[darkridelover]

I'll add something! A bunch of people wearing shirts from Creature Technology have been around the Kong site this week. Went to their website and saw some awesome things!

That's been there for a LONG time. We've talked about it a few times in this thread. :thumbsup:

Yeah, the crates full of him have been on site for couple of weeks or so... all very exciting. So, a bunch of Aussies running around, hm?

Check out the Tim Tracker Grinchmas vlog for a good view of skull island.

Would this be their first true theme park installation? Their work on Walking with Dinosaurs and the HTTYD arena show is great, and the T-Rex for the Jurassic World exhibit looks quality too.

^ It's their first time working with Universal Creative. I don't believe they have worked with Disney either, but I could be wrong.

What is interesting is that UC doesn't always come up with these esoteric vendors. Often, UC tasks one of their top vendors (like Oceaneering) with coming up with various solutions from all over and anywhere in the world. UC then chooses what they prefer.

Just looking at their other work, the quality of this thing is going to be outstanding!!!

Off topic, but man I wish UOR could get a smaller version of that How to Train Your Dragon show. Imagine that replacing Sindbad or something? Man, that'd be awesome.

Has Universal ever created anything using that IP?

They have not. Which is a travesty. I was hoping it would replace ET, or even Ptyradon Flyers. Something, please.

No, but it'd be a great get

Is that Kong's head on the right side?!

 

[Teebin]

Oh goodness kids, just search King Kong show Austrailia! Ready to be amazed?



This is why they got the job...

Kong will make the Yeti look like something some Junior High kids did for a class project. And I bet it doesn't break. :thumbsup:

Kong is on another level.. He will be the true King...

 

[Miketheboss]

I dont think this will be as great some are making it out to be. The show building isnt so big compared to the vehicles.

Creature Technology's does look awsome. I have dreamed of a JP T-Rex built for a parade like the one from their Walking With Dinosaurs show. It could be done like the USJ parade with a baby T-Rex in a cage in the back of a Jeep. With that in mind, I think the T-Rex for the JW exhibition looks a bit off model, like they might have reused the molds from Walking With Dinosaurs. I can't wait to see what they are doing for Kong though. Are they doing all the figures for the attraction?

You mean, it will get even more strobo lights than the Yeti?
