Oh wow they added a whole second half to the thing. I had no idea it would be this big.

Yeah that completely threw me - like I legit couldn't understand why the layout looked so different from the seperate angles haha

I was assuming it was a giant oval, like a Disneyized overly expensive version of Pony Express at Knotts.

Been a while since anyone posted here, but i'll update you with some stuff.

First of all, here is a video showing some leaked testing footage of the coaster (Starts at 0:27)

Secondly, here is some overhead shots of the current construction as of February 2018:















Also, you may notice in the images that a large scale Jessie figure/animatronic has been installed around where the Rex animatronic was installed. This videos show them being installed in the area around the helix.

That area is really coming together. Looks nice now, and the ride has a great use of color now that it's not on barren dirt.

Opens fully tomorrow.

I actually really like those bunny hops after the second launch. It alludes to the slinky part of Slinky Dog.
