Re: Disney's California Adventure Project Tracker

MousePlanet recently got a sneak peek behind the Toy Story Mania! construction wall.

They published images in their weekly park update
MousePlanet: A peek inside Toy Story Midway Mania
After the debut of Playhouse Disney and the Pixar Play Parade, Disney invited members of the media behind the construction walls surrounding the Toy Story Midway Mania attraction to get a peek at the queue, ride vehicles and the Mr. Potato Head Boardwalk Barker figure. Unfortunately, Mr. Potato Head wasn't quite ready to meet the press, but we hope these photos will help satisfy your curiosity until the soft-opening previews begin in late April.

Re: Disney's California Adventure Project Tracker

Wow, looks great! I only wish the signage inside the queue were more ornate and not so flat.

Seasons of the Vine Closing
Seasons of the Vine in the Barrel Room at the Golden Vine Winery will have its final performance on March 30.

This leads new weight to Al Lutz' reports that the Seasons of the Vine theatre is being looked at as the future home for the Resort Preview Center, which will showcase future projects coming to the property, especially the DCA remodel and expansion.

Monorail Blew: DCA Update
And what of that DCA Preview Center everyone is waiting to arrive so they can see all of the WDI sketches and models for themselves? Well, it's moved again. As we mentioned in a previous update, the preview center was first being proposed for the empty San Francisco row houses, only to be booted from there when the Little Mermaid ride grew in scale so much that it overtook the adjacent bathrooms. Then there was a proposal to house the preview center exhibits in a temporary tent out in the Esplanade, in almost the same place as the original DCA Preview Center of 10 years ago.
But now it looks like the Preview Center will be going into the Seasons Of The Vine theater at the Golden Vine Winery.
[...] The theater will have to be reconfigured to house the exhibits and displays, and it may be a bit smaller than the San Francisco building, but at least they can get this fledgling concept off the ground and open to curious DCA visitors. Let's just hope that DCA park management has the good sense to staff the center with Cast Members who are specifically trained to work that location, instead of having overworked servers trying to operate a theater attraction in between tables.


Here's hoping Al's news is right and we'll be seeing a preview center in the coming months!

Following up on this...

David "Darkbeer" Michael reported in his 3/17 Monday in the Parks column the following:
3/17/08 - Monday in the Parks - News, Photos and Tips
http://micechat.com/forums/blog.php?b=299


Seasons of the Vine will close Sunday, March 30th to allow for the building to be converted to a DCA Preview Center, scheduled to open in June, to match up with the opening of Toy Story Mania! So this is your last chance to see the movie, if you can find someone to open it up for you. One hint, try and check around the top of the hour to see if a CM is available to operate the attraction.

--------------
If Darkbeer's info is right, and it typically is, then the Preview Center will be arriving earlier than expected. The attraction was originally scheduled to open fall 2008 in the San Francisco Street buildings across from Golden Dreams. Now, with the attraction's relocation, it seems like it will be opening sooner than anticipated.

Exciting!

Re: Disney's California Adventure Project Tracker

You know, I have never set foot in the Golden Vine Winery. Sounds funny, but I'm confident I am not alone! I look forward to the near future, when this prime real estate in DCA will suddenly be subject to my frequent patronage! That the Preview Center might be coming sooner than expected is very exciting news indeed!

Re: Disney's California Adventure Project Tracker

I used the bathrooms at the winery once. They were nice.


I want to eat there, but we just never do (the restaurant, not the bathroom ).

Re: Disney's California Adventure Project Tracker

I've seen the wine movie a couple of times. It's not really too exciting, kind of like an informercial done in the EPCOT style.

Well, from what I've been hearing (on here & from friends), the Electrical Parade may actually move back to Disneyland. Just a rumor of course...
