 That Shop is the "Discount" Shop of the Park. It is called "Big Wheel Deal's" All the clearance stuff of the Park will be sold there.

Whats that tower ??? Is that in the middle of the helix? But i have to say the auger of doom dissapointed me. They portraied it as a much bigger menacing, well, auger. Unless the camera makes it look smaller than it is. But the sign really pleased me. :golfclap:

/\ LOL

I'll have to wait and see it for myself.  I know the support columns for the ride are rather large themselves so when comparing it to those, it may be plenty large.  So I'd wait and see on that :).

I wonder how close were actually going to the auger during the ride? I hope not as close as El Toros first drop. Those wooden poles scare the crap out of me!

  Look at the Seetheride Blueprint Shot. It looks as if the Auger will be staight thru the middle of the Corkscrew's (the red line on the blueprint) I know it will spin, but it would be cool if it rises as well.

You have the shields, plus the prop fly-throughs, and the auger.  Headchoppers galore!

For those of you that were wondering, the Auger is now up and in place. I do not have any pictures of it but it is there and it is fairly large.

The blue wagon now has square wheels and it looked like there was a horse of some sort near the entrance.

 The Bluprint is in the pics. on Seetheride.com. I will be at the Park Friday morning, I will get some more shot's of the week's progress, I am sure there has been alot done this week with the nice Weather. And one very cool thing that I did not get ant shot's of was the "backside" of the Bizarro sign, it say's "I'm Your Hero Now" With a picture of the Bizarre one. You can see it from The Runaway Train.

 SFNEOnline has a video of the Shield Tunnel's LED's lit, and it is AWESOME!!! It is in their Bizarro Thread, from a YouTube Video.

The LED shields do indeed look nice (even during the day).
They really should have placed our shields closer to the entrance or queue.
I can't wait to meet the Auger of Doom.

^I agree the Shields would have looked great right after the Zero-g and before the cobra roll. They will still be awesome at the the bottom of the drop though.

I wonder how they are goingto get that auger of doom spinning.  Thats a big object to spin in such little space.

This is actually looking good. I am officially excited to ride this now, not that I wasn't already.
