Universal Studios Hollywood Update - 4-10-2015

Picture
We were up at Universal Studios Hollywood yesterday for a closer look at Springfield, which we'll be sharing for you at a later date, but if you missed any of the pictures we posted be sure to check out our Facebook page. 
Today we'll mostly be looking at Wizarding World, which is starting to get more landscaping done in advance of it's opening next year. 

Trees have been added to the hill down towards the Studio Tour. This is going to be a nice natural barrier between Hogsmead/Hogwarts and the Studio Tour. 
Picture
These will fill in quite nicely over the next few years. 
Picture
Picture
More framing for Hogwarts has gone up since our last update. Should start seeing details very soon. 
Picture
Picture
Picture
Flying Hippogriff and Hagrids Hut will be in there somewhere. 
Picture
This really is going to be a nice view. 
Picture
Moving over to Hogsmeade, the buildings on this side look to be pretty much done, at least from the outside. 
Picture
But just to the left, more scaffolding and details being added. 
Picture
Not sure I'll ever get used to seeing a Springfield light post and Hogsmeade building in the same picture.

Our look at the arch for this update. 
Picture
From outside the park, doesn't look much different. =)
Picture
Lots of stuff ready to be moved over to Hogsmeade/Hogwarts.

Moving on from Wizarding World, Fast and Furious Supercharged continues to get ready for it's June debut. Rumors are that Disaster at Universal Studios Orlando will be getting a Fast and Furious attraction, which makes sense. I'd imagine they'll use the same "tram" set-up although it'd be nice to see them get something unique. 
Picture
Picture
Shipping Containers have been added to the exit of the attraction. I've only seen the first two movies, is this related to one of them?

Some great new merchandise has been added for the celebration of the Studio Tour's 50th.
Picture
Picture
Picture
This has to be one of my favorite things ever.

As a hat guy, I totally love this. 
Picture

Moving out side the park, the new parking structures are continuing to grow. 
Picture
Tommy's will now be a Smashburger
Picture
They've FINALLY moved the crosswalk from the Red Line station which should make it easier for both cars and pedestrians until the bridge is completed. You now only have to cross one side of the street to get to the shuttle up the hill. 
Picture
They were moving some dirt around for the new hotel as well. 
Picture
Alright, that's going to wrap it up for this update, we won't have another USH update for a couple of weeks due to Star Wars Celebration next week. But we'll be running the Springfield stuff as soon as we get the ok to do so. 

Thanks for reading and for all the great support.
