New shots over the walls (August 19th)

[Captain Chaos]

I don't believe you are assuming wrong on Dumbo moving south.

I just wonder what's going where Dumbo USED to be... especially if Pixie Hollow, in its original form, is dead.

At least, I think, one of the pieces of the puzzle is solved.

Now that we THINK we got one part figured out... LOL... let's try to figure out what could be in the other area... Like you said Pixie Hollow is known to be dead... Question is, how much empty space is going to be back there??? Will the entire Pixie Hollow footprint be available or will Dumbo take up much more land that previously thought??? Let's say the entire area Pixie Hollow was supposed to go is free, that can lead to an entire new area, based on a franchise already in MK... Now, what would fit at the edge of a forest, edge of a circus, and edge of a Mediterranean looking castle housing a mermaid????

This scares me because it gives them an easy excuse to keep the hideous toontown circus tents. I won't set foot in the MK if they go the cheap way out. They have to earn my money like I earn it.

Doesn't scare me because I do feel Toontown is still going bye bye...

Has anyone confirmed Toontown is leaving for sure now??? And if Dumbo does take up a more southern piece of land, wouldn't that still take up a portion of Toontown??

Well obviously it will have a circus theme, with circus tents. But after that I guess the skies the limit. Oh, it will have to have circus music.

 

[Captain Chaos]

I see what you mean now. I think it's just the foundation left from the clearing of Ariel's Grotto and Scuttle's Landing. If the Dumbo spinners were smaller I could see that working, but it's much too small.

I think what jt is seeing is tire marks in the dirt, leaving behind some residue, white residue, probably from cement... I wouldn't look too much into that...But I can see why he would think that....

Yes ToonTown has finally kicked the bucket.

I always thought it was leaving and never believed the rumors to the contrary..............until today.

jt, herer you go!!!

Tell me, Dumbo's Circus inside the castle walls.. And BAM!!! The Festival of Fools on the outskirts of the circus..

What hooked me was the way the construction fence bends around and dips back out where they put the tables. It has a very double spinner-esque shape to it.

Honestly, I don't know what to believe anymore.. But hey, why not speculate??? I don't think any of us will be disappointed by speculating.. After all, aren't we just armchair imagineering???

Yes but shouldnt we finally be glad that there actually increasing the budget instead of the usual cutbacks for bonuses or new marble floors in their offices.

Absolutely. And the last thing we need is our speculating hindered by being sent dubious hints by those who claim to know but don't actually back up their claims with useful information.

Focus, must stay focused.

Didn't catch the Fesitval of Fools pics??? LOL... fits perfectly with the circus/medival theme... I am sure there is a TDO joke in there as well.. I'll let others come up with it though

So what is your speculation as to why the construction fence looks perfectly shaped to conceal that double spinner. If you move the current Dumbo to that spot in your mind's eye it could fit. And since they are using a new mechanism it is possible the new spinners are slightly smaller. Just sayin'.:shrug:

I'm looking at the ariel photo.. You are talking about the construction wall that has the circular dent in it, just to the top of the current Dumbo spinner right??? That area, behind the wall, looks too small to fit the circus, which I assume will be a tad bigger.. And also, I think it may cause walkway and access problems putting the spinner there... But again, i can see what you are saying and understand why you assume Dumbo could move just a few feet...

I go out on the limb a lot but I swear I remember Tirian or Corrus mentioning it was moving exactly there. I agree the tent area looks too small comparing it to the blueprints but I guess it is possible it was scaled down. But that is what is fun about speculating.

What is funny is that the person who took pictures yesterday and posted them completely avoided shots of this area. And I think it is possible Disney put those tables there to make it difficult to get shots over the fence. Time will tell.

give it a rest its actually becoming annoying
Dumbo is moving away and WILL NOT be located anywhere near the Village Haus. :brick::brick::brick:

Did I hear some kind of beeping noise? Or maybe a mouse squeaking? :shrug:

juan, since you can confirm Dumbo is in fact moving to the eastern portion of the expansion, can you also confirm if it will be a little further southern that originally planned or going into the northern portion like the blue prints show??

you might have to get those ears checked:wave:

I would look to the original concept art (not leaked blueprints) as guidance in this matter :wave:
