There's a Roadrunner weather vane on one of the buildings in WWF's town scene - only noticed it myself last year. There's a ton of props from the old Harry Potter exhibits still around MW. The large suit of armour at the entrance to Scooby Doo is one of the Wizard Chess Pieces. Aragog the Spider can be found in the Disco Room. All the Spiders in the Scooby Doo store.

Never done a Woodie before, so Leviathan has me the most hyped! I think it will end up being the best of the three too... though Steel Taipan's Spinning Gondola has crazy potential.

Storm Coaster ran at night during Spooky Nights, even when it was dark. I wonder why it might be different for Carnivale? Edit: Oh, it's closed from Feb 1st. That explains it.

That actually looks pretty good! Very World of Colour esc.

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing Looks like some of the launch track is in there too!

Can confirm it was theming for the Giant Drop. There used to be non-skeletal Mammoth head in that area too!

GL was running this evening. Scooby was "interesting". Pretty much all of the effects in the Ghost Train section were down- worst state I've ever seen the ride in since becoming Next Generation. Granted it was one of the last trains of the day, but still...

Finally got to go tonight! Enjoyed it overall, especially the parade - though some of the sections were pretty dark. Could barely see the Batmobile with Batman. Superman Escape was running two trains which was awesome to see, plus the water effect on the stairs was working. Rivals was stuck on the lifthill when I arrived. The train was empty - would have been interesting to watch an evacuation if there was one. 😋

That was just a concept, confirmed not to be for any rides. They show it off in this video from Iappa at the start: They alao talk about Levvy at 2:20. Apparently the back of the train's going to be themed too!

Somebody pinch me!

Update from today. Also saw a staff member taking some pictures of Arkam's entrance on their mobile - take that for what you will.

Here's a couple of basic phone pics I took today. The Flowrider/Sidewinder area was also borded off, but easy enough for a cheeky slip through as shown above!

I really miss the Harry Potter Movie Magic Experience. From what I remember it was quite well themed for the time and quite fun (especially if you had a good tour guide). Ride-wise I'll have to echo the sentiments toward Bermuda Triangle Looney Tunes River Ride!

Check out the "Jungle Trailblazer" woodies they have in China. I believe it will be similar in style to them.

I have extremely vague memories of riding it as a kiddo. I remember it being indoors and having a Dinosaur section (pretty sure the baby Triceratops they stuck in the Log Flume was from this) and that's pretty much it. I think the entrance may have been where the Madagascar Coaster is now? I remember enjoying it and being confused why it wasn't there on future visits.
