Universal's Epic Universe Construction Thread

[Loki]

Lots more trees going in around the dueling coaster. And good progress on the flying flat ride towers for HTTYD

The weenie for the front of the Hub Coaster really starting to come together now.

I think this is just for like a border at the lower level near the lobby. I doubt they’ll be doing tiny tiles over the entire thing from just a time/manpower perspective

Yeah, that makes more sense. Couldn’t imagine how long it would take to do the whole hotel in single tiles.

I’m very intrigued to see what this will look like in its final form. Fascinating to watch

 

[jarmor]

Right now it's looking like a Coch 'n Rings.

Starfall Racers I think will give Velocicoaster a run for its money.

They're just a bit too similar IMO.

 

[JungleSkip]

I have doubts that Mack can make a ride as good as VELOCICOASTER.

It’ll be a good ride, but VC is like a Top 10 coaster in the world.

My photo didn't come out great, but "window washer cars" installing silver paneling along the narrow side and Universal Blvd-facing sides of the first hotel. Closest I could describe it is Soarin' hallways, but shinier, more elegant. Looks great.

Even without any sort of tile/paneling, the windows look amazing at sunset. It's a striking building. Older friend saw it last week, had no idea they were building a theme park but asked "what is that?!?"

The tiles are really starting to come together.

 

[JungleSkip]

Wow they might actually be covering the whole thing in tiny panels.

That is going to look crazy

 

[srbmarc]

I wonder if there's an actual order to those tiles or if the installer is putting them in randomly.

 

[Evan]

The tiles are really starting to come together.

 

[GAcoaster]

Wow, this is a cool detail being added to the lobby/entrance:

 

[Nico]

I’m not sure how much this has been talked about. But we have vertical construction on a new ride.

 

[GAcoaster]

Yeah, I think by the time Bio posts the next batch they'll both have the arms installed and maybe even the seating...

 

[Doug A.]

The tiles are really starting to come together.

I can’t unsee them as little PEZ candies. Very cool effect and interested to see the final result.
