Islands of Adventure Update: More Coaster Track Installed
Universal's Islands of Adventure will be under the spotlight this summer, thanks to the return of The Incredible Hulk Coaster and the debut of the completely new Reign of Kong themed area that is still under construction near Jurassic Park.
This afternoon we will take a look at the progress that has been done in the area occupied by The Incredible Hulk Coaster while also exploring the other themed areas of the park to see what's new and what has changed since our last visit.

The Jeep and Mercedes SUV's were back on Sunday the 7th, and on the bus ride back to Cabana Bay Resort you could clearly see a large portion of the rear of The Hulk Coaster had been installed!
ReplyDeleteAny idea on when Dudley is supposed to reopen from its refurb?
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your updates! Much appreciated!
The hulk track has a slightly different layout on the backside than the original. It will be interesting to see what they do with the indoor queue.
ReplyDeleteDifferent layout? No, looks like the exact same layout. I hope you are right, but looks the same
ReplyDeleteGreat pics. Can you get some of the new water park and hotel on your next trip?
ReplyDeleteYour pics were already outdated when you posted them because they are moving so fast. They have already completed most of the track on the backside and have even put one of the loops together. check this link of an update done on 2-10-16 and it shows all the progress they have done so far. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4_6emo1JvM
