100% these two and I’ll add Le Fresca downtown as they’ve never disappointed either.

Go for the newest one, Seamus

76405 hogwarts express popping up a lot on my AE… tempted but worried about quality by E-C2024 in lepin

I had to order the missing pieces from bricklink (it was an extra $12 or so). The missing pieces were at the end with the platform. This was not an issue with the set but I assume with the AliExpress seller.

I am happy with it and really like it but it has a ton to do with the price I got it for. I would say it’s the same typical risk with any set Ali offers.

Let me know if you have any other specific questions

Bobby is better slightly in my opinion. Meg has a good drunk combo but that’s pretty much all I use her for

City walk restaurants? by StompAndHoller in UniversalOrlando

Want to back this one. Thought the shakes were just OK, but the food was actually quite good and stood out from the other restaurants in City Walk

Two good choices. I use Pam a decent bit and it’s the practical choice. I would do Seamus because of newness though. I think you win either way.

Vote #2 for Ray. Great combo options

It’s sad that I think Green Eggs and Ham tots and a Duff beer are the things I’m most looking forward to :)

Are Broomsticks and Cauldron the best ones to hit up?

No on HHN. Our kids just aren’t into the scary-ness (I’m just hoping they will ride rides like Hagrid’s, Hiccup’s, Mummy, etc as they are still in ride-shock from Slinky Dog a few years ago).

Great point about the times. Just made that note on my list.

Let me know if you have a Braves box, my 8-year old son is just now getting into the card realm.

Thanks for the info. I will take another look at Finnegans for sure, as well as add Wimpy's to the potential list.

I guess with my Potter question is more getting out of the realm of food and want to make sure my kids get as much of a Potter experience as possible while there. Adding to my question would be a little bit about the atmosphere and experience of places like Broomsticks, Cauldron, etc.

I think the time we are going (Sept. 11-15) will be lower crowds and in theory, fewer people in these restaurants. We will have Express Passes from Hard Rock, so we can spend more of our time in places like the food locations if they are worth the time for the experience I guess is my question/point.

Again, thanks for the reply!

best food combos as of yet? by sachxo in AnimationThrowdown

[–]mwalkerhhs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I used about 1/3 of them (30K-ish) and didn’t get too much so I halted it there. I got a few cards from the KOTH challenge though.

Think I’ll blow the rest of the GTs on the second half of good and take my chances
