If only I could go
Where did you find this intel? plz
Some news blogs reported when the last one was.
Also, Islands closes at 7:00 that day. So I imagine thatâs the time it will start.
Thank you! Marking my calendar now
Sounds like something weâd need to prepare a Seder for.
VCON UpdateâŠ
The last couple of days the ride has been going through multiple cycles of testing with various departments of TMs. (Many are talking on social media)
You can also hear the ride sounds and music from inside the gift shop. Even the outdoor queue music is on.
Feels like a soft opening could be soon! Iâm shocked they didnât open in time for July 4th!!
Whats VCON?
Itâs the new ride at USF⊠Villian Con Minion Blast
Whatâs your secret for finding the TMâs on social media?
Mostly I pay attention to the replies to popular vloggers on social media. Every once in a while someone will mention they are a TM. Also, sometimes Iâll notice verbage and jargon, in a reply, that I recognize from my time working in theme parks. It âsignalsâ that they may be a TM.
I follow those people and see what they are talking about and/or engage with them. I do have 3 TM âfriendsâ that I made while actually in the parks and now follow on Twitter. (One at Dr. Doom, another at JPRA and the last is a habitual HHN stilt walker / chainsaw scarezone TM)
Looks like theyâve had to move the Starbucks at USF while they do construction / renovations.
You gotta go to CafĂ© LaBamba for coffee atmâŠ
VCON UPDATE!!!
Multiple vloggers / bloggers -
The ride is currently doing team member previews!! The attractionâs exit is now open as well.
This is the path to soft opening and maybe AP previews very soon!!
For those like me who donât think they will need a new pass until Epic Universe opens, i did ask about upgraded a 3 park pass to a 4 park pass. This was the response
However, because we do not have any information regarding Epic Universe tickets and how that park may fit into our Annual Passes, I would unfortunately have no way of confirming if you would be able to upgrade a pass that is purchased now to a pass that would include that park as well. Once information on ticketing for Epic Universe becomes available, we would be able to answer that question more definitely, I do apologies we are not able to at this time.
Iâm seeing pictures of TMs exiting and queuingâŠ
Iâve only read 2 TMs talking about itâŠboth thought it was on par with Despicable Me. (Fun once or twice, but not an E-Ticket)
Thatâs what I was expecting. I want more rides for younger people / families! Itâs great to be a thrill seeking adult, but you need to make things for the next generation of theme park fans!
I love Minion Mayhem. I try to make sure I do it at least once each trip, maybe twice.
The tables are back at Green Eggs & Ham tots!
(I remember having a talk with someone about where to eat here while the tables were gone. I still go to either my alcove by CitH or Backwater Bar for seating with my tots)
Fun enough. Skillable for us, but we also will do it if the lines arenât bad. Biggest issue is motion sickness. Definitely need to have Dramamine in the system for this one. I had to look away from the screen a lot of the time this past May.
DH closed his eyes while we were sitting on the benches.
Thatâs what I did!
