Springfield Expansion

Great photos, thanks! The area looks fantastic.

I always assumed the Lard Lad statue would sit on top of the roof of the donut store. I know it's not like that in the show, but it's in such a random spot right now.

Thanks for the images everyone. This looks absolutely awesome!

Incredibly faithful recreation of the show with great touches of humor, even in the menus. Huge kudos to UC! Can't wait to see the finishing touches.

So is Chief Wiggum's water feature just not on yet? Or was it cut?

 

[Teebin]

Isn't the back end of the police car supposed to be in the air? And why isn't the hydrant spraying water?

I agree that each of the statues seem too lined up and not in any purposeful location. Perhaps it is just the photos.

 

[Skubersky]

The hydrant was on briefly but they quickly shut it off, I overheard something about adjusting water pressure. The drainage is around the Jebadiah statue...

That all looks so great! I think this may be the only time in theme park history where the final product matched the concept art

Maybe they aren't blasting the water until the street is painted:shrug:

Guys, if you have any photos you wanna share, please send them to me at brian@orlandounited.com. We'd love to feature them on the main site. :thumbs:

And I am grateful they didn't go the 2D cut-out route for the characters. I would love if all of the characters in Marvel Super Hero Island were re-made as 3D figures, like this.

It all looks fantastic. If I had to nitpick, I would say I'm disappointed in the lack of appetizers at Duff. I was hoping for more bar-ish offerings. But I'll still drink there, for sure

I felt the same way ! I don't know many brewery's that serve fruit salad lol

It could be because its so new and still tweaking things or are missing equipment. I am surprised that it isnt a full bar though.

 

[Cupcakes]

Going to try to visit this Saturday or Sunday.

Same, so we could have adult specialty drinks.

Did the Welcome to Springfield sign make the cut?

I LOVE IT!!!!

Though I am disappointed by whatever Lard Lad is standing on (unless it is canon). It looks like a piece of plywood in a very random position. But the rest looks great! I'm also hoping the "Welcome to Springfield" sign is there.

As I said yesterday once the fence was gone there are numerous things that will still need to be done. This isn't "open" so to speak. Consider this an extended soft opening and you will see new additions and numerous changes and updates throughout August. Everyone just needs to chillax and enjoy this. You will not be disappointed once its 100% complete.

I'm almost positive a full bar is still coming
