...and rumor from a cast member has it that the swinging is already locked.

Attractions mag have been watching testing today and it's swinging but not much.

Trains do swing.

Couldn't agree more. They look absolutely fantastic. Like real like animated characters ;)

They mention singing in the video...do we think this could mean some Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs classic hits? I could be a very happy man about that...

Not quite a full POV, but still gives a good idea of the ride.

Looking good. Looks like it gets a decent amount of speed going at times as well.

You at least hear them singing High Ho on one of the videos and it's on the lift hill <3

These animatronics look incredible. I think there's still something slightly odd about their faces. The movements look perfect.

I also think the layout looks really fun. The press opening is within the next few days, will be interesting to hear what fans say of the whole ride experience.

...and here's the full thing. Looks incredible although they are apparently having some audio trouble, but that's all teething problems.

Really enjoy the pacing and logistical planning of the ride. Now if only they still had Snow White's Scary Adventure - it could be a two part ride!

It does look cute and very good use of the space.

They have really made an effort and set the standard for their future rides in terms of effects.

Looks pretty cute, defiantly not what I was hoping for. But those banked turns look like you might get a few positive g.. And with Vekoma being the creator of the ride I have high hopes(Lol Hi Ho!) in it being smooth. Also I like the cars but I wish the swinging was a little faster :( Oh well it is disney. Also it seems sort of like a watered down EE for kids.

Yeah, don't really understand the excitement?

It looks cool for kids and the handful of animatronics are cool, but, it's two scenes linked by some tame coaster sections - not exactly a benchmark.

No one said it was doing as such Ben? Everyone is just happy that it looks like a fun family attraction, which it is meant to be and was always going to be. No one has said it's the best thing since sliced bread or anything like that.

Instead of a 45 year old dark ride with cardboard cutouts we have an amazingly themed cred with state of the art animation that almost everyone in the family will enjoy, that's why there is excitement.

Also, did I mention its a **** cred!

Yeah! I am exited that I will be able to take one of my friend's kid on this because she is just tall enough. And she probably will like it. I would say that it also counts as a cred.... Maybe?
