This construction wall is now up, so both sides of the path are walled off (left for World of Color and right for Little Mermaid)

Further visual aid

The Corn Dog Castle is now closed

Gift shop closed

Also closed to be rethemed over the next few years this entire area will be getting well needed spruce ups

Mullholand Madness still open



Typical line for Toy Story Midway Mania

Found "Traffic Trouble" to be a somewhat ironic and appropriate time for this picture. Speaking of which, people need to learn when park employees are asking you to keep moving in the designated walkway that means keep moving and not stand there blocking the designated walkway with strollers.

I was pretty excieted to ride another GCI, especially one with an onboard soundtrack


I found some of the "theming" in the queue quite hilarious


The theming in the main queue isnt anything mindblowing. There were some cool props but they were surrounded by big open spaces of concrete or cheap looking walls.

But regardless its still above average and certainly better than nothing.






Found it kindve funny they just took what worked from Batmans line and used it for Terminator. BTR the ride flies above the police car crashed into a fire hydrant, Terminator is a semi truck buried in dirt :lolr:

Time: now Seat: yes Smoking: no
WTF :lmao:





It stopped on the lift before we got to the preshow, and sent test cycles around for a good half hour before opening back up

This security lady walked around the line telling people not to sit on the handrails

Last prop before the preshow, theming is starting to get more intense

Me in front of the preshow building

Suddenly the ride goes Universal Studios on you and the theming becomes amazing. The preshow areas are very immersive and really well done.


The next preshow room




Audio speaker on the seatback in front of you

Yes this is a very unorthodox ride, but it works. Terminator kicks major a**, the preshows leading up to the ride are top notch, its way faster and wilder than Evel Knievel, the onboard audio and tunnells make the ride much more enjoyable and put it over Renegade in my opinion. Its up there almost as good as Thunderhead.
