Universal Orlando Construction Update: Seven Little Duffs Arrive at Springfield USA

Recently we brought you a sneak peak at the Kang & Kodos ride opening soon at Universal Studios Florida's new Springfield U.S.A. area. Tonight, we have exclusive first photos of another element of the park's Simpsons-themed expansion.
The "Seven Little Duffs" are artificial topiaries that have been installed outside Duff Gardens, an outdoor eatery inspired by Homer's favorite brewery. As you can see, Tipsy, Queasy, Surly, Sleazy, Edgy, Dizzy and Remorseful are all represented in what is sure to be a popular phtoto-op among fans. You can also spot the statue of Jebadiah Springfield behind them; thankfully no one has stolen his head...yet.

Crew members have been murmuring that the area might open this Friday (8/2/2013), so you should soon be able to see the Seven Little Duffs in person for yourself. Just remember to beware of Surly, because "Surly only looks out for one guy ... Surly!"
Finally, here's a follow-up look at Kang & Kodos' Twirl 'n' Hurl. As you can see, the tentacles around the perimeter of the ride, which will hold the attraction's interactive elements, have been installed.
