Maybe birds in France will be more respectful. Or they could give him an umbrella. That should help.

As yet, I wouldn't get too excited about the interactive game. Imagineers over in Florida were experimenting last month with installing an interactive queueline experince for the Haunted Mansion. It ended up being a wooden board wit a number of riddles asking where you think the ghost's ashes are near the queueline. It ended up being an urn on thhe nearby lawn!  =D>

I do hope there are at least buttons or a form of technology involved in this interactive game though. Maybe the queline quests can activate the springs, or make something happen to the bones in the middle?

The Soarin' queue and now the new Space Mountain (WDW) queue games are actually pretty fun, they're nothing ground breaking, but they help keep the queue entertained. I'd love to see a stationary Toy Story Mania game on the screen with a few of the cannons mounted along the railings, but I doubt that'd happen.

Thinking about Toy Story Mania leads me on to another idea, why haven't they tried to work in one of the Mr Potato Head figures to the area? Imagine removing Buzz as an entrance, having a sort of 'tent' setup across the path, and then on a platform on the left a moving, talking, interacting Mr Potato Head.. that would complete the land! Even now if they put him somewhere in the area in a year or so, it'd be incredibly popular - Chessington put in a talking tree this year and it's proving to be a hit with the guests, imagine what a moving, talking and interacting character could do standing on top of an oversized paper cup, in a clearing amongst the bamboo! I am actually surprised that they didn't consider this..

Maybe he's to arrive in another year..
Plus there's still the massive Rex to arrive too, which should be interesting.

Its Rex!

Rex is already in place  :thumbs:

It might be the angle but Rex doesnt look as big as I expected. Still its all getting very exciting.
So how many of you guys will make it to soft openings or there in the first week? We'll arrive one week after its opened, so it'll all be old news by the time we get back! :lol:

Unfortunately me and a friend are going 27th-29th July - just a little bit early. Still, I take a school party there every March, so hopefully it'll be through all its teething problems by then!

Some new pics... more of the same really  :idea:

I just returned form a 4 day trip to DLRP. It was great, we eventually ended up spending most of our time in WDS!
I didn't see anyone post about it, but when I was there they were testing the RC coaster and slinky dog.

The RC coaster only went up once (one time forward, and once back) every time it went the first day. then the last 3 days it went back and forth 2 times before slowing down quickly in the station every time. They really tested it a lot. The car looks great too. It really did look like they made it to look magnified. it was bright green and really stood out against all the orange. Im almost positive it had four rows of seats and like 5 seats in every row. Plus we saw every day advance on the paintwork of the waiting area for RC coaster. looks really cool with all the beige stone like pattern.
The line is really a nice place to wait! they put up all of these extreme white fences (lego like) with red caution stripes. they hid the lines in the entire area pretty well too.

The slinky dog looked pretty boring to ride on. Like a normal county fair ride... the styling was pretty though. everything looked done in the area, just the finishing touches and testing.

Just thought some people would like to know!  :thumbs:

Thanks Aurium

Sounding good Slinky dog being boring sounds good to me! :lol:

I like the idea of them using Bamboo instead of plastic as they did in DHS for the honey I shrunk the Kids play area. However, im hoping they bulk them out at the base.... The tops look fine, but as most of the greenery is at the top, its not so efefctive at the base. And its the base that will be viewed the most seeing as its ground level.

The entrance under Buzz doesn't lool very big, or maybe its just how it looks in the photo.
