Triceratops Encounters Return

[mantaguy]

Dang, so I guess they haven't added it to the maps just yet.

No they have not, but they did have a guy standing near the entrance screaming at people to come in.

Today they had the Baby trike out front interacting with guests, enticing guests to o see the larger girls in the facility... Went through topper's area today and we went down a side path and through the front door... still used exit path to get there though. Also topper sneezed at the end on a bunch of guests, an effect that I was unaware of working till now.

I saw the triceratops pee. Awesome.

^To me that was always the funniest moment It just catches you sooo off guard. But at least they DONT have a pee smell in the air when he does, its only the liquid, cause if they had the smell people would barf

Just be glad the trike only had to go #1 and not #2.

TODAY it was the last day to see the triceratops. It's really sad, but i hope they will come back soon....
Bye, Triceratops!! See ya next year!!

That stinks that they had it open for such a short time. I haven't been over to Islands in awhile and just never got the chance to go over, especially with these crazy crowds.

I'm sure after all the research they have collected over the past few weeks it will make a comeback sometime this year, even better than ever!

How do you know this for sure?

I was told this by two Team Members. They said this publicly at the entrance of the attraction today. I've also taken a video where the "host" of the attraction says that the Triceratops would be there only for 24 more hours, and then they would go back six months to the Island...

Wow that sucks. We have to wait until June to see the trikes again.

That's what i think, that they will come back for the summer season, but don't hold your breath on that, as the "six months" may be just indicative...

They say that every show, and the team members were saying the same exact thing when I went 2 fridays ago, so don't be certain.

Actually, I've been there three times already, and it's the first time I've heard that...
Now I'm really confused! :shrug:

I heard the TM's saying something about new years so maybe they'll close it after all the holiday crowds leave, however I'm positive that the 24 hour 6 month thing is part of the show.

I just found out yesterday that I'll be going to IOA on the 3rd. I really hope it will still be open.

The reason no one has ever seen 3 trikes working is because Universal opens every day with two. If one goes down they open the spare.

Several members of Universal's Creative team pleaded to reopen the attraction with one of the ladies with no skin on so people could see how complex they are. I promise, they're much more impressive to see move without the skin on. The top of all dogs rejected it so the magic wouldn't be ruined and the theme wouldn't be broken. Lame.

There was a very specific reason the attraction was reopened and it wasn't for crowd control. It only holds about 400 people which is a drop in the hat for 50,000. The rest of the queue will NOT be redone...most of it has already been leveled and cleared out. What you see is what you get.

It will be open over Spring Break. ABout 70 days this year.
