Well, whaddya know — Disney's Hollywood Studios closes to regular folks at 5 PM on Tuesday, October 20 for a private corporate event. Early Entry still starts at 8:30 and the gates open at 9, but plan your evening somewhere else and save the headliners for another day. The build season is showing too: the Tower of Terror's lightning-strike scarring is taking shape under the scaffolding, per photos from October 18 — the Land is growing up around it. For the collectors, the Attraction Alphabet Mystery Pin Pouch is reported in stock at the Studios for $49.99 — 26 letter-shaped designs, five random pins a pack. Verify at your kiosk, since a report ain't a shelf.
