Springfield Expansion

[Accio Butterbeer]

HTF confirmed it will be a Dumbo spinner.

ohhh okk i hope it has something a little different to it like one fish does with the up down handle and the spitting fountains. Just something that makes it different from other spinners you know??

 

[bobwadd]

why do you know for certain??

"I know nothing" :look:

Its also meant for kids, and a dumbo like spinner will allow all kids to ride, while the Gravitron or a Rotor would leave some kids not wanting to ride or can't ride due to size restrictions.

I was just wondering because i know for sure the spinner is themed around kang and kodos.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't there already a Gravitron down the road at Epcot? One of those is plenty for O-town! :boxing:

 

[Cruiseshipfan]

Different style of ride, MS is a g-force simulator. to give a sensation, while a gravitron uses G-forces to make you stick to a wall.

No gravitron in Epcot. That would be Mission Space and is roughly $100 million $$$$ more expensive than a graviton. Even though they are both "human centrifuges".

Do we have any concept art for the this expansion? thought they might have something knocking around by now. Or will they be waiting until Transformers goes live?

Thinking about it are they not going to be ready around the same time?

I haven't seen concept art for Transformers either, come on Uni show me some art work already.

It hasn't been officially announced, nor is there any released concept art.

I think Uni is being quite smart in not releasing concept art. They still create a lot of anticipation and intrigue around their upcoming projects, but they don't set specific expectations. This way they avoid any confusion or disappointment that may stem from seeing differences between concepts and the finished product (if any). Also, this way, they have an element of mystery and surprise, and the finished product has a bigger impact.

Anyways, they're pulling out such amazing work in record amounts of time, forget the concept art! Before you realize it, you got the actual attractions standing right before you

I watched the Simpsons Movie last night, was on TV. There are so many Characters you don't realise from a single episode but put them all in one movie and it's like wow. The merchandise ops for this will be endless.

I like the guys laugh, Haaa ha. I don't remember his name but his laugh is iconic. Haaa ha, hope you know who I mean or I will sound daft. Haaa ha

Unlike what Disney did and let every single person experience every detail at home before it opened.

Your thinking of Nelson.

Will have to be a good wheel to compete with Orlando Eye, I can't see this happening. Sounds like a recycled Jim Hill idea to me.

 

[Accio Butterbeer]

On the podcast from a website it came out yesterday but im listening to it today..
