Ep-ity-______! (w/photos!)

excellent pics! You have a good eye. The Japan work has been a long time coming, but the work is top notch--looks gorgeous. Nice to see a fresh World Showcase.

With those clouds over Epcot, I see summer has definitely arrived in Florida!

I was a bit skeptical of the HM wall at first, but the finished product is very nice--even dead roses! Nice! I would expect that quality on the inside come fall.

Wand or no wand, that is a sincerely stunning picture of SSE.

But you've gotta admit, no wand works best...

Thanks for these fantastic shots, merf!

I was just telling a friend today that everything in Epcot is setup based on the notion that SSE is symetrical. The wand forces asymetry and the paths, planters, buildings, and visuals around the park don't mesh.

Those are some sweet pictures man. Thanks for taking the time & posting them.

That HM refurb wall is awesome. It would've been extremely easy for them to leave the regular colored basic wooden refurb wall up, but instead, they've done an amazing job theming it and even making part of the story.

It's been a while since I've seen an example of the care and thought they USED to put into the parks, but finally, they've done it again. It's small, but VERY important.

Well good the wall is finally done, we are FINALLY getting a bit of themed rehabs like with the shootin arcade and now HM. They do it really well at DL, so I'm happy to see something different than generic construction walls.

I would consider the tarps in Epcot's China a themed rehab too because that's how they really refurb the ancient buildings in China. I thought it was a nice touch.

You want more symmetry? Let's put a wand on the OTHER side! :sohappy:

BTW--thanks for the update.

Yep definatly looks better without the wand,it looks more epic in a way if you get what i mean.

Thanks for the update and great pictures. Now if they could repaint SSE's legs back to all blue to get rid of the brown legacy stripes.

Its to make the LaL stones match with SSE.

Sorta like dressing up SSE like a cheap floozie because the plaza was selling herself out in front.

 

[PhilharMagician]

Thanks for the update and sharing the great pics merf. :wave:

 

[kcnole]

Just to help my aging memory that hasn't been to Epcot in about 6 months and has probably blocked those ugly LaL kiosks out of my mind, can someone post a picture of what that area in the first picture looked like with the kiosks there?

And thanks a ton for the editing of the wand out of merfs beautiful picture.
