Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift coaster (USH) - Opening 2026

[Wesker69]

Two things related to the Fast & Furious 25th anniversary....

1 - PUMA has an overpriced merch collab. If you're needing something fancy for when this coaster opens

2 - The picture cars from the franchise have left the Universal backlot for a 25th anniversary legacy museum exhibit in downtown LA opening next Saturday (March 14th)

Universal will definitely be pushing Fast & Furious hype this summer. Vroom-vroom

The Petersen is a great museum, so if you’re looking for an excuse…

I was told Tristan Eaton was working on a new merch collab. Initially I thought, YAY MORE UNIVERSAL MONSTERS!

....But since he did the murals for the coaster, I wonder if we'll see merch with these murals designs

The moment this soft opens, I'm dropping whatever I'm doing to get to the park. Work? Screw it. Getting married? I'll be back in a few hours. Bleeding out in the street? Shove some napkins in the wound, I'm good.

Also, this might be the smiliest, happiest car I've ever seen:

90s kitsch is back!

Hate to say it, but I think that was the most overhyped underwhelming unveiling ever... probably doesn't help that we saw the Charger ride vehicle last year.

pretty sure he zebra wraps were mostly to protect the trains from the on-going construction dust/debris rather than keeping the finished product hidden.

The trains look nice, but definitely not a fan of the wall behind them.

With all due respect, the coaster is opening in summer :crying emoji apparently they aren't allowed:. They 100% should have done this reveal closer to the opening day but I have a feeling it was to reassure the fans that the coaster is actually on track

An Update on the covering for the stairs on the top escalator

 

[Wesker69]

Wonderful. The stairs are covered by cardboard
