Norway Pavilion Frozen construction - Frozen Ever After ride (Part 2)

[MagicHappens1971]

We need some stealth shots to see what it's like behind those walls!

The doors are wood, with the arch shape.

ok the yellow is hideous but whats worse is that fake looking roof, however it must be pretty much done because that exact yellow portion is in the revised pavilion concept art.... they have ruined something again that didnt need fixing, but will see.........Im also understanding that the attraction entrance doors will be a wood brown look, which is fine, but not understanding this mustard yellow going on..and also the stave church is still locked?!??! anyone there able to check?

The Stave Church is still closed

It's pretty close to the concept. Hopefully the roof of the yellowish facade part, and the bottom part gets more facade details to be added.

If you zoom in on this pic I posted earlier you can tell. I saw the doors but it was hard to get a pic

Which concept art are you referring to? Something that has been publicly released or something internal to WDI?

In my opinion it's pretty bright

Even though the glass roof is the same it is really what is throwing off the pic. I am hoping it is the sun or maybe the glass is just clean for a change.

I do like the new stone and doors...but that left side.....

I took some pics earlier, they may not be the best, but from what I could see that's pretty much all that's there

Bigger question... what are the arrows for? I can't see any reason why those are going to remain, so obviously it isn't done yet. And if it ends up looking like the concept art... I think it looks fine. For those that do not understand a thing called patina, it is when the metal oxidizes and changes colors, becomes more of a dull finish (tarnish). That takes time and nature, not a lot of time, but, I don't expect we will see by opening unless they force the issue.

Ah got it, I had totally forgotten about that. In some concept art that I had seen, there were signage mock-ups for a new store called "Golden Crocus". Given the color of this bright yellow building, maybe this is that?

Patina can be created artificially so you don't have to wait for it. Disney does it all the time, just doesn't look like they have done it here, at least not yet.

This is just the ride entrance.

I was under the impression that the ride entrance was just below the stonework façade. From these photos, it looks like the yellow "building" area is where the old Maelstrom FP machines were.

that is correct, however that area inside is still part of the queue and exit....unless they have removed the doors there completely.

The entrance itself is as you said below the stonework. But the queue and exit should be in this yellow building leading into the old merchandise by The Fjording. They will need all the space they have got for the Frozen ride queue, so that is what makes more sense. There will be a new merchandise store by the Royal Sommerhus!

I am wondering why they changed the look of the façade at all. There was nothing wrong with what was there.

Ahh that makes sense. Has the new merchandise store by the Royal Sommerhus been named yet? If not, that might be the "Golden Crocus" that I saw in some concept art.
