Diary of a Wookiee: New Additions to Springfield in Hollywood

Hello hello!

Of course I write that and my brain is instantly singing “you say goodbye and I say hello… hello hello”… but anyhoo… HI FRIENDS!!!

So the Wild West has gone on to history where some feel it belongs (present company excluded) and now we all wait for the next big thing.  This isn’t the post where I blab about what I think is next because frankly, I think it was said in a not so subtle hint, and honestly I don’t care what they do.  New stuff to me is good stuff and I love this game  even when they swing and miss (thinking of Whacking Day shenanigans).  I may be a bit bitter about all the rocks leaving the crafting menu before I thought they would and missing out on more stuff to build a desert or emulate some of your designs but I’ll get over it.  Today’s diary is just me sharing some pics of new stuff I saw in Springfield from a recent trip (26 May 16) I made to Universal Studios in Hollywood.  If that sounds good to you… let’s go!

Springfield USA in Hollywood… Wookiee Style

Hello hello…

So way back about a month ago, I shared with all of you info about the opening of Springfield at Universal Studios Hollywood.  My beautiful mother and sister took some photos as I was otherwise engaged in the East Coast but as promised, I literally got off the plane in LAX and went straight to USH to see the amazingness for myself.  Of course, since then, real life, work and TSTO events got in the way of sharing what i saw with y’all, but in another case of better late than never, I’m finally writing about it.  Without further ado, here’s a bunch of pictures with some thoughts from me. the-simpsons-springfield Continue reading

Where Did THOSE Come From – New Krustyland Stuff

Oh Krustyland… how I love thee.  Is it your shabby likeness to my beloved House of Mouse or is it your fabulous connection to Universal Studios?  I don’t know that it even matters.  I am an admitted theme park enthusiast and having one in my favorite mobile game makes me incredibly happy.  Literally as I write this I can hear the 9:30 fireworks from the Happiest Place on Earth.  Theme parks rock except for losing my phone at Six Flags last week, that stunk lol.

A lot of tappers have mentioned they wanted KL to get more love and I am so thrilled that EA came through with this latest level.  4 new rides and another decoration plus a free character… Wowza.  For this post, we’re gonna take a look at just where all these new things come from.

What a Wookiee Wants: More Krustyland Ideas

What do you call Chewbacca when he has chocolate stuck in his hair?

A Chocolate Chip Wookiee.

Sorry, had to share but does that make me a cheesey poof Wookiee?  Consider that as the world turns lol.  Anywho… I realized it had been a while since I did one of these WAWW posts and figured I’d use some of my extra photos from my latest sojourn to Krustyland in Hollywood to bring out some ideas.
