Space Mountain/Tomorrowland Transit Authority update...

[WDITrent]

I really love the new TTA SM sign. Now that I can see that, I wonder if they are using the same design for the entrance sign out front. Then again, the outline of the letters are still there. Maybe they're just replacing the orange with green again.

Here, this is what I was talking about, the new sign as you enter Space Mountain on the TTA: :lol:

Thanks!!! :wave:

I was confused...nothing new for me...:ROFLOL::ROFLOL::ROFLOL:

I REALLY like the new sign, I just wish the blue paint on the building matched up alittle better...

If the buildings blue was the same color the sign wouldnt pop graphically. In theory that white wall should be something contrasting on the other end of the color spectrum or complimentary like a burnt orange but then..well they would used the old orange sign colors for the wall. Stupid Color wheel :dazzle:

True, but if it was all white I think it would really pop. The two different blues contrast one another, almost as if it was the same blue color only faded against the new sign.

I would assume if it was going be a fountain they wouldn't have built the walls before they had installed a base as at the moment no diggers can get in and the base is just soil and no hardcore for a concrete base that would be needed.

I think some kind of tribute to the 64 World's Fair would be light years beyond brilliant.

Indeed. Or WF39.:lookaroun

Just got back from MK and have a little update (no pics though, sorry).

First, the wooden circle is now a concrete circle.

Second, there is a large hole being dug in the center of the circle, maybe for water pipes/drains (just speculation on my part though).

Third, I hope they are not finished painting the arcade because the backside looks very sloppy/incomplete and it is very visible from the TTA.

Cool, and cooler.


Hoping for a fountain and hoping that the whole mountain gets painted/cleaned.

While I loved the puprle and orange color scheme, I think the new colors look great.

This is the Unisphere Globe with reflection pool from the 1964 New York Worlds Fair.

This would be nice for the area in TL only smaller of course.

Hmmm....I don't see any water lines, drainage lines, or electrical sticking up in the middle anywhere. They wouldn't bury those things and then dig to find them later...and they can't run them into that area now that the walls are up.

I have a bad feeling this is just going to be a big planter.

Sooo pretty.

I must say, though....why was it so small?

Peripshere and Trylon REALLY take the cake!

<--- Yes, feast your eyes on the glorious Unisphere.

The Globe is actually much bigger than it seems in that picture.
