News Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind attraction confirmed for Epcot

[HauntedPirate]

Example #472 of why you do not believe what you see in concept art.

Looks awful! The base is completely blocking one fin!

I have to agree. You think they could have come up with something that looked better. I guess beggars can’t be choosers. It least its one step closer to opening some day.

Why aren’t we talking about the guy in the cockpit

Is he a new M&G?

 

[wdwmagic]

They’ve got to run power to the thing too for lights, right?

There has been no signs of any power going into the actual ship itself. It looks like it may be lit from the ground with spotlights.

Jeez, I expected Ellen and GMR to close in September. Still not sure why they aren't doing this at Hollywood Studios. Building from RnRC must be cheaper than doing this I'd have to imagine.

Losing the sweet color that UoE has is gonna suck.

Corvette shark louvers!!

lights were shown from the ship in the concept, but maybe that was scratched too.

I think the power us running up the side you cannot see now that the support is there:

It is what it is.

Ah yes sorry I missed that one, looks like there most definitely is power up there.

 

[J4546]

Im guessing that area around the ship will be for meet n greet characters and not guests? Still waiting for possible shrouding of stand and lighting package but so far I like it!

 

[Disney Analyst]

Ah yes sorry I missed that one, looks like there most definitely is power up there.

But that should confirm a shell is coming to mask/theme the support, as they will want to hide that electrical.

I have a feeling there's something still missing. If you look at where the support meets the physical ship prop, there's a clean cut and the underside is unpainted. This makes it seem like there's a "shell/covering" that'll connect to this area.

Not to mention that there are loose wires woven through the truss at the moment.

There's for sure more bits to round out the ship. They'll hide the mount point for sure. Just curious about the rest of the beam.

I feel duped, reading reactions I thought it was finished!

Well, if I was fine with it now, I'm sure I'll like it more later!

Well then I am hopeful that they will be covering the ugly gray storage rack.
If wonder if they covered it mirror (or something highly reflective, it could fool the eye?

 

[MiddKid]

I may be crazy but I'm still seeing the concept art here. The rear fin is the green outlined fin in the art. The red-outlined fin (including the bottom chin of the cockpit) to my eyes would cover up a big chunk of the structure. No way is the concept art going to be perfect but it certainly looks to me like we have a lot more blue/gold cladding to be added to support structure.

 

[No Name]

This is why I didn’t remember the support

Right, that art was released two years later.

@MiddKid you can see that they changed plans… the most recent art doesn’t have that fin/wing.
