Skull Island: Reign of Kong - General Discussion

[Mad Dog]

2 motion base scenes, bug pit and 360. Not too much movement in the pit scene but very movements in the 360. Tossed me around a lot. No seatbelts, side doors are pretty cool, they are automatic unlike jaws and they are hinged about 2/3 the way down. They use magnetic locks to latch to the ride vehicle

Just want to thank you for all of your information and opinions on Kong. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

What seat in vehicle is best view?

 

[kearns96]

Hmmmm, further back and on the right side seemed to be the best, but I'll need to ride more to really determine that. Right side has AA bats, bug pit scene and Kong. Left only has cave scene only

No problem!! Always happy to contribute to the community. I know that if I wasn't a TM I'd be right here with you guys trying to learn as much as possible, so I want to help in any way I can.

Expect the write up around 1-2 am. I want to give my brain some time to collect it's thoughts and opinions haha

Can you still see everything clearly from each side?

All 4 of my vehicles were about 1/2-3-4 full so I don't know how full vehicles will be. That said, it definitely felt like I could see everything quite well, there were a few times where view was a bit limited but for a vast majority of the ride viewing was good

There are two female costumes and two male costumes. I have a picture of them that I'll post later

How many vehicles were they running that you could tell? And what is roughly the length of 360 scene and how long you see AA kong?

My my, ain't this fun!

Does anybody know yet what % of the attraction is just screens and what % is actual real sets and animatronics?

How does Kong AA interact with the ride vehicle

3 of the 6 scenes have screens

Anything obviously not working..?

Thanks for the info... hmm I think I can deal with that. Wish there was more real effects, but atleast half of it will impress me.

At least 2, maybe 3 but only ever saw 2 vehicles at a time. Based on my knowledge as an attendants I'd say this ride is probably going to run with 3 RVs a majority of the time. I can see how they could do 4 but it'd be very tight on spacing. Maybe only for peak season

360 scene is quite lengthy, felt about 90 seconds long, but I didn't have a timer running (which I meant to do). You see Kong for about 30 seconds, the vehicle crawls by him.

Is there anything worth seeing in the exterior queue?

No fire at all and of the 8 times I was on a motion base ( 4 rides, each with 2 MBs) 2 didn't work so they are definitely still working on those (we rode with techs a few times and they were eyeing the bases carefully). Other than that we got stuck once for about 5 mins right past Kong but that was it.
