Taking the kid to this in September. Has anyone else done it? It looks amazing and the kind of thing which would have changed my life had it been around in the 70's.

I think I saw some footage of the animatronics being built for this, and it's really spectacular stuff. I want my own robo-raptor suit!

I saw some YouTube footage of it after I read about it on another board, it looks spectacular. Only a little over an hour long from what I read, but everyone said it was totally worth it.

Yeah, same here. First I'd heard of this. If I were 6 again this would've been the most amazing thing in the world, but I'd love to take my little cousins to this instead.

That looks flippin' sweet. Too bad they're not coming to Texas.

Just went and saw it in Spokane. My favorite part was with mimes in raptor bodysuits. Damn raptors having knees that bend the wrong way. Sholda just had the actors run backward.

It was pretty damn cool. A friend's 2 year old was scared for about four minutes, and then had probably more fun than I did.

I want to see this. California dates soon?

Even though I get fucking scared when I go into dinosaur exhibits. Hell, the sounds of the website freak me out. Fuck, I need to see this bad.

So that's what these were for: http://chud.com/forums/showthread.php?t=98340

Shit, is Atlanta the closest it's coming to Orlando in 2007?

Looks A-mazing.

Come on, we all know our ancestors actually did walk with the dinosaurs.

Never even heard of this until now. Looks pretty cool, and it's worth the fact that "Walk the Dinosaur" will be playing in my head for the rest of the day.

Just found out that this is coming to the Resch Center here in Green Bay in December. Tickets are $27 and they go on sale September 15th. All I can say is Merry Christmas to me!

Lucky bastard! I've got a wedding in NJ to go to 10 days after they'll be in East Rutherford. Nuts.

I saw a commercial for this on Noggin but its playing down in Charlotte (and probably already happened).

My wife is actually making me look up the Wiggles show.

It's coming to Detroit in November. It looks cool, but I'm not sure it's worth $40-$60 to watch some robot dinosaurs.

That looks incredibly cool. At the risk of being a complete brown-noser, I sent the link to my boss. He's got a seven year old son who would probably love to go.

It was a pretty awesome experience. The booming audio presentation was a little intense for some of the younger kids there and they 1st introduce some cute baby dinos hatching early on in the show and then immediately toss them into the "Circle of Life" (nom nom), but my daughter (4) did really well considering. The robo-puppets had such mass and weight to them (skin and bulk hanging and swaying), and the set was creatively done (inflatable trees/vegetation).

Expensive ($60 a ticket), but if you get a chance to go, do it. We had great seats at the Orlando Amway Arena (not a bad seat in the house) and a fun time.

Looks like this is coming to Phoenix, but not until next September. Interesting the way their site makes it look like you'd be able to buy tickets this far in advance but of course you can't. I'll have to keep watching and make sure I have some disposable cash tucked away next summer when they probably will go on sale.
