VERY nice.


I'm hoping the new color is much lighter.


Oh...And this is random, but...Can they do SOMETHING about those AC units on top of the arcade? :dazzle: It just looks like a common warehouse or something with them sitting there.

Perhaps I'm missing something...what AC units?

Is this the final scheme?

No I believe its primer.

Ahh. It could be worse. :shrug:

They could have the plain compressor boxes on top of most commercial buildings.

I guess. But why not theme them? They could make it fit into TL very well...:lol:

Interesting stuff.

Interesting, let's hope that whatever new scheme they use works better than the older one. :hurl:

Well, its a work in progress, but so far, I approve.

LOL, I was looking on top and on the other side in the photos I had pulled up. For a moment there, I thought you were crazy.

To be honest, I had never taken notice of them. WOW. Thanks Evan. Now I shall obsess about them when I see them live.

:lol:

And you are welcome...This is what I do. :lookaroun


Aren't the horrid?:dazzle::ROFLOL: I would love to see those gone, or at least themed....Add a little spire to each or something..

I know this is a little OT...but I cant believe they are leaving the FP bottleneck where it is.

We don't know that....


It might move, hopefully.

I took a pretty good look at it yesterday and there no signs of demo...it looked to me like it has been sanded down for a fresh coat of paint.

Hmm. Well, it's still behind the walls, and very close to the demo site.

And the sign is still missing its lettering.

So, We Wait On.....:lookaroun:lol:

 

[EPCOT Explorer]

That we do...very impatiently might I add.

November (and the Dec!:lookaroun) needs to hurry up and get here.:lol:
