thatsa a still from the video.. I'll get come hi rez photos today
AS suspected, the nose cone/cabs are PAINTED not the stickers.... everything else appears to be sticker overlays.

Saw the video. I think it looks pretty good. I do hope it's temporary but I'm not going to get upset if it sticks around until the end of the year.

Could that further indicate that maybe this operation will repeat itself for future movie releases, or am I reading too much into that?! :lookaroun
After all stickers have got to be more cost effective than paint.
no.... it means that the contours and the angles of the cab area proved difficult to overlay, so they painted them...
The trains are repainted all the time.. this would just be a different color in the sprayer
.....Also, the paint on the 'leading edge' of the monorail is more durable... insect strike cleaning and wash down won't damage it as easily and the stickers.
Yes an no. If all you were doing is a straight color (like the nose) paint is easier and less expensive. They are however considerably more cost effective when graphics are involved. They can also be replaced relatively easily if damaged and can be duplicated for additional vehicles almost as easy as printing a photo from your computer.

I wasn't sure how I felt about these, but the from the pictures, they look great.

Not really. I'm not saying that they will do something that extreme. But overlaying entire monorail trains for a movie is pretty far out there, in my opinion. Others may not feel that way. If your mind's eye sees a really extreme direction it will naturally progress in that direction. How hard would it be to slap a big ol' vinyl over the windows on the ends of the Contemporary's A-frame? Not so much more extreme than overlaying an entire monorail train for the sake of advertising 9 months before the product being advertised will be available. It's just a thought process...a venture into imagining where or if marketing draws lines. That's all.:wave:

Not really a Tron fan but that looks pretty freakin awesome!
I didn't see any indicators for identifying Coral as the actual train though. So for now, everyone must memorize that Blue is actually Coral on concourse.
