While gettin' my hair-did, my stylist told me all about how she was excited for the new Fallon ride. Kong had excited and enticed her, but Falon was getting her to buy a ticket - an AP at that.

Walls are starting to come down near the gift shop. Wouldn't be surprised if the shop opens before the ride does as it's looking awfully close there.

I'm really hoping that they do something with the remaining spots where facade is not covering. I wish the facade covered it all but it seems it will not.

It's looking like it will be painted grey, but that's it. Better than the ugly (and out of place) color it is right now at least.

Grey is fine and will look much better than Disaster had also. That area is so out of sight you barely notice it. You'd only notice if you went to the bathroom or were looking from the sound lawn.

I was in the NBC store in NY last month and the prices were.. yeah. I'll wait for my 20% AP discount (or is it 15% now?)

Didn't someone mention that a mural would be painted on the side?

That was someone's conjecture from the vague concept art.

I wouldn't be be surprised if there will be 1-3 large posters promoting NBC television shows.

TBH, I am having a feeling that while the building will be painted a grey to atleast mask the building; I could see those billboards from the past come back but in a new light..

I can't tell if I'm reading too much into this but do you mean giant backlit posters?

Cause that would be kind of awesome from a technical point of view.

I mean that more in what was there before. But, it would be redone to make sense onto the building while also reflecting that side of the Music Plaza.

Its just a guess, but something does tell me they saved the painting of that side for last due to that they still have to add onto it.

EDIT: I have potentially more to back up what I am suggesting, as I point to a pic from @AliciaStella and her blog post earlier this week.

If you notice, when they started painting the building with the grey coat of paint, you could see above one portion of the ride facade multiple spots marked out in rectangle spots. Seven to be precise. Now, lets look at the Twister facade.

In another spot, you can see that there are seven billboards onto the Twister Soundstage when it was operational at the time. It's also at a similar height to what it was before the additional buildings were added onto the soundstage for Fallon. It's the little things you may notice that could indicate why I bring it up in the first place.

I can be wrong, but I am sure to bet that we will see those murals back; either in a new color or exactly the same as it was before, just with the grey paint job that the building will be receiving to mask the building it was before..

I believe that you are just seeing where they have repaired the anchor holes from the previous billboards.

Perhaps, but I wouldn't be questioning it if it was done in that type of manner of the seven posters lining up with the rectangle boxes. It could be the anchor holes repaired and that the building being entirely grey; but a part of me wants to think otherwise. At least, until we see more work progress or someone says of that in my opinion.

Goodness, I forgot how ugly this building was before. If nothing else, the facade alone has already made this worth it.

Actually, wait. Forget it. It's a awful piece of trash facade that doesn't fit with the area as it appears very tacky with that giant sign of TWISTER on the side of the building.

I'm actually looking forward to this attraction....probably a ride once per visit type of ride, but still something that intrigues me.
