Agreed.
It's odd Renfrow keeps touting this as 'permanent'. I can't imagine Indy and Donald Dinosaur Duck all together in the same place like this but I guess it's "more family friendly; more Disney"

Gah, I know everyone hates Dinoland U.S.A, but man those Chip and Dale costumes are too freakin' adorable. Also, I see they let Launchpad leave the Epcot character training corridor.

Here's some pictures from today.
Would you all prefer the Fab (X + n) meet elsewhere in DAK? In Pandora?
While the tacky DinoRama exists, might as well keep up the tacky theming. They weren't about to throw up a facade of the Met and put them in evening gowns and tuxes.

I, for one, welcome our new Dino-Duck overlords.
Also, if only the Streets of NY had had a Met for them to meet in!

Chip & Dale is pretty cool. Nice to see something more than just a scarf or rosette on them.

The only thing I think that I really can’t stand is the hat on the Brachiosaurus skeleton when entering the land. Everything else seems harmless enough.

I just don't get why the tacky new signage is necessary. They can throw as many characters as they want in Dinorama but please don't make it look worse than it already does.

I hope this continues until mid-September at least. I've never managed to meet Scrooge and he's one of my favorites.
It is kinda tacky though. They could at least made a bit more effort to tie the characters into the land. Maybe instead of Chip & Dale -who can be found elsewhere- they should have used the nephews and tied the thing to Ducktales. Something like "Donald takes his nephews to celebrate their dinosaur routes and Scrooges tags along looking for treasure/precious fossils". Boom, IP tie-in. Hire me, disney.

I think this is cute. So much better than camp Minnie Mickey.

This would fit in DinoRama, but the problem is that most of it is in the older areas of Dinoland that were actually better themed to begin with, which is why they clash IMO. To be honest, I think it looks better in pictures than the concept art, but it's still a bit much. If they had kept it completely inside DinoRama, I don't think it would be as bad.
What is the purpose of the truck, just signage? Does it move? Just seems like it was thrown in there haphazardly. Probably spent more on that than everything else combined!

The truck is for the dance party in the evenings.
More procrastination to avoid fixing the yeti

I don't like the Corythosaur's new scarf either. Like the Donald meet they threw in earlier for it was better in allowing it to function as both a standalone photo-op and a meet and greet backdrop.

Not the mama“They still missed a good opportunity to bring Henson's Dinosaurs to that area..They fit the theming better even if the show isn't relevant anymore..

This week. LOL. And I don't believe these things go hand in hand so one wouldn't have real knowledge of the other, IMO. (meaning one division likely isn't talking to the other)
I think we need to brace ourselves. I know what Martin and MansionButler said but this is exactly what they'd do. Until I get 100% confirmation on Indy going into DHS I'm going to be wary of this. LOL.
Them not hearing about it isn't 100% confirmation it ISN'T happening, either.
