Springfield Expansion

[badlactose]

I think it is great how they bring the brick look to life. He is a shot I took on Thursday compared to one I took on Friday:

I love the look of the brickwork. The waterfront area will look pretty amazing when they're through. I wonder if they're planning on putting anything inside those false windows?

I tried to tell people not to worry about fake bricks

We never got a tentative opening on anything in this expansion. This is another prime example of something flying up and people saying "NOT SOON ENOUGH!" This project had an even shorter time frame than Transformers. I'm aware that TF is an E-Ticket attraction, but in comparison it took almost three years to get New Fantasyland and this really brings a lot of what New Fantasyland brought to the table. An attraction, highly themed eateries, added interactive and M&G, and a tavern to top it off.

But I thought they were reserving all their Gatorade bottles for Gringotts.

Universal built a massive e-ticket in 11 months... I think they can build a bar in 4 days :thumbs:

I honestly believe all of this will not be open come the 20th. I really wish it was and maybe it will be but I certainly cannot see Uni opening a ride that has never even been cycled regardless if it has been off site. It certainly would not be prudent for them to do so. Now, they could certainly open Duff Gardens and maybe get the rest of Springfield (not the waterfront) open on the 20th just to rake in some dough but I highly doubt they will have everything up and operational by Thursday.

So we get the escaped convict version of Sideshow Bob?

Thanks for the assist with the image BJ. Bloody technology...

Krusty is nice, but not really feeling Sideshow Bob yet. He just seems a bit off.

 

[UNIrd]

He looks awesome!

Nevermind lol

I'm curious to see how big that statue is going to be. It would be neat to get a rather large one like the concept art suggests.

My guess is about this big:

I hope they can at least double that height.

That's what is most canon with The Simpsons ride.

 

[Disneyhead]

I'm hoping huge too. But I can see going with a smaller "Bob's Big Boy" sized one for photo ops.

Why are his eyes looking down, only thing that bothers me
