Mattercam pictures of the Tower's conversion

[Curious Constance]

Well, that looks about as good as the first one which was......... AMAZING!

Hans, I'm going to hurt you if you don't watch the movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it looks a bit darker, but that could be due to the light.

hahaha when I read this somehow I had it in my mind that you were talking about the new trailer for the movie and it made me laugh.

Tower of Terror fans will be like this in the theater.

How long have there been visable pipes sticking out of Tower near the doors at the top? Was surprised by them today.

Today's picture. I can't really see pipes sticking out of the Tower. It looks more like the top of scaffolding. We need an in park picture.

If you're referring to the horizontal pipes, I believe they've been there since the ride was built.

Ok maybe I just never noticed them before but they appeared to be horizontal and vertical. Maybe they just stood out this time because the rest of the tower is all covered up.

That little piece in the middle of your picture is not what I thought you were asking about. Honestly, (with what little context is included in that photo) I'm having trouble pin-pointing where it would be in pre-construction photos. I'll let others with more expertise take over from here.

There's actually quite a lot of those little pipes sticking out around all 3 openings. But with just my cell phone the only picture I could get that really showed what I'm talking about was from right under the exit gift shop. They definitely stood out to me, and I've ridden Tower hundreds of times. But it's definitely possible that the only reason they are standing out now is that except for that tiny area it just looks like a giant brown paper bag is looming over the whole park.

So that is where all the duck tape went!

Daily pictures start again as the tower is revealed.

Looks like they've covered up a section of the facade again. Interesting.

They put the scaffolding back up. Maybe they changed their mind and will return it to the Tower of Terror? Doubt it.

They must be doing some significant changes I would think. You don't put back that much scaffolding just to fix a couple odds and ends.

I told you guys it probably wasn't done yet. A lot of the details shown in the concept renderings and the model are still missing.

This project is about as exciting to me as avatarland. which is, to say, underwhelming me.

It looked to me that the pieces missing were ornamental in nature that could have been attached just using a lift of some sort. I'm wondering if the paint scheme was not well liked by the powers that be. We'll know soon enough.
