While construction continues on the new Universal Studios Store in Universal Orlando Resort’s CityWalk, more and more props are being added to the current store as it is slowly turned into the Universal Legacy Store, which we now know is the store’s official name. Among the most recent new arrivals is an old friend!

This unit had a particularly vintage vibe to it, with typewriters, old clocks, and telephone booths. We’re thinking these might be references to Murder She Wrote. What do you think?

There are now signs hanging throughout the store labeling each section like they might be in a film warehouse.

While some sections are organized by genre, such as “Western”, others are organized by type, like “Household.”

There’s even a straightforward “Costumes” section.

“Plants” and “Tropical” are two different shelves.

One shelf just has lamps and is appropriately subtitled “lights/lighting.”

One of the coolest things about the store were these new videos playing on the screens, which Team Members happened to be testing while we were looking around.

The video displays shipping crates labeled “Universal Legacy Store”, which indicates that’s the store’s official name.

The shipping crates rotate and open, revealing different construction images, concept art pieces, and props.

Among the props and images were vintage Universal Studios Florida advertisements. The one above features Doc Brown, King Kong, and E.T.

This vintage newspaper announces the park’s official opening and has an article to the side about the now defunct Jaws ride.

The original guide maps for Universal Studios Florida were pictured inside one crate.

Unfortunately, the video was just testing, so we only got to watch it for a few minutes, but it seemed like it could go on forever. For a look at even more props in the store, check our previous posts below.
