The land is beautifully themed, with some fantastic detail, kinetics, etc. Don't care much for the rides themselves, which both feel like a one-and-done. Then again I'm not a diehard Frozen fan.

What did surprise me is that the castle isn't enterable. Seems like Disney are leaving money on the table not expanding the castle and turning it into a character dining experience. I am sure they would've clawed back the additional cost of building a proper-sized castle within a short period of selling those overpriced character meals. Even the meals at the Golden Crocus Inn seem overpriced for what they are, so they could easily charge top dollar for Castle + Characters.

I'll be there this weekend to enjoy the new land. The thing to remember for anything HKDL - Land size is so small and they can't just 'get more land'. Also need to remember it is reclaimed land so anything that is super heavy (like the castle) still sinks a little after construction.

I'm sorry, I wasn't clear just now, I meant like 2nd best kids-based Vekoma attraction (e.g. Barnstormer, Gadget's, etc.). Yup sorry!

2nd best Vekoma?
I'm pretty sure that you will agree that there are many more that are way better than the two: Expedition Everest, Tron, Guardians: Cosmic Rewind (The longest Indoor Coaster in the World btw.), Big Thunder Mountain (DLP), Space Mountain (DLP), even the Rock'n Rollercoasters.

I think it's more like a "nice to have" attraction, especially for kids. Of course, it's a Disney-Coaster, so people and Disney are hyping it to the moon. Because of the lack of attractions in Paris, this would be a nice addition as well... . But yeah, maybe they will get it in 2030 as a big third face Expansion :')
