I mentioned it before when the map was released but here isthe official announcement for the upgrade to the K-Pop Hologram attraction, now called Live Hologram Theater:

^I'd add Surf Coaster at Yokohama to that list. It was my first ever Togo so I was expecting the worst but it was a lot of fun. Fujiyama as my second was kind of meh though, but maybe that's because it was the last I did out of Fuji's big 4.

You must be mistaken, I have yet to see a single post of Guy's that wasn't 100% true.

I feel like if it's being compared, it would be more a successor to Cheetah Hunt than Maverick. ^With it being a multi launch coaster i'd agree with that, although it is listed as a Blitz on RCDB, same as Maverick Yea and though I'd trust the actual manufacturers word over RCDB, if we were to go by that site, Cheetah Hunt is also listed as a "Blitz coaster" according to them. I think Sneaky above described it best, they are basically the same thing, just I still feel if we were to call this a "successor" to anything it would be the more family friendly Cheetah Hunt than comparing it to something as intense as Maverick. Or to quote TPR's Atlantis POV: Maverick was definitely supposed to be an aquatrax.

I suppose for safety conscious Japan this was inevitable but considering how much of the area this coaster zooms over, that must be a lot of net: Source

I feel like if it's being compared, it would be more a successor to Cheetah Hunt than Maverick.

I've seen and tried a PB&J burger here in Korea, had a peanut butter coffee near the airbase once, but it was a trial and never saw it back on the menu.

I've only been on one Fabbri Spinner at Botton's Pleasure Beach and I really wasn't a fan of it, but I think it was one of the first built so hopefully they've improved since then. Kind of like the reverchon one's you see but felt a little rougher.

^Couldn't have asked for a better 50th update!

Love the music that they've been using in the trailers, I'm assuming it's the game theme as well. Simple but effective.

I think there may be some English tour-sites that you can use to book the pass if you're worried about language, there's definitely ones in Korean that do that my co-teachers have used. I'd book soon, like Elissa said they can run out before the park even opens and the 7 pass is now branched 3 ways, assuming you are going for Flying Dinosaur with the others going to Space Fantasy VR edition and Backdrop.

I feel like with the Iron Man ride being their version of Star Tours, it's more likely that HKDL would be home to a Marvel Land before a Star Wars Land.

^ I know that tends to be the signature shot for Kumba but wow that photo is THE signature shot, beautiful.

I don't think I'll ever be one of those people who cares enough to claim the first or last ride on anything but I would love to see the park try a raffle style for front seats on a new coaster one time so people who are genuine fans of the park with all sorts of income could enter: $1 enters your name once, $500 500 times etc. winners get admission included, just because 1) I bet there are genuinely people who would want to at least try and get that first ride in their home park and more importantly 2) wouldn't that style probably raise more money?

^ Thanks, checking out the actual tree Hex is based on was always on my to-do list before I left for Korea but I never got around to it.

Is it named that because it's close to the actual tree or just because of Alton Towers?

The news coverage on Pandas is slowly reaching Anchorman style levels of reporting as we get closer to opening day: Source Edit: Bonus adorable Panda footage [fbvideonew] [/fbvideonew]

My Korean Samsung Gamer Yellow has held up pretty well so far but I think this one might finally be the killer game that won't run too fast. NL2 managed but I think once a park gets packed full of rides I'd need the graphics setting pretty low.

This is where my nerdiness and my time playing RCT as a kid shows. It's known as the Vertical Roller Coaster in RCT1 and the Vertical Drop Roller Coaster in RCT2. RCT2 is also when they finally decided to change the name of Whoa Belly to what it actually is in real life . Did they change it for the UK version? I have no memory of Whoa Belly when I played RCT1.

Soft opening starts Friday but there's pictures of people inside here (probably for publicity stills since quite often normal pictures have peoples faces blurred): http://witheverland.tistory.com/1310 It looks quite open in design which is nice, the last one in Hong Kong I did was behind glass. Edit: Looking at the newly released English map, the Panda musical I mentioned on the last page is taking up Madagascar's spot in the stage arena and is called: Lebao's Adventure, not a new fireworks show, although I wouldn't be surprised if the 2 new panda mascots get included with the others for the night show and parade. Like Madagascar, it's also ticket entry only with first come first serve from the ticket boxes around the park (which is also where you can pick up a T Express ticket if it is running reservation only and save yourself a line at T Expresses' booth) the other reservation rides: K-Pop, Pride in Korea, Kidscovery are still only available outside their attractions like the queue jumps (and T Express if it's standby and fast pass just to confuse you even more) Edit 2: While I'm updating my previous post, K Pop hologram is to reopen April 15th after being closed for a few months. The previous singers they used have been replaced either to keep it current or maybe because the license ran out for the previous ones. If the map is any indication the name will now be Live Hologram Theater. No mention of the Global Village replacement/refurbishment yet, wondering if it will become the 2017 new addition since it's completely missing on the map.

Now you just need to buy a d-box home theater and you're all set. Not sure if it's the same for all the Blu-rays but my wife got me the 30th anniversary one as a late birthday present (since I'd never seen the animated series before) and they'd thrown in D-box motion code for the ride footage (and the movies I think) although I've yet to ever meet someone with it in their home or a cinema with it either since I think Korean 4DX might be a different system.

This might come as a surprise considering my avatar but the ride was always meh at best and I kind of felt differed from the tones of the movie anyway, I would have liked to go during closing purely to have a last chance to see if I could find any of the crazy BTTF merchandise they used to have that got evicted for the minions shop. and see what they do to honor the closing, especially since it's a 2 hour flight. As a huge BTTF fan, I loved walking up and seeing the Delorean and the BTTF logo on a giant building, as well as a shop with nothing but BTTF merchandise, hearing the theme music pumped around the area, even the Doctor Brown mini-clips and seeing that climb in Delorean ride-vehicle. But the ride itself.... probably my least favorite part. Its included on the DVD extras of the films so it's purely nostalgia that I end up riding it.

And this is mine, especially since now you have 3x as many people who think it's better to share PSA's about who your April Fools may be hurting than people who actually bother with April Fools:

I think a code on G2A was $25.
