Perfect! I get in on the 12th. Here's hoping they don't close the line too early, lol....

This is very sad I kind of hoped it might just cling on for when I go in Feb albeit it I didn't expect it to.
Will have to go on in lots in September, doesn't sound in great shape though which is sad, it seemed ok in May!

Let's predict: by the time Dinosaur closes...
1. How many carnotaurous animatronics will be functioning? Will any of them be operating at a level that wouldn't have gotten the ride shut down for poor show a decade ago?
2. Will any of the other dinos give up and stop moving? If so, which ones?
3. On a scale of 1 to 10 how grimey will Aladar look?
I say:
1. One will have fully given out, most likely the last one. The running one will be the only one in the acceptable zone, mainly due to being harder to see.
2. Styracosaurus and alioramus will freeze.

Carno #1 has his head movement back and I daresay he looks good. If I hadn't watched a bunch of old videos I would say he's operating 100%.
Carno #2 seem to be in an intentional B mode? He's all the way forward the whole time (visible all lit up before the scene actually starts) but his head and mouth are moving when they're supposed to. Loses the cool running effect, but could be worse; it's cool being able to see the entire body and arguably scarier this way.
Carno #3 is still stuck with his body leaning down but I think he's raising his head a bit more. Or he might just been moved upwards altogether. He looks less like he's roaring at the floor, is what I'm getting at.
