Springfield Expansion

[Jwhee]

They need to have Clancy Wiggum running around!!!!!!!
- do you think there will actually be a crashed cop car and water spraying? That would be pretty cool...

Finally announced!!

 

[badlactose]

I know, but all that waterfront brickwork? And in the press release it talks about a Flying Dutchman restaurant/stands and a Luigi's Pizza restaurant/stand. When will they start those? Or are they both just stands?

I believe The Flying Dutchman and Luigi's will be inside the former IFF building itself. HTF explained it in that write-up he did a while back (I think).

I doubt they would be statues.

They aren't walk around characters. Press release says the only new characters will be Krusty and Sideshow Bob.

I believe Hate said they would.

Yes.

Area looks fantastic! My only gripe is the Moes sign. Doesn't look right at all.

 

[Plush_collector]

Concept art is beautiful so is universal finally becoming a complete park/resort!!

 

[Jwhee]

With World Expo pretty much gone, do you think they will do something with MIB and fear factor with theming?

 

[JungleSkip]

Something I noticed on the high res art work, and it looks like the spinner cars will spin as well as do the normal Dumbo up/down

 

[General Specific]

I doubt they would be statues.

Chief Wiggum and Duffman look noticeably different than the costumed characters.

Absolutely love all the brick work, it will really make blend in the area to the waterfront proper.

The place will look way more organic once all the trees/tables etc. go in. IFF can definitely open in a month, but the Duff Garden side of things really needs to pick up the pace!

Does anyone have a link to that...I'm still relatively new.

 

[badlactose]

I can't wait to ride Kang and Kodos at night. The whole area will look extra pretty and sparkly then

I love how you read this and everything he says is in the concept art.

Very pleased with the concept art; if it's half as good as that, I'll be impressed. The brickwork along the waterfront to partition the CineSpec VIP viewing areas is very smart and aesthetically pleasing. Duffworks looks great. The new ride looks like a blast (and I hope Skip is right in that the vehicles spin - it'd lend more credence to the name!) I'm actually also really happy we're getting not one, but TWO new characters - Krusty & Sideshow Bob! They'll make great additions.

I could be wrong, but on the art work it definitely looks like people are all facing different ways as they go around the ride.
