  1. Thanks everyone for the tips, we will probably get there early like the other two as we have 3-4 days in Tokyo IIRC (although we are flying out on the last night). I realised the fast pass for Nagashima actually is for individual rides, although 1,000 yen for each ride (around $10.50 AUD) isn't too bad (cough cough Village Roadshow). Not sure how busy it is in October but we probably don't need fast passes for each ride. The cost without the water park is around 5,800 yen so we would most likely grab that one instead. Thinking of also stopping by Tokyo Dome City and getting the two credits there, Thunder Dolphin especially seems like a highlight there and the two coasters are only 2100Yen/$22 AUD combined. If everything goes right, that should be 21 credits (some probably would be closed but oh well, should at least get 10)
  2. We are landing in around 2pm on the 25th and it will take a bit to get through everything at the airport like checks and to get to the hotel, and by then we would be tired so I don't think we would be able to do 1.5 days. We've got plans to get fast passes with Nintendo/Potter/Jurassic Park as said, so we should be able to get everything done in a day if we do everything else first. Most videos i've seen at opening show everyone running toward SNW so it shouldn't be too busy. Thinking of getting the Demon Slayer coaster done first followed by Space Fantasy as thrill-data says they have the longest waits, iirc Potter/SNW rides have timed entries so we should have time to do them. Good to hear - although looking at the results the past few years it seems to be busier than average on the 26th. That's our plan - we wouldn't be going if they didn't want to see the castle. The only thing I want to prioritise is Big Thunder Mountain, Splash Mountain and maybe the Gadget Coaster to get the credit, I probably won't be able to get everything done but if I get those 3 I will be happy.
  3. Just an update: We are now looking at flying into Osaka on the 24th of September 2025 (arriving on the 25th thanks to stopovers in Singapore) and going to Universal on the 26th as the 27th and 28th are weekends, then moving up to Tokyo and stopping in several places including Nagashima before staying in Tokyo for the rest of our trip which includes a day at Disney. We're looking at getting fast passes to both Universal and Nagashima, Disney we aren't as we're only going as one of my family members "wants to see the Disney castle" and we thought we might as well go there for a day. Our pass at Nagashima looks to be unlimited, however the one at Universal is a 7 ride pass. Any way to plan a day at Disney and Universal using this information? Nagashima looks a bit more loose given the fast pass is unlimited and there will be less crowds. The fast pass we have at Universal is "Universal Express Pass 7: Mine Cart and Selection" which includes everything in Super Nintendo World/Donkey Kong Country, Harry Potter and Jurassic Park. For Universal we are thinking of being there at opening and quickly getting the other rides out of the way while everyone else is at SNW/Harry Potter as we will have a timed entry and fast pass, we don't have a plan for Disney yet. Any tips would be appreciated from people especially ones who have been there around this time of year.
  4. If this new building is for floats, hopefully they can move them from the showstage and then eventually use the combined showstage + Doomsday land for something new
  5. Yes, but I want to be with family on this trip: I would already be getting new credits at Disney/Universal anyway so it isn't a big deal if I miss out on that, I can always come back alone and get them. Plus we may be using public transport to travel down from Tokyo to Osaka rather than a rental, so we don't want to get too lost with one going one way and the others going the other just for a credit.
  6. Looking at it it does look very intense: I would want to ride it when I go to Japan but unfortunately I am going with family and cannot go their myself (only renting one car) and they don't want it to be just about theme parks (looking at going to Tokyo Disney/DisneySea for three days and Universal for one/two)
  7. If they didn't fix the sightlines with Sea World's new BOH building then I doubt they will here unfortunately. Shows how BGH prefers cost cutting to the bone instead of making it a pleasant experience for the guest
  8. From my understanding the main ride show building is across the railway where the Malaysian Food Court currently is (closed yesterday), but the main area will be where the Madagascar building was. From the shape of the building it looks to be the same as USH (the slanted edges are the same as that unlike USJ/UEU)
  9. If they were doing that, then the question is why all traces of the ride including the sign on the roof were removed? Seems very fishy to me, and with Village's usual way announcing rides being permanently closed months/years after the ride last operated it wouldn't surprise me if it is getting scrapped
  10. Greg is taking Dreamworld in the right direction; he is treating it's his personally owned business putting the love and care into it compared to the corporate style mess down the street. It feels like he personally wants everyone visiting to have the best day out possible while Village just want the money and don't care about the guest experience.
  11. I have heard news that they may not be for much longer, apparently the slides will be closed for the entire season and the whole place may close soon
  12. Dreamworld have definitely put much more love and care into the whole land than MW with Wizard of Oz - every part just looks spectacular. The details placed within each part look fantastic, even a non E-ticket like this looks amazing, and will only get better thanks to weathering and the growing greenery. Good job to Greg Yong and his team for making Rivertown so great, I can't wait to see what is next. Hopefully some enhancements are made eventually, such as retheming Motocoaster into the land and redoing the store's facade to match.
  13. Looking at the images, the courtyard seems underwhelming. It feels a bit too flat, and I don't like the white box in the middle of the land. I haven't seen the inside of the land yet so I hope that will be better.
  14. Glad to see they worked fast to get it open, who knew Rivertown would have a soft open before WoO? There are a few more bits and pieces but I am sure they can get them in before Boxing Day. The only thing I don't like about the area is how the Rivertown store is just brown instead of the temple like features of the land, hopefully they can eventually fix it up if they retheme Motocoaster.
  15. I guess this means the land will open immediately on the opening date with no announcement from the park beforehand like Flash. Interesting to see...
