I would be happy to think that it is getting a much needed refurb. It definately needs allot of cleaning up and some reworking of the audio. 9 months does seem a little long but as many have said it seems to be a ride that only once per visit is enough so I don't think it will be missed too much. (and lol 9 months.. the thought of newborn dolls ..too funny! .. & for some how scary
)
