Thanks HTF for the pictures, Springfield is coming together more and more every day :thumbs:

It's hard to believe the amount of work they've put into this single park since i've been to the park nearly one year ago. I've never seen a themepark work this hard and this fast to make amazing attractions for all of us to enjoy. I cant wait to go back in May of 2014 for my graduation trip!!!

May is going to amazing, you will see this entire land really take shape over the course of about 35-40 days.

Thank you kindly Drew. I dedicate this update to you as I know your still hurting from the Revis situation. When the Jags lost Tony Boselli is about the only thing I can think of that stings that bad.

Btw clue be posted in the stash

What the heck is that facade?!?! :bang: LOL!

Thanks for the update, HTF! Great pics! :thumbs:

I stand by my previous guess that it will be Cletus's Fried Chicken. With the new overhang it even kinda looks like his house:

I think your right manx. Looks like the overhang with a sign on top

It'd be great if they did a Living Character Initiative Moe behind the bad.

As long as they don't do something as simple/annoying as the booths in the interior queue for the Simpsons, I'll be okay with it.

I think he means fully interactive. That way we could actually talk to Moe kind of like Donkey..... only cooler.

What I'm picturing is like the interactive, walk-around Shrek actor they used to have, or the Mr. Burns and Mr. Smithers characters in the 2000 Bill & Ted show. I wish I could find the picture of my now-wife and me w/ Shrek or my VHS-C recording of the B&T show to illustrate, but they were pretty impressive.

:look:

Haha!

I believe that there is a decent fried chicken venue at USH. So This makes sense as there is already a company recipe for it. That, and it's not really something offered in the parks at the moment.

Just my two cents...

I took a few photos today:

Thanks for the pics, s8film40! :thumbs: So now that square up top is a window... Interesting... It deviates a bit from the look of Cletus' house, but that definitely still sounds like the best guess, especially after the :look: look of approval

Other details:

Moes has doors now.

Androids has a brick texture/facade applied.

I don't think what you said is a window is a window at all. Look closely at the triangle framework and you will see an identical piece inserted perpendicularly in the middle of it:

Which leads me to believe whatever it is called, the facade will still incorporate the structure that was the top part of the Kentucky Fried Panda:

 

[Felipe]

Hmm... Good catch. I didn't notice that middle piece. This is so perplexing dammit...

Do you think this and transformers will have separate openings or a kind of joint launch?

Parks don't usually do a whole lot of hoopla over new restaurants, and the ride isn't huge, so I would assume they will fold it into the same press event. It'll stand on it's own in marketing material though.

Joint launch is what I'm hearing
