shopDisney remains the worst online shopping experience there is. The D23 Epcot poster releases are ridiculous at this point.

It's their International shipping fees that prohibit me from every purchasing from shopDisney. Other companies ship for a much more reasonable fee.
I could care less about shipping fees. Their nonsense with limited edition items is infuriating.

Skyplex Orlando News
Seems it is still moving forward despite Covid. The project is now being named Lionsgate World Resort. Construction is scheduled to start early next year for an opening date in 2024, and it’s still located next to the Orlando Eye. The new plans still include building the worlds tallest rollercoaster at either 580 or 649 feet, internal documents list both heights for the Intamin coaster.

A classic Land Rover Series II I believe. That is awesome. I'd love to take a Land Rover Defender through Kilimanjaro Safaris lol.

While I understand your frustration and agree that things need to change, it does not discredit the challenges others have too. I just tried to purchase 2 masks for $11.99 and the shipping fee was an additional $24.50!!! Just saying, ShopDisney has a variety of challenges to it.

Nice. Just sent this one to my daughter's Kindle. She loves the Amidala one that was free last year and the Ahsoka book is still one of her favorites. Female leads... at 11 she's just a sucker for a strong female lead! So proud of that...

In case anyone needed to know, both the DVC and AP 30% off discounts are available online and are stackable with the Disney Rewards Visa discount that just came for 20% off $50 or more.

So this makes it feel like there will be a new story element to the Safari then. Seems like a lot of time/work/money spent to just "enhance" the background of the ride.
So any rumors on what that story element may be?

No one really knows. We’ve seen this being built since the parks reopened. Seems whatever animal was in this area (I believe it was a deer of some sort) has been moved out for a while now. They’re either going to keep this area animal free so they added some scenery, or they’re moving a new animal into that enclosure.
Cant see them doing too much with story. They eliminated most of the story long ago with the poachers (thankfully). Now if they would stop calling the concrete pillars termite mounds and the concrete tree a baobab, the ride would be perfect!
Rumor is some type of goat. It’s unclear though.

That would be fun and provide lots of great pics too as goats love to climb!

Can't be Tom Brady's retirement house. Reports of his demise are greatly exagerated!
