Actually in the original thread it has been said that it still has programming and testing to do. So a chance of it appearing this week is are very slim.

how did its status go from being repaired, to repairs complete and being programmed,and then to having steel work done, then back to testing, and now testing and programing having not even being done?

This is what Darkbeer said yesterday:

Murphy had a problem a few days ago in a test session.

The crew is trying to get her to 100% as quickly as they can.

When they get it working 100%, then Full Dress Rehersals will happen for a few days (and more than likely when word will get out to the boards, as there is a large group of folks who will have to work the shows and a good chance one or two will spill the beans). The Dress Rehersals are important for safety and to get the timing down just right.

After a few Dress Rehersals that go well in a row, then Murphy should make its public appearence.

So if Murphy gets fixed this week, there is still a week or so of Rehearsals after park closing before a public performance.

So I wouldn't count on seeing Murphy for at least a couple of weeks, but there is no way anyone can tell when Murphy will be at 100%...

One piece of good news, the park will start closing earlier next week, allowing more time to work and test Murphy.....

The suspense is killing me!!!! I just hope that she will debut before I get there toward the end of September.

Im really starting to think Murphy was never really ready....

After al the push backs on when it will come out I wouldn't be suprised if it comes out next year.

I'm just glad I was able to see the old "vintage" dragon at Disneyland.

I just hope they have it going when we go in October!

Possibly not; the "malfunction" may have been a story just to use as an excuse for it's incompleteness.

Me too, but darn me for not getting a good enough seat to see Bucky last time!
