I think the US Blvd parking entrance may be YMMV during early access, as my group took it that morning and we got sent to Jurassic Parking as a pleasant surprise. Otherwise, yeah, I'd take UH Drive if you wanna get Jurassic Parking, especially since you're not going for EA anyway (though we've never taken that entrance before for parking since from my area, US Blvd is the closest. Had no idea you can instantly get Jurassic Parking that way).

I got told the same thing about final sales (no deliberate mishearings or anything) in 1-UP Factory when I bought a power-up band for a friend ahead of our visit.

So, does that mean that I don't have a choice of which Parking Garage that I get sent to when I drive there?

The Frankenstein Parking Garage entrance is no where near the Jurassic Park or ET Parking Garage. If I Google Map it, the route to take to the Frankenstein Parking Garage is different. When I drive to Universal Studios, is it that there is only 1 entrance to get to the Parking Garages and then it will take me to wherever Universal Studios decides to route me for the Garage?

There's two, the CityWalk entrance on Universal Studios Blvd, and the other entrance is on Universal Hollywood Drive, which you can get to from Lankershim Blvd. I'm not sure if you can directly enter Frankenstein parking from that same path, but if you can I get the feeling you'll have to pay the preferred parking price if you want to park there.

In simpler terms, I would take Universal Hollywood Drive if you want Jurassic Parking, which is still relatively close. I've never taken that path because I had no idea it supposedly sends you there automatically. You're more likely to get sent to ET or Curious George if you take Universal Studios Blvd.

^What BreifCasey said. Generally, no, you don't get a choice of which parking lot. But 95% of the time if you enter from Universal Hollywood Drive, you'll be sent to Jurassic Parking. But they also don't have as many parking booths or attendants.

Entering from Universal Studios Blvd 95% of the time will get you ET or CG, but they also usually have more parking booths open, especially in the morning.

Frankenstien parking, nowadays, is only for Preferred Parking... and if you decide to opt for that, at the Universal Hollywood Drive entrance, they just have you U-turn and head back for it with a pass. It's weird, but that's what they do. From Universal Studios Drive, they'll direct you to it.

One additional thing to note... should you want to leave the park and return later the same day, just show your pass from the morning and you don't have to repay. There's some good food off-property (Spitz, Little Toni's, Rodini Park, Miceli's--where the wait staff sings from time to time)

I'm doing my google map route from the hotel that I am staying at in Glendale. If I take the route to go to the Guest Drop off ( not planning to go there, but its near the Frankenstein Garage ), the route will take me through the Lankershim Blvd Route and then onto Universal Hollywood Drive.

If I use Google maps to map out the route to go to the Jurassic Park Garage directly, it will take me through Barham Blvd and then onto Universal Studios Drive....which doesn't appear to be the route that I want to go.

What I don't understand is that when I look at the location of the Jurassic Park Garage, it is right next to the ET Parking Garage. I guess I will take the Lankershim Blvd route to Universtal Hollywood Blvd to see where that takes me.

Sorry if this posted somewhere already, but what times does Toad appear for the meet and greet?

According to the article posted around when he made his debut, around 2PM, but I don't know the intervals, as I haven't been to the park recently (mainly because of this infernal heat we've been facing here in SoCal lately >_>) .

Also, after checking, I'm surprised they haven't added a stamp for meeting Toad yet. Isn't there one in Japan's version?

Jurassic Parking has a valet entrance across from ET parking, but naturally that will cost some money. Normally you're sent to a two different entrances that are on the way from Universal Hollywood drive. Jurassic Parking has 3 pathways into CityWalk after you park, with the closest one to the park being underneath the dome where Johnny Rockets, Jamba Juice, Bubba Gump, etc are. They're definitely a shorter walk than Curious George or ET, as I know at least one of those other two has you taking a walkway even after you take the elevators to where you need to go.

Instead of getting the DK Mine Cart Coaster, they should instead give Hollywood another exclusive element/attraction. I feel like a Luigi's Mansion atrraction would be nice, as Hollywood lacks a year-round spook.

I'm down, if space is an issue

I will settle for a Minions Moving Pathway attraction.
I also think LM, is a perfect IP for the band games with the ghosts.

Luigi’s Mansion is land worthy, in my opinion. Or mini land. It’d need more space than DK imo.

If you’re gonna make a Luigi’s Mansion ride, you gotta do it right. Make it a Symbolica-style trackless dark ride with a shooting aspect.

If anything happens, I can guarantee it will be in the vein of Villain-Con.

As long as it has more physical details around the screens then I'm very much for this

Anything Nintendo, is going to need to eat people or it will have insane lines like Mario Kart.

I would be happy with a Luigi's Mansion Villain-Con presuming Nintendo mandates it has the same level of quality as all the other Nintendo additions.

Are these actual rumors or is this just spitballing? The spoilered text got me confused.
