RCPro has posted some nice pics of Manta. They have opened up some of the paths now. So I think the only things that are blocked off now is the station and the splash down section... and now to the pics!

An overall of the first half and you can see the new path

A neat area to see the bottom of the pretzel loop

Overall of the last half... still more construction

And finally more work on the station/aquarium

And like always you can always go over to RCPro and look at the rest of the pics.

Enjoy!

Looks like a lot to still be done with the animal attraction.

That is insanelt close to the Pretzel Loop. Wow. And I love how they are theming it so that the coaster feels at "home," instead of really sticking out like a sore thumb.

I'm not a big fan of flying coasters, but I am looking forward to riding this thing. From the test runs I have seen on line, It looks like the cars just float though the air.

Orlando Sentinel has posted some new pics on their site. It's almost done! A few more details and walkways need to be finished it looks like. I'm so glad it's almost done and I can't wait to see some POV vidoes! Here's the link to the update:
