Ah, okay. So then this is similar in practice to their commercial-esque magic shows.

The magic shows usually run in both parks daily.

Always been there as far as I know. It's right across from Fire Eaters.

Yes, it is.

Also, I hand't seen the shows so frequently up until the past six months or so. Maybe I'm not so vigilant, but I first saw them in IOA, then back at the studios, and then back and forth. (Sorry if this is worded strangely.)

Is the magic Theater Magic shop/show still in USF? I have never been aware of a similar shop in IOA. Only thing I have seen is the guy hawking the floating bill trick in POE, and that was back in 2004.

Yes, that's the show I'm speaking of. I first saw it in IOA by the Mystic Fountain, and since then, have seen it flip-flop between the two parks. When in USF, it's located in Hollywood, across from the Horror Makeup Show.

I have never seen it closed at either park. Except earlier in the day at USF.

Looks like a fatigue crack was developing/developed and they had to repair it.

A few general Uni updates courtesy of some Tweeters.


From ‏@OrlandoInformer:

"The Blues Brothers drive through Production Central now - that's new (@ Production Central)"

There are new star decals on the decorative parts of the barges. Also, "Glad to see the barge near Lombard's finally got its lettering on both sides."

ib1ACWLIGwewE2.jpg


Prep for the new Character Dining Experience at La Bamba. "Looks like they're checking if the ovens still fire (@ Cafe La Bamba)"

igQTMFeMWi8ve.jpg



From @attractions

Are these new costumes/characters? "Movie ushers @ Universal Studios Florida"

ibypakSBgHNCnY.jpg


"Construction continues on the new Spongebob store at Universal Studios"

The Lorax film photo op has moved out so K-Stew could move in. "I spotted Snow White at Universal Studios (Sort of)"

I figured I'd put this here since it's miscellaneous - since the Lorax poster has been replaced, does this mean the Lorax character is gone, too? I'm coming with some friends Memorial Day weekend and one of them absolutely adores the Lorax and wants to see him. Any word on how long he'll be around?

The Lorax was at the parks today greeting guests as usual. The movie just came out, the home video release will happen shortly, and there's the fact that the Seuss is represented in theme park form at IOA. So I would venture to say that it is highly unlikely that Uni would take the Lorax off of their slate of walkaround characters. :thumbs:

Heck, even Scooby and Shaggy were chillin' at USF today!

UOR has increased their characters it seems. Don't see Lorax going anywhere anytime soon. In fact, only a matter of timebeforehe joins Superstar Parade IMO.
