Magic Kingdom Update: New Fantasyland Construction, Dumbo The Flying Elephant, Former Skyway Station Area Progress – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

Yesterday was a gorgeous, cool day at the Magic Kingdom (below, left). We encountered the Main Street streetmosphere characters by the Fire Engine as soon as we walked into the park (below, right). We once again play tested the Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom interactive game and added to our growing collection of Sorcerers cards.

 

After enjoying a hidden history tour of the Magic Kingdom as part of our weekly park meet, we checked on the progress over in Fantasyland. We were impressed with the big changes since our last update just last week (below, left and right).

 

All the buildings in the Belle’s Village area have changed since last week, with the roofwork more pronounced (below, left). The Little Mermaid show building (below, right) has more texture in some areas.

 

The original circus tent dating back to Mickey’s Birthdayland (below, left) is seen above the wall now fitted with a new exterior lining and a external skeleton to make it appear larger when finished. The Fantasyland train station looks like it’s nearing completion (below, right).

 

Dumbo the Flying Elephant (below left and right) wasn’t testing while we were there, but the elephants look like they are well in place on the left counter clockwise side (check out our video of Dumbo ride testing HERE). Eventually this will feature two complete sets of Dumbo rides.

 

The Dumbo interactive queue circus tent and the Great Goofini can be seen from this location (below, left), with Goofy’s hands now visible (below, right). This is the Storybook Circus area of the new fantasyland.

 

Video #1 – New Fantasyland Construction Including Beasts Castle, Belle’s Cottage, Mermaid, Dumbo 1/29/12 – New Fantasyland Construction from 1/17/12 including Beast’s Castle, Belle’s Cottage, The Little Mermaid Ride Building, Storybook Circus Railroad Station and Dumbo The Flying Elephant Elephants!

Trees and other materials are being cleared from the old Fantasyland Skyway Station (below left and right).  This will eventually be the new path to Liberty Square to make room for the upcoming Peter Pan’s Flight interactive queue.

 

Video #2 – Fantasyland Former Skyway Station Area Construction 1/29/12 Magic Kingdom – A look at the Fantasyland former Skyway station area construction on 1/29/12. This will eventually be the new path to Liberty Square to make room for the upcoming Peter Pan’s Flight interactive queue.

A crane rises from Cinderella Castle after a day of removing the Castle Dream lights (below, left). It appears that the lights are almost fully removed as of yesterday. Mickey and Minnie posed for us in the Town Square Theater as we say goodbye to the Magic Kingdom after another great day with friends and perfect weather (below, right).
