Just got back from my trip. I'll do a more detailed review post, but Monsters Unchained was in pretty rough shape Friday - both pre shows down, as well as Ygor, the first frank, escaping dracula, and mummy animatronics all down.

Looking at the Touring Plan apps., Monsters has had more downtime the past two weeks than it had before. Mario has had more downtime too.
Ministry has had some really good days, but some really bad tech days. Kind of feast or famine with Ministry downtime lately.

Monsters was down for a bit today, however when it came back up, I got on with a 10 minute wait. Pre-show were both 100% working with both Frank and Victoria AA's up and running. I also didn't notice a single animatronic down on the ride. All the Dracula AA's were working, as was Gill-man. I'm so glad I got the full experience for my first ride.

I’ve seen every AA work except the final Dracula. Need to get back sometime.

I've brought it up before, but it's really interesting how the conversation around Unchained at this point revolves almost entirely around which aspects weren't operating on any specific run. I hear so little discussion of people's thoughts on what was working, or the overall ride experience for them. It's an unfortunate aspect of what I believe to be the best ride at the resort.

None of the animatronics really have a presentable B-mode. You just come face to face with a static figure that you know is supposed to do something.

They need an alternative like the Rise of the Resistance ending when Kylo Ren isn't working. Your ride vehicle literally faces away from the broken animatronic and you still get something to watch and carry the story along.
