Magic Kingdom update 10.22.13

[djkidkaz]

Mine train from this morning, it looks like the Pinocchio Village Haus walls were pushed out even further, everything in Splash Mountain was working great except for the jumping fountains that shoot across in the laughing place scene, you can now buy your own small world doll and there is a new 4 disc music cd available as well as the poly beach being tore up.

Thanks for the photos. I looked up the track listing on that 4-disc set on iTunes (since they're a tad blurry here). Wow! It's even better than the recent "official album" of WDW! Great stuff.

It's a good thing they're making sure a DVC kiosk will be included in the new area

We saw those small world dolls at the local disney store. They all sing in their respective language and when you get all of them going on the display at the same time it's quite creepy.

That silly thing looks like it's going to take another year to open at this rate. Good lord.

I love the iasw dolls!

Maybe the ride will make you exit through it.

Wait - do they sing in sync with each other? That would be a cool little feature.

They aren't designed to, but nothing is stopping you from pushing all the buttons at the same time.

The fact that their putting the DVC signage up and finishing the rockwork right next to Erics Village would lead me to believe this area is opening up fairly soon.

Perhaps, but hasn't there been a little refreshment stand operating attached to Dwarf Hill opposite Little Mermaid for months now?

Yes but I was referring to the rest of Erics Village. Usually, once the signage goes up on the building behind walls it isn't long at all until its open.

Unless opening the DVC kiosk has priority over the ride, which wouldn't surprise me.

Not the 7DMT ride but the rest of "Prince Eric's Village" -- the building being constructed on the back of the 7DMT mountain next to the already open healthy refreshment stand. The rumor has been that the building will be a gift shop for Little Mermaid -- apparently, with a DVC stand in the area as well.

And I would agree that it seems likely that this is opening up soon with the signage being placed. Thebuilding looks pretty much complete from what is visible. If it is indeed a merch location, it would make sense to open it before the busy holiday season begins (e.g. before Thanksgiving).

Is that a giant squid weather vane I see?

I agree, this is a really great looking album. I love that it includes the Darkwing Duck Theme song!

I am so mad! I am looking at people in shorts an flip flops at WDW and it is now 35 degrees (and getting colder tonight) in Illinois! UGH....
