implying something but the speakers in front of moe's plays separate music from the rest of the park and the first time I walked by was Fly Like an Eagle and the second time was Free Bird. Why the bird related songs?

Old Soundtrack loop for when people would be going from International F&F to Animal Actors stage. The area also features other animal related tracks such as Houndog by Elvis.

 

[Brervixen]

Ohhh. I wonder if they'll have an esquilax exhibit?

Update from AmusementPics:

Update from Orlando Theme Park News:

New tables have been installed next to the Hot Dog stand:

...and we know the reason behind this move...

The new extended queue for the Simpsons Ride is now free from those ugly-looking temporary fences:

As we stated in our previous update, this may become a future meet-and-greet place:

 

[Swiminn6]

Thanks so much, i've been dying for an update!

Look at that hot dog stand! :jaw:

 

[Felipe]

Thanks for the update, BJCool! :thumbs: A bit of progress in the shells for the restaurant facades, I see.

Look at that hot dog stand! :jaw:

RIGHT?!

 

[UK-Trigg]

Really looking forward to seeing how this turns out, should be a fab addition. I last visited UNI last August, I will hardly recognise the place by the time I'm back in October. Way to go UNI

As always, thanks for the updates :thumbs:
