HKDL gets new castle, frozen land and marvel land.

That looks cool! What did you do to it exactly?

Oh I didnt, it’s just a post i saw on Instagram from someone who works at the park. He just toned the colors down to a blue which i think makes the castle much more cohesive and pretty.

So it's definitely a custom layout and not an off-the-shelf Vekoma layout, right ?
I wonder what is the tall building that is being built behind the coaster.

Damnnnn HKDL is really out of this world

I've come to really love that they kept the original castle intact. I think it's a really nice statement that (to me) says they acknowledge where the park started but are continuing to pursue their own unique style. It's almost an homage to the original Disneyland built into their (now) drastically different aesthetic. I think it's stunning.

The name “sliding” sleds implies more.

The pic from above would seem to indicate custom. These elements (eg, the camel-hump) don't look like the off-the-shelf Vekoma Jr.:

I think they are ahead of the schedule? I suppose the new frozen land opens in December 2021.

Saw another video of the new construction wall in front of the castle. It gets bonus points for having Aurora in her blue dress.

View of the sliding sleighs from the Toy Story parachute ride I guess?

Here’s a guess on the track layout based on what we’ve seen:

Not only is she in blue, but she's a falconer like she is in her BBB portrait! It's such a perfect hobby for Aurora to have and I'm so happy that Hong Kong is keeping up with this weird but very welcome push.

It seems there was no space for indoor scene

Likely no money either. If this ride got its budget largely from replacing the original concept below, then there’s only so much they can do.

 

[disney.dreams]

just a thought.. maybe there will be a oaken animatronic in the queue area lol

 

[wdpwmlml]

Will it somewhat be like Seven Dwarves Mine Train in terms of level of theming? or a goofy barnstormer situation?

I actually wonder what makes them change this ride into a family coaster
