Holo-Girl (Part 4)


So here is the final installment of my Holo-Girl series. I believe one of these photos was already published by Hoot in an earlier post, but I decided to go ahead and post it again here in my series so they are all right here together. And even though this completes my offering of our favorite miniature animatronic, Hoot may have more pictures of her to post in the future. :)




And here, as promised is the awesome video shot that Hoot got that should once and for all help those who may still be a bit confused, as to where she was located. Feel free to rewind to about 1:15 and watch it over and over and over, I do! :) Enjoy!



Hope everyone has a fun and safe 4th of July weekend!

Holo-Girl (Part 2)

Ok, so here we are, up on the catwalk looking back down into the 'living room'. We are basically right above the ride track, looking to the 'left' if you will.


And now I am looking to the 'right', and if you look real close at this picture, in the upper right hand corner, you can see someones elbow, hrmm, I wonder who that is? :) Also in this picture, pay attention to the gray box, with some electrical connection coming out of it. It will help put the next photo into perspective.

Why, it is none other than your captain, Hoot Gibson! hehe This is the photo being used in his profile currently. Again, notice the gray box in the lower left corner. Also in this photo, notice the mirror just below Hoot, it looks like a corner is broken off, you will see this mirror again in a couple photos I have coming up in a future part of my Holo-Girl posts. And I have no idea how/why the corner is broken off, just pointing it out because it makes it easy to remember and recognise.

Holo-Girl (Part 1)

I am going to revisit the "Holo-Phone Girl" (or whatever you want to call her, cool farmer girl doll, etc...) with a series of photos I have. Hoot posted one of our best pictures of her in an earlier post. Early on in our adventures, when we were still worried about gaps, and getting back to our car in time, etc... getting to this figure to get some decent photos almost seemed impossible.

We needed a gap of empty cars large enough ahead of us and behind us to allow us to jump out, run ahead to the living room entrance, then run thru the living room, up the stairs behind 'dad' on the organ, climb up a ladder, take a picture, then run all the way back and hope no new guests were just coming around the corner to the future living room. Phew. Needless to say, early on, we only tried this a couple times I think. But that didnt matter once we started 'staying in' the ride, then we could hang out as long as we wanted with the doll. :)

Anyways, the photo above is of course standing in the stairwell looking back down at 'dad' on the organ. And then the next one here is a little further up that stairwell, still looking down.

And then below is one of me standing on the ladder, looking back down at Hoot, who just happens to be wearing my backpack. You can see the stairs (red carpet) in the top part of the photo. I will probably post three or so pictures in each part after this, I have a total of fourteen to post from my collection, and I know Hoot has plenty more. I also plan on ending this multi-part series with a really awesome video clip that Hoot shot of the doll, from the pathway in front of the ride vehicles. Its a really quick shot, but it is still one of my favorites.
