It just seemed like they didn't price gouge there. I can't remember now exactly how much they were, but I remember thinking they seemed fairly resonable.TokyoMagic!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16340756514811789233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2440013033477237104.post-212480439940940992008-10-04T15:54:00.000-07:002008-10-04T15:54:00.000-07:00My recollection is that the design of the ride sor...My recollection is that the design of the ride sort of prevented it somehow. I don't know what's different about Countdown that allows it. When Indy opened the Merchandise department tried to get the photo location in there, but it wouldn't work.<BR/><BR/>Park management sometimes loses sight of diminishing returns. I'm sure the revenue per rider goes down with each new location. I would be curious to know what impact the photo locations have on per capita spending.<BR/><BR/>WDW was testing including on-ride photos with Photopass last year. Heopfully that system comes to DL. Did you know that the DL and WDW Photopass System is shared? When you get back from WDW you can go to DL and save $50 by buying it here! Any pictures taken at DL will also be included (pictures are deleted after 30 days).<BR/><BR/>I've never bought an on-ride photo, but there is definitely a demand. The daily gross revenue for the Splash Mountain photo was about $50,000 when it opened!Westcot2000https://www.blogger.com/profile/00465771382648041516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2440013033477237104.post-75050924669300774742008-10-02T22:43:00.000-07:002008-10-02T22:43:00.000-07:00Hi Westcot...I tried doing that when I rode the at...Hi Westcot...I tried doing that when I rode the attraction at Animal Kingdom. It started out easy, but because of the darness, I lost track of where I was in comparison to the Indy ride. Animal Kingdom also takes your pic at the end of the ride, don't they? I'm surprised DL in Anaheim doesn't do that. I'm sure it would bring in a lot of money for them....and it seems that's what they are all about now. There must be some technical reason why they don't.TokyoMagic!https://www.blogger.com/profile/16340756514811789233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2440013033477237104.post-2946832939996393802008-10-02T21:43:00.000-07:002008-10-02T21:43:00.000-07:00Thanks for the pictures. Countdown to Extinction ...Thanks for the pictures. Countdown to Extinction at Animal Kingdom also uses the same track layout as Indiana Jones! It's not obvious due to the rearrangement of interior walls, but next time you ride try to look for the similarities.Westcot2000https://www.blogger.com/profile/00465771382648041516noreply@blogger.com
