The curly arrow thingy is a different-colored arrow that backs the Pathfinder small prize podiums.
They can be close at the top, too.

I think the thing above the Grand Game $10,000 is supposed to be representative of the Grocery Game cash register.  Not sure why I think that.

I had not read about the change in the Race Game curtain before I went out to the taping on the 7th.  I was surprised at how cool-looking it was.

It's beautiful!  I love it!  As a very fashionable man, I know what I'm talking about.  It's awesome!

Wow, that looks so cool!  I first noticed that the Big Wheel has 35 instead of 15; they messed up!  (Although that is probably a nod at the 35th year of The Price is Right).  I wonder what the penny, dime, 50 cent, and $1 thing is supposed to represent.  Still, very colorful and very cool-looking!

Oh my God...that is one of the coolest things I've ever seen.

Just because I'm a dork, though, I've got to point out another error -- the Showcase podium says "SHOWCASE" instead of "SHOWcase".

I totally agree.  I think it's because of the shape of the "cents" like an old fashioned cash register.

No one mentioned Bullseye.  (Or is it On the Spot? :-) )

Here's the big one...does anyone see something from Professor Price?!

Isn't On the Spot temoparily retired?  I doubt a retired game would be used.  It looks more like push over to me with the numbers in the middle.

On the Spot is retired, period.  It's never going to be played again.

But there is definitely something on there from a retired game...

Yes, and looking at it some more...I'd say Finish Line moreso that Professor Price.  Either one is applicable.

I think I just figured out what the "$10,000" thingy is -- it's the price tag from Line em Up.

Yes, the shape of the Finish Line sign is clearly in there, and I'd like to think it was Finish Line over Professor Price because Finish Line was lost for so long.  Now, it's on display every day.

Absolutely magnificant job, it looks so busy compared to the old one.
Roger Dobkowitz's Seven Commandments of The Price Is Right:
1. Tape and edit the show as if it were live.
2. Never tell the contestant what to do.
3. Size matters. (The bigger the prize, the better the prize and the bigger the reaction.)
4. All prizes are good.
5. Never do anything on the show that would embarrass a parent with a kid watching.
6. Never put on a prize that would make the show look cheap.
7. It’s the game, stupid! (It’s about the game.)

Im guessing the penny, dime thing represents Pocket Change.
