Definitely an E ticket for the intended audience. And dwarves who can't ride SM and BTMRR.

Very nice theming. :happy:

I don't want to get into the age old d or e ticket argument, but its quite short. I wouldn't say it's an E, even for its intended audience, whatever that means. It's a solid, solid D-ticket, and I can't wait to ride. What ticket the ride falls under is irrelevant.

I mentioned this in the post for the exterior video of the ride; I was really expecting more swaying movement from the carts. In the previous exterior video, it didn't look like they were swaying at all, and it doesn't really look like it in this video either. Wasn't that supposed to be one of the key features for the ride?

Of course it is short. ;)

And it is clear this attraction is geared towards those who can't ride the more challanging E tickets. And the MK of all places should cater to children.

And in the future hopefully we will get more thrill rides at the other parks. :D IMO.

I agree though, what people call it means little. (see what I did there?)

I think it is going to be something you feel more then see.

Looks pretty fun. The D ticket we've all suspected.

I cannot image that anyone would have thought otherwise. I mean, we have watched this being built, we can see what was built...the hills and turns are what they are. It was never meant to compete against IOA Hulk or any similar ride. I think it looks great, exactly the speed and such I had imaged.

I think if they did have a static figure that we wouldnt have time to notice all that detail...there may be things hidden already! Disney will surprise us...they always do.

That would be funny, a princess themed hyper coaster. I am trying my best not to watch the video.

Not true, there was never any plans for dwarfs to be outdoors or for the Evil Queen to be peeking out from behind a tree. I believe that the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is a great addition to fantasyland with phenomenal theming.

Phenomal? Thats a stretch. Even if the original planes didn't call for any AA'S outside, that doesn't mean they deserve a pass on it. I'm not saying the ride is bad. I'm just saying they could do better. Seems like a waste of a good opportunity. The ride will be there for decades. Set the precedence early that it is timeless. Something they don't do anymore.

Thanks for repeating exactly what the website has already posted. Now go and watch the video of the full ride through and tell me that it is as "immersive" as other attractions. And I'm talking about attractions like Splash, or BTMRR, which took roughly the same amount of time to build (and probly less money) and have waaaaaaay more theming. The mine scene is AWESOME, but that's it. I'll take Splash any day over this.

All I know is that I can't wait to ride the thing. I'm comparing it to an upgraded Casey Jr (from DL) in my head. For what it is, it looks terrific. It fits well in Fantasayland. It looks like they have spared no detail. I really think that if this had been a net addition (and not a replacement for SWSA) that people would have been much less skeptical. Did it take too long? Sure. At the end of the day though.....who cares. Are the AAs the best ever? Nope, but they sure look pretty great to me. In fact, all of NFL looks great to me and it feels like it adds to the festivity and feel of the Magic Kingdom. I can't wait to see the first FULL POV. And it will be my first stop when I go. Which, sadly, wont be for a couple of years.

So is there not the log scene where we pass under the dwarves as shown in the concept art? My only complaint...

I feel I remember @Lee saying that was taken out of the design well over a year ago. Not sure in the timing, but it feels like that was around the time I remember reading it.
