Universal IOA | Incredible Hulk | B&M Retrack

[SaiyanHajime]

Alright Ben, it's not like this is a Hulk topic or that Nemesis doesn't actually have broken track theming, since that isn't meant to be track, it's that the track is meant to be the monster. I was on a completely different page. Sorry. In future, I will try to read your mind.

And re floorless... Totally agree with Peep. They add nothing unless you're in front row, and even then it's minimal. If it didn't require editing the station I bet they would have though?

Oh **** me, I need it now.

That is absolutely gorgeous. The last 2 pictures don't even look real.

 

[Ben]

It's so weird cause it's so familiar but so subtly different xD

 

[Lofty]

Love the lighting, so so so much.

Can't wait to see the entrance

Awesome that they have used the old track and train for the entrance.

How comes the roar seems much quieter? Has the new track been filled with sand to make it silent? Or is it just the videos..

Pretty sure it's been filled this time. Lots of people have been saying so.

Big question is, how long until opening????

The hulk is being held hostage with a bag over his head

Ahhhhh please open soon!

I've been reading 'late summer' as the latest time which could mean end of august?? It looks pretty ready- almost like ready for a 4th July weekend opening!?

I'll check out the updates when I go soon regardless.

I am living the new entrance sign. So clean and modern.

Apparently there is a VR preview thing in the toon lagoon theatre which features a VR hulk coaster related video. Apparently it's a fact finding exercise to get people's opinions on VR for future developments rather than anything to do with hulk.

Source: One of the Orlando park blog things posted it but I cba to find it as I'm in a ride queue.

Love the entrance.

Although they have made a new zero car as it matches the new design. I wanted them to re-use the front of the old train as a nod to old Hulk

Can't be long till this is open now surely..?

Are you in Orlando now? Get yourself down there and be like "first of all, bitch..."

I am yeah. Haha. I will do but was holding off going to IOA incase it opened.

Please arrive and be like "VR is ****", save us all from Universal trying to do it, too.

I might well do that. [FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY] Although I haven't actually done anything VR yet.

I can't see then not doing it though unfortunately. After all it's an opportunity to put in more screens and we know how much universal love them!

Double post but they're running it on empty today. Not sure if that was happening before. Usually empty is the last they do before people tests right?
