Disney construction speculation can be a pretty big nuisance. One bit of Youtuber speculation going around is that MK's gonna get a Primeval World diorama because they're doing construction on the railroad where one could possibly go.

I think you're giving the man who's behind this too much credit.

Holy Seventies, Batman! This looks pretty cool.

That's how the stars are done if you didn't know.
