Springfield Expansion

[Accio Butterbeer]

Hopefully they are gonna do SOMETHING to make that area a bit nicer, without closing down MIB.

MIB is such a fun and popular ride. I don't see MIB leaving anytime soon. It better not!

 

[LHZY]

Yes, I love MIB but the area could use a little work.

Now where is the worst area in the park? MIB? Not the ride but just the area.

Kidszone then World Expo.

 

[Accio Butterbeer]

Do we know when they plan on painting the streets and putting the signs up in Springfield?

So Andy and I gave Duff's a test run. And I have to once again thank Andy for a delightful afternoon. Springfield looks great.

Hell yeah it was great time. Its nice to be able to kick back have a few beers and discuss projects going into the next decade Not that we did that....

 

[Hatetofly]

From today!

Excellent update, sir.

 

[USO92]

Fantastic pictures!!! Didnt you (HTF) mention a food truck across from the Simpson's ride?

 

[bobwadd]

Great update HtF, thanks. Have one for me next time you're there. :wave:

Even though I never got into The Simpsons I think this area looks amazing & I can't wait to see it in person next year! :thumbs:

Especially loving that doughnut/donut sundae... :drool: & The fact there's a decent seating area now, how lovely will it be to just sit there looking over the lagoon watching the world go by whilst eating your own body weight in food. :smiley:

The area looks great, with a few exceptions. I wonder what the markings on the sides of the tentacles for Twirl 'n Hurl are there for.

^ I believe that is were filler was used to smooth the seams and fill any dents. The areas will be painted to match. :thumbs:

I agree, just to smooth the surface.

I'm guessing nobody knows for sure when Kang & Kodos will be open?

 

[Hockeyman55]

Great photos HTF. One question though, how come some of those bricks are those 3d ones and the rest are normal?

Cancelled along with the airstream camper, still waiting to see if Homer's car and Apu's Firebird will appear outside of the Kwik E Mart and sell some merch out of the boot...

Excellent update, sir.

Thank You kindly!

I had one for you today Bob Feeling no pain earlier

Even though I never got into The Simpsons I think this area looks amazing & I can't wait to see it in person next year! :thumbs:

It turned out so freaking good and again not quite finished.

Especially loving that doughnut/donut sundae... :drool: & The fact there's a decent seating area now, how lovely will it be to just sit there looking over the lagoon watching the world go by whilst eating your own body weight in food. :smiley:

Or drink the day away while people watching

As Bob mentioned just smoothing out the connections

Bingo

I'm guessing nobody knows for sure when Kang & Kodos will be open?

I'm hearing no later than Wednesday as long as weather cooperates

Excellent photos HTF and a great eye for details some of us really want to see. Both brick executions SUCK! Bears no resemblance to the opposite side of the street. *spit, spit* both at UC and Nassal.

I wonder (probably like HTF did) what the screwed patch is on the back of the founder bronze. Does he contain special lights or something?

Otherwise, I look at the pictures of this and actually hum the theme song as it fits the look and feel so well.

Thanks Hatetofly. I really wanted to see pictures that captured the new stuff with the restaurants and you made it happen. I wanted to see how everything fits in. Great stuff!
