That's likely backstage entry until the expansion occurs.
That's a weird place for backstage entrance (not talking about the DK entrance itself, I'm talking about the thing to the right of it)

Oh my b, I see that you mean the entrance beneath the Pokey.That's a weird place for backstage entrance (not talking about the DK entrance itself, I'm talking about the thing to the right of it)

The DK Expansion preview centerYep. Anybody know what that is? Maybe another entrance to the 'Factory'? Maybe a long exit?
The DK Expansion preview center
Yep. Very short too.
Also, something to note. There's something near the DK entrance. There's some sort of opening visible above the Yoshi bridge.

Is this still the same layout as SLOP at Universal Hollywood? Just the outdoor version?
Yup, it’s the land’s main gift shop.I wonder what's in that building labeled Factory...
Is that a Meet & Greet/Photo Op stage in the middle of the Courtyard and is it permanent? It seems to be taking up a lot of valuable space. Also it seems as there are only 2 large sets of scaffolding (Bowsers facade and DK entrance) left.
True but there are 3 levels here and at least 2 levels that have inside entertainment, food and shops. If you put this 3 levels pie next to each other the land is quite a considerable size.My only concern, and from the beginning, is the size. It looks TIGHT. So does Diagon though, so ill see how this plays out. Gotta hope with Mario Kart, the gaming, Yoshi, dining, and shop (shops?) that this is able to spread the crowds out. While id impinge the queues for Yoshi and MK are large, if they ever overflow the building and crowd into the land its going to be really tough to navigate imo. Im sure these are all factors they have thought of however, I mean we all are aware that the MK queue can hold tons of people so thats good.
Other than that, it looks literally perfect. Having an awful day so this was just what I needed!
Very true, I guess I'm more worried about lines heading into the courtyards at all. It'll be fine as I remember I had the same worry about Diagon. I never travel during peak times anyways so for myself this isn't really a major concern, but certainly noteworthy.True but there are 3 levels here and at least 2 levels that have inside entertainment, food and shops.

Anyway, this looks amazing and note to myself to put on shades to survive all those bright colors.

It all helps with immersion, honestly. Im thinking with how much their is to do, even with the small-ish space that they'll be fine. Crowds should spread evenly id hopeMy thoughts too, it does look tight. However, I wonder if so because they just didn't have as much room to work with?
Maybe Epic Universe may have a bit more room? Who knows. But I guess once we're inside and walking around it won't look so congested. So freaking excited!!
Epic Universe will be the exact same land but with Donkey Kong's area added.My thoughts too, it does look tight. However, I wonder if so because they just didn't have as much room to work with?

thats my thinking too, will work like Diagon. My hope at least haha but its certainly noteworthy with these aerials. The main concern is the meet and greet courtyard area, if queues for that get long that'll cause some congestion down there but hopefully its nothing crazy.Epic Universe will be the exact same land but with Donkey Kong's area added.
My guess is this won't feel any more packed than Diagon Alley does. The multiple levels will help as well.

Question is - does DK open at EU or at USJ first? My money is 100% on USJ.
