A model of the Wheel of Creation, based on the K'Nex Ferris Wheel toy set.
In the heart of the Energy in Motion Pavilion presented by K'Nex is a sprawling 55 foot tall Ferris wheel marking the center of the Entropy Labs Fair exhibit. As guests enter the pavilion, their eyes dart towards the towering multi-colored structure, as it beckons guests to walk its way.
Flanked on both sides by switchback queues, guests can ride two spins on the wheel rising high into the ceiling atrium of the pavilion and getting a look down below at many of the new attractions and exhibits on display for Epcot.
The attraction will have an hourly capacity of 450 guests and will be seasonally themed as well, particularly for Pi Day on March 14th. It also marks Epcot's first flat ride which will prompt further development of Epcot's attraction lineup over the years to come both in Future World and World Showcase to add more smaller scale attractions for crowd spacing purposes.
A model of the Electric Express, based on the K'Nex Twisted Lizard rollercoaster toy set.
For 'junior' riders not up for the thrills of The Examiner, Epcot's first junior coaster will also be housed inside the Energy in Motion Pavilion. Designed by Vekoma, akin to The Examiner, this attraction will be designed after the various junior coaster K'Nex sets that Entropy Labs has been experimenting with.
On the ride, guests will ascend to 35 feet inside the atrium, before swerving through curves, bunny hops, and eventually a 360 curve into the brake run. All in all, this 45-second experience will be a crowd-pleaser for the little ones while their older siblings go on The Examiner. Guests must be 35" to ride this attraction.
