  1. I was more referring to the surrounding area, and the connection from Main Street, hoping that will be completed on time along with the opening of the store. But I do have faith in them that it will all be completed.
  2. When I've been to the park and checked out progress there is very little we can see inside, and the angles you can see from only show small parts of the shop. The other night when the lights were on was the most of inside the store I've seen. But I do imagine there would be a couple of Lego figures in there, but won't be installed until construction is completed so they can't be knocked or get damaged. Stock inside will be the last thing that will happen, and probably won't happen until about January 26. Looking forward to its opening. I do hope that everything will be completed, and we won't see work continue a couple of weeks after it opens like what unfortunately happened with Tiger Island.
  3. Didn't manage to get any pictures, but did get to see inside the Lego store much more easily tonight as it was all lit up inside. In the centre of the store there is a large yellow, octagonal wall, which looks like it will be where the all different varieties of Lego will be found. There are are large yellow blocks hanging from the roof throughout the store. The stores lego logo also lights up. To the left of the store, there are large sliding glass doors which I imagine will be a part of the new exit from the park. And will link through to Main Street where there is that part fenced off.
  4. Went to the park tonight and the Fire Machine was pretty awesome. 10 minutes is a great length for the show and really keeps everyone captivated the whole time. The music does work well with the whole show, and don't think it would have the same effect if they had lyrical music playing. That screeching sound near the end was horrible though. The park was relatively busy tonight, carpark was about 60-70% full when I got there at 4. And waited at least 10 minutes for rides/slides. Weldint was being completed on HWSW, and testing of GD was also happening tonight. If anyone still hasn't seen the show, highly recommend you do this weekend.
  5. I think @reanimated35 map would work pretty well, especially if the building had a massive Top Golf sign facing the road just as you come off the highway. And it does make sense that if they've already got that gravel carpark there, why remove it and build a brand new one in another location, when they can build off this one and make it a proper bitumen one.
  6. @AlexB Here's a better map and an online of where the fencing is for the site.
  7. Arkham Asylum will be closed for maintenance and a reopening date will be announced as soon as possible.
  8. HWSW was seen in testing throughout today
  9. @YLFATEEKS I would have taken some, but the media were stood on the corner where that fencing was, so didn't bother going down there.
  10. Here's a photo of the fence that is the hot topic right now
  11. Just been and taken a couple of photos of my own. And to clear things up to anyone who doesn't exactly know where the site is, here it is on google maps
  12. Something I also want to add that I noticed, was that to the left of the stadium there are no signs saying where to leave prams, ramp access, etc. And I definitely think they need to add it. From the other side there are signs and people obey by what it says and leave their prams in a space that's out the way, but on the left side (looking out to the island) people leave them in the walkway and it made it difficult for everyone to leave (especially as the stadium was overflowing).
  13. I definitely agree with that @Slick, and don't blame them at all, as that is what I'd rather them do. Maybe we will see it ready for the Easter holiday period. Also to add, they were showing a number of the cameras on the big screen, particularly while the tigers were in the pool. It is really cool seeing this when the tigers are in the water and swimming down.
  14. No further progress with stage 2, but this sign has appeared
  15. Just been at the park. TOT is in testing Shockwave was being checked over and had some testing of seat harness GD had workmen on the top of the gondola, and men were varnishing the timber in the queue area Carpark about 60% full so far today And this sign has been updated:
  16. I'm fairly sure it goes for about 15 minutes
  17. If you don't have a license you are in a dual control Buggy with a member of staff, if you do have a license you can be in a Buggy by yourself
  18. From what I can tell when I've visited the park @Ryande16, it definitely seems like it is. Can I ask how you know that the track will begin arriving?
  19. This was posted a couple of days ago by William-Owen Jones who is a part of the Division 2 for the GC and just shows that the DW carpark is completely filling So great to see
  20. The pricing system is a bit confusing because they are displaying different pricing. But right now until January 24 (I think it is) you can only book in park, but after then you can book online. I suppose now they are going to try and take advantage of it while people are there. Also something to add when I was there was they send out 4 cars at a time, with about 30 seconds between each Buggy, and then a 5th one will follow which has a staff member in it, in case there are any issues while on course.
  21. Found out that the Buggys can reach a speed of 35km/h
