The airship ride must be what was supposed to be on the third level. Guessing those Boos are from the Luigi Mansion level.

I'm really hoping the plan hasn't changed too much. It looks extremely ambitious.

One thing I'm curious, are they going to incorporate elements from MK8 for the attraction? I'd assume they would, as in a way; it'd make sense as people have more memory with that now with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe now on the Switch. It's just something I'm curious of.

One of the things I am albeit surprised, from the leaked photos; seems to be Peaches Castle. What is the approximite height for that?

The floating ship and audience must have been a pipe dream for MK. Too, they only display two persons per vehicle when it should be four. Are these prehistoric concepts?
The art with Wario shows 4 seats in the Ride Vehicle behind him.

I think the one with the airship is an exaggerated one, like they would use for marketing purposes.

Thanks. I go all foggy when I look at concept art.

Regarding flying things, the ride has them... but they are more like gliders as I recall. Too, while there won't be an audience of real people, there may be an audience of somethings.

But that's inaccurate information. It makes no sense. "Hey guys let's leak art of attractions we're not going build!"
I suppose it's a way to create buzz through social media without holding themselves accountable. If they released all of this through an official blog post or whatever, you'll have some upset guests down the line when they show up and there's no Zelda attraction or whatever. If they officially released a bunch of current concept art right now, that's just that much less content to release to keep the buzz going over the next few years. And (as always) I'm sure they're worried about anything they release officially will have some people delaying their vacations. So I do see the potential value in this type of viral marketing.
