Universal Orlando Resort Misc Refurbs

[JungleSkip]

Some general UOR updates from AmusementPics......

These have been installed in the area across from the entrance to KidZone:

(Anyone know what these structures are for? HHN? A M&G? Generic food stands?)

I have to assume these are for meet and greets. They've been trying to up their M&G game, and these look perfect for that.

The Lost Continent statue after receiving some repainting work:

Not a fan of the sign on the base. It looks a little cartoony. Still, it's nice to see the statue get some love.

I saw this in MSHI. Any idea what it is?

I saw that a few weeks back too, I think it's just an electrical fuse box. Granted I have no idea and I'm just guessing.

Note, it is locked.

It's just a strange place for a fuse box. In the middle of the sidewalk next to a bench? And the paint scheme?

Ill throw in a guess. Maybe there is a wifi hotspot in there and there are others we havent noticed yet?

Dee Snider and Penn Jillette were on the Apprentice last season. Why would they be filming for it now?

I know this because my friend is obsessed with the apprentice and Dee Snider and he keeps sending me stuff about it, now I beat him to some information. Its The Celebrity Apprentice All Stars.

It looks like the 'Foursquare' logo.

They were filming in Studios today. It looked like a Mercedes commercial or something.

Colors are off but yes, a resemblance to the foursquare logo is noticeable

I don't think they're connected, just a coincidence.

Does anybody know where that Jaws thing is?

On the new motorcycle prop in Port of Entry on the Suess side :thumbs:

Looks like it's on the front of the side car?

I've never visited the parks during the holidays, but is it normal for all of these places to receive holiday decorations? From what I've seen in the past, I thought that the decorating was generally limited to USF and Grinchmas. If these decorations are new, then it's great to see Universal doing a little more for the holidays.


If not.... please move along.

Think I took this last week, but sails have been installed in POE over the clothing store. Dont know if they were up before and brought down for a while, or if they are brand new.

They all always get Christmas ornaments. POE just tends to get the most.
