    New patents filed by Universal Orlando for the changes around the removal of Dragon Challenge.

    The permits for Universal's project dubbed "U O 942" show the theme park is seeking to work on a 7.44-acre site in the heart of its Islands of Adventure theme park. The documents say the work is for "renovating an existing area within the overall IOA site. Includes revisions to existing ponds and storm structures."
    Most notably, the permit shows a map of the work area that includes nearly a quarter of the entire Islands of Adventure footprint, from the northwest corner that occupies the Wizarding World of Harry Potter — Hogsmeade and east into parts of the Lost Continent and south into the backstage parts of Jurassic Park.

    That map confirms the rumors that Universal's Project 942 — which filed for a series of demolition permits with the city of Orlando in late July— is, in fact, the new "highly-themed coaster" attraction replacing the Dragon Challenge coaster at Islands of Adventure that the theme park announced last month.

  3. New Vekoma Firestorm going up at World Fairytale Land on the massive Hainan Flower Island project (Think Dubai Palms but in the shape of a lotus flower)

    Note: The green is just protective wrapping not the actual paint.

  5. Indeed. The park is has a Chinese built spinner and is apparently due to get a B&M wing coaster of the same design seen at Hotgo Dreamland although no evidence of that ride being built as of yet.

    The location is here

    Anyone know anything more about Huayi Brothers Movie World? Definitely under constructions and due to open this year. Location would be useful.

    Guests are surrounded by immersive environments that celebrate the hit movies, television shows, celebrities and pop culture that the Huayi Brothers are famous for. Stories are brought to life through cutting-edge technologies, spectacular shows, thrilling rides, and unique attractions.

    Sectioned into five different movie-inspired areas, these highly-themed zones will combine unique “film set” locations and fully-immersive environments, allowing guests not only to learn the magic of moviemaking through the Huayi Brothers’ unique history, but also get swept up in the magic by actively playing a role themselves.

  7. A great new view of the Vekoma looper coming to several new Fantawild parks. The first one should open at the new resort in Changsha. China.

    Six Flags Fiesta Texas is unrolling Wonder Woman's Golden Lasso as a new, revolutionary coaster. Golden Lasso will replace Power Surge at Six Flags Fiesta Texas, and will open for the 2018 season.
