I would say they might put them in Citywalk, but they already have crappy carnival games there...maybe they'll just remove them entirely and not put them somewhere else? (I can dream)

Pretty sure all the carnival games are gone from CityWalk, no? Isn't that where the new decks/merch stands are.

Not a lot of room on the Fear Factor plot for something like that. The ride seems pretty expansive from the concept art. I think the only place that could go would be between Simpsons and MIB.

Looking at Google Maps and recalling as best I can how much land was cleared and being prepped, it extended down to where the Dragons maintenance path cuts under Ice, maybe a little closer to the fortune teller/psychic tent. I could see them removing the games buildings and moving the Hogsmeade arch/entrance down the path to just before the small domed building across from the current games. That would allow the line and station for the Hogwarts Express at that end to be inside of Hogsmeade without as much issue (both thematically and physically). The current exit path on that side for Sinbad would end right where the psychic tent is right now in that scenario, maintaining one path into Hogsmeade on that end.

In the released concept art for Universal Studios Russia, there is an attraction that appears to use the Test Track/Radiator Springs Racers technology and ride vehicles. Many have deduced that this would be a Fast & Furious attraction since it is Universal's popular car racing franchise.

It is the rightmost attraction depicted below:

Just to clear up some of the previous coaster discussion: Th13teen was manufactured by Intamin, Verbolten was by Zierer (a relative newcomer to that game).

The coaster train leaked on Leap Day looks Premier or Gerstlauer. The description leaked by ThemeParkInsider seems like Intamin or Premier. This is just a hunch, but instead of a launch or chain lift, I'd like to see an elevator lift on the Gringotts coaster.

Is it far-fetched to think that Intamin will do Hogwarts Express and Gringotts coaster? I'd love for Universal to develop a relationship with the company. They're quality.

Fear Factort Live could easily be converted to some kind of stage show for Potter, but I am unclear how they work it into the London theme.

God I hope not. A Potter stage show would be all kinds of terrible.

I would take absolutely ANY option for FFL besides what it is now. bulldozing it down and just leaving and empty barren landscape would be an improvement... Hey guess what my least favorite attraction in the whole world is! LOL

They could just bump Gringotts out that direction and have some facade. I'd rather have the coaster be 10 seconds longer than have a Potter stage show :lol:

Potter is big enough already and doesn't need the stage area also.

Save the FFL plot for Bond. Perfect tie-in with London.
