Springfield

[William]

Awesome! Super glad to see they're fixing the pavement to make a nice transition between Springfield and Krustyland.

It looks like the Nuclear Power Plant isn't the only building to get a new paint job. Lard Lad Donuts is orange now..?

Same color as Orlando william for.lard lads

Great pictures JPLA! I love that they're retouching the Krustyland pavement, I think it's the fourth time they're doing it since the ride opened. I love how it looks when it pops! I was worried they were gonna leave it all grey for Springfield and yet let the swirls remain.

I'm curious if we'll receive any ground level props or photo opps, like in Orlando. Hard to imagine there would be room for Wiggum's car and the different characters. Maybe all of our characters will be scale models in the facades? Either way, it'll be nice to see!

(Personally, I'm not a fan of the Wiggum static statue. It just feels weird having him be static, but then also have other walk around Simpsons characters. It'd be fun if they introduced more walk around characters)

Nvm..

Wow, the one thing I hoped they wouldn't change was the Lard Lad building color... the light blue really stood out, plus the orange doesn't really look good next to Krusty Burger being orange as well.... Guess I'll have to wait for the finished product to see how this all turns out.

Everything looks AMAZING. So looking forward to this opening already.

Lard Lad is blue in the show, but orange in the concept art. Not quite sure why they went with that color.

 

[Jon Fu]

Here's to hoping that Universal learned their lesson..!

Don't worry, they have.

 

[JPLA]

Lard Lad facade is still blue.

Duff's brick is getting it's red color.

Move pavement is painted. 

 

[chris.g]

I sincerely hope Lard Lad stays blue, and that the orange is just a transition.

Great photos! Also, little off-topic but you happen to have any photos of the shrek line?

Love love love that they repainted the swirly pavement. Really brightens up and refreshes the area.

Where is all of the seating going to go for Luigis and Duff Gardens? Will they use that area where there is that blue cover that is for the special effects extended queue??Before there was way to much seating for restaurants around the simpsns ride and now it seems to like there is too little amount of seating.

 

[William]

Sort of odd that they cut the Krustyland flooring off right after the Kwik-E-Mart now. Not too long ago, it looked like they wanted to do the opposite to mark the Kwik-E-Mart as part of Springfield. Oh, well.

There will probably be limited seating in the area between the Brewery and Bumblebee Man's Taco Truck. Not sure if the blue SES canopy will be utilized for the show once again or repurposed for Springfield.

Maybe Krusty opened up his own franchised Kwik-E-Mart next to Krustyland! Nothing screams theme park vacation like overpriced convenience store! That convenience comes at a price!

Lard Lad was blue already, why in the WORLD did they just repaint it orange like Orlando's?

Lard Lad was never that color in Orlando. It's maroon. 

 

[JPLA]

Uh oh, Lard Lad IS going orange.  With such massive project and so many things planned to the inch, it's odd to me that colors are (seemingly) arbitrarily changed.  Here's Android signage, too.

Here's more Duff's brick getting painted. 

Oh, and here's some color going on this new storefront.

 

[Jon Fu]

^ Speaker color usually indicates the building's final paint scheme. I'd be curious if Lard Lad uses two colors instead of one coat of orange.

 

[Alexshow.]

Wouldn't be surprised if this becomes the case for Lard Lads.
