HKDL gets new castle, frozen land and marvel land.

[no.swatz]

I didn’t manage to get a photo but from the parachute there appears to already be real movement with the Pixar area

Not enough to really determine what’s going on (like sub land with a plaza or just a building etc) but there is definitely a lot of movement

It’s still incredibly difficult to see the marvel expansion pad from any vantage point inside or outside the park (I considered doing a hike to a local peak that has sweeping views of the resort but I didn’t have enough time) so nothing to report there

Cast members seem to have been told there is plans to change the small esplanade store into something more permanent but details are hazy

Try hiking at Chok Ko Wan Tsui, I've been told there are really good views of the park from there.

I was in Shanghai Disney for the first time yesterday and was surprised to see a massive crane in view behind the castle, where the roller coaster would go. This was surprising since they only announced not too long ago that they just broke ground.

On a side note, I was also in Tokyo Disney a week ago and there is a lot of work going on in the backstage of Adventureland, next to the lockers of the front entrance. They were digging what looked like a sub-level.

It’s mostly because Shanghai doesn’t really care about show so they can move things like big cranes in a lot faster than HK

Behind? The spider coaster will be off to the right of the castle as you look from Mickey Av

Am I too sensitive? I think this is too obvious and kind of destroying the atmosphere.

It is, but let’s wait and see the final product. I can’t find any recent video showing these on the rooftops like this.

I mean Paris concealed them pretty well the weeks/months following the installation of their projectors so Hong Kong will probably do the same

If having them on the rooftops improves quality then I hope MK moves them to the rooftops as well.

They look like they’re on a scissor lift and only come out for the show.

The original projector boxes were not only ugly but also destroyed the force perspective of Main Street USA.
