bengalsguy23 Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 I wonder what they are planning on doing with that pile of dirt to the left as you walk into area 72. Hopefully some theming. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Are there anyone there that would be able to test it? I thought staff aren't able to be there right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still maintain they are testing them during the late day sun as its so bright off that lift it would be very difficult to tell. I dont think the show lights come on till we are at Media day or passholder day. Media day was scheduled to start at 5am Thursday, plenty dark enough to wow the attendees. 15 minutes ago, Hawaiian Coasters 325 said: Are there anyone there that would be able to test it?

I drove by the park late afternoon and didn't see any cars the by the offices today, but they could have been there earlier in the day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUN&ONLY! Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Heightened_Imagery posted a detailed photo of The Vortex site. It appears that some parts of the plot may have been leveled off, but I don’t know if all of it is going to be leveled off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only will they open late or not at all, but going to them charge for lockers. Hopefully be free for pass holders. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the looks of it, there is still quite a ways to go. Most of the theming will probably be placed and installed within 2-3 weeks of opening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s likely supposed to tie in with the news video they show in the Flight of Fear hangar. Having the van closer to Flight of Fear than Orion allows guests to make that connection between the outside and inside of the hangar. It’s better visual storytelling IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIguy2004 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Oh. That is understandable. Do you think they will still have that blue one by the Orion entrance? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
