An Aerial Look at New Fantasyland – March 2012
Courtesy of Scott Keating and scottkeating.net, we once again have some fantastic aerial photos of Fantasyland to share with you: The base of the old Dumbo is still lingering, guess it isn’t that easy to completely remove… A lot going on here: The bridge that will serve as the entrance to the Be Our Guest Restaurant is nearing completion, the Mermaid queue entrance is out from behind scaffolding and appears mostly complete with the exception of pavement, and we can now make out a distinguishable footprint for the Seven Dwarves Mine Train Another angle shows that Gaston’s Tavern is far behind the other buildings in the village We can now see where the Casey Jr. Splash ‘N’ Soak Station is going [...]

WDWNT Reporter Adam roth visited the Magic Kingdom on Saturday evening and has some great nighttime photos to share with us from his trip: The Storybook Circus tents are completely empty A look towards Under the Sea: Journey of the Little Mermaid Dumbo… AT NIGHT! Barnstormer… AT NIGHT! The LED lighting makes Dumbo look glorious at night The popcorn lights around the attraction also look great You DO need a Magic Feather The eerie blue light in the Train Station is weird… The screen based signage doesn’t blend well at night Props from various Goofy shorts are in the loading area Some others tie-into the posters and stunts outside Goodnight Magic Kingdom
An In-Depth Look at New Fantasyland’s Storybook Circus
While we wait for more pictures and video, I decided to post WDWNT Reporter Adam Roth’s twitter pictures of today’s Storybook Circus opening. Let’s take a closer look at the first piece of the New Fantasyland puzzle: Dumbo looks great in the new pastel colors! The story scenes on the bottom of the carousel were a nice touch Great attention to detail The rest of Fantasyland has a long way to go… PINK ELEPHANTS ON PARADE! The other Dumbo spinner will take a while Barnstormer signage A look across the way The back of the Barnstormer sign has a reference to Wiseacre Farm from Toontown Fair This poster is up on the construction walls… including Humphrey the Bear eating a [...]

From the other [...]

An Aerial Look at the New Fantasyland Progress – February 2012
Courtesy of Scott Keating and scottkeating.net, we once again have some fantastic aerial photos of Fantasyland to share with you: The foundations for the Seven Dwarves Mine Train are now in place, the old Dumbo is now history, and it looks like an extension of the Mermaid rock-work is about to begin to make the show building not visible from Storybook Circus The queue for Enchanted Tales with Belle seems further along than any other project, so it’s possible that may open first Prince Eric’s castle is looking good, but the rest of the facade is far from finished Dumbo and the Fantasyland Station are nearing completion, meanwhile, the Barnstormer is complete with the exception of some landscaping and queue [...]
