Nintendo Coming to Universal Parks

[AlexanderMBush]

All the Hagrid animatronics are well done, I can only imagine how well done and lifelike their indoor animatronics are.

Especially when LifeFormations does have a budget.

Or, this might be a meet & greet character head.

Creative wouldn’t make those...

They'd be done with an outer tenant, like the Raptors correct?

Entertainment/costuming would take the lead, and they do have to ability to develop stuff internally. It could be contracted out also.

But, two man reasons it wouldn’t be a costume piece:

1) That shot isn’t in the costume shop.
2) They don’t need costumes for the new park (specifically Nintendo) until it’s announced. Unless we’re expecting that in the next six months, it’s unlikely they have costumes made yet.

From Facebook:

"I was watching Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone on SyFy and during the commercial, they were talking about Hagrid’s Motorbike Adventure and I looked in the background and saw a surprise."

Japan opens next year right? Not saying you are wrong. Just that theres more than just Orlando.

So to bring this up, pictures of what would've been the Orlando version have gone out (model), and all I can say is..simply put, wow.

Gone out where? Or do you mean the old Kidszone plans?

It is a series of images, what would've been the Kidzone plans.

It's out on social media platforms, and for the sake of transparency, I am not posting the images themselves; as I am not sure if they are legit or not (and even if it is legit, it's..problematic on a public level).

 

[Mad Dog]

If anyone's interested there's photos of this on Alicia's site. Images are from 2016, so possible some things changed.

 

[Scott W.]

Looks great.

 

[JungleSkip]

Cannot wait for that Donkey Kong area in FW

 

[Brian G.]

Goes without saying, and ya'll have figured it out, but just in case.... Don't share it here.

 

[Palutena]

Oh wow, the whole thing looks amazing, the DK section especially surpasses the expectations/excitement I previously had for it.

 

[Captain Tragedy]

Holy crap, that's beautiful.

 

[AlexanderMBush]

DK looks like what would've happened if Kong and Hagrid had a baby on theming and immersion, and it looks amazing.

 

[UniversalRBLX]

There are a lot of interactive elements.

 

[Cup_Of_Coffee]

Stunning to be perfectly honest

 

[Mike S]

Can someone send me a link? Google search isn’t helping.

Honestly looks like the best part of it, imo. I hope this aspect comes to the third park!
