Lard and the other bronze statue must have been created by Adirondack. Any hint of that back stage? It must be fine working for Adirondack... such a beautiful setting for its studios.

So, it proves that Lard Lad is in fact as big as the concept art would have you believe. A few here questioned that.

Whoever did the sculpting of the large figures (Lard Lad, Bumblebee Man, Jebediah, Kodos) should be given a medal, or at least a cuddle. They are spot on three dimensional renditions of two dimensional characters, which is a difficult feat to accomplish.

This addition looks more and more beautiful every day. I can't wait to see it on Friday!

Everything looks about ready, Lard Lad needs his donut. I'm not sure if they plan on having Wiggum and Duff Man statues outside like as seen in the concept art. But if they plan to, they could open everything else first on Friday too. Things look good for an opening any day now though IMO.

Wow this really looks amazing. Better than I could have imagined. I am impressed. Can't wait to see the finished product in person later this month!
