Preload Texture Atlases Completion Handler not working - swift

Question

I have a UIImageView for the user to look at (looks almost like a splash screen) come up so that I can preload my texture atlases.
But it seems that in the completion block, even though I say to 'removefromsuperview' it doesn't do so.
I know that the textures have finished loading because if I tap the screen the UIImageView goes away and my game starts, but it won't go away on its own for some odd reason.
Here is my viewDidLoad inside my GameViewController:
//Configure the View
let skView = view as! SKView
skView.multipleTouchEnabled = false
self.view.exclusiveTouch = false
//Create and Configure the scene
scene = GameScene(size: skView.bounds.size)
scene.scaleMode = .AspectFill
//Load "SPLASH SCREEN"
let image: UIImage = UIImage(named: "ViewControllerImage")!
GameViewController.splashView = UIImageView(image: image)
GameViewController.splashView!.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,self.view.bounds.width,self.view.bounds.height)
self.view.addSubview(GameViewController.splashView!)
SKTextureAtlas.preloadTextureAtlases([GameViewController.diploTextureAtlas,GameViewController.bieberTextureAtlas,GameViewController.skrillexTextureAtlas,GameViewController.sunTextureAtlas], withCompletionHandler: { () -> Void in
print("Completo")
GameViewController.splashView?.removeFromSuperview()
skView.presentScene(self.scene)
})

Try this code:
//Configure the View
let skView = view as! SKView
skView.multipleTouchEnabled = false
self.view.exclusiveTouch = false
//Create and Configure the scene
scene = GameScene(size: skView.bounds.size)
scene.scaleMode = .AspectFill
//Load "SPLASH SCREEN"
let image: UIImage = UIImage(named: "ViewControllerImage")!
GameViewController.splashView = UIImageView(image: image)
GameViewController.splashView.tag = 666
GameViewController.splashView!.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,self.view.bounds.width,self.view.bounds.height)
self.view.addSubview(GameViewController.splashView!)
SKTextureAtlas.preloadTextureAtlases([GameViewController.diploTextureAtlas,GameViewController.bieberTextureAtlas,GameViewController.skrillexTextureAtlas,GameViewController.sunTextureAtlas], withCompletionHandler: { () -> Void in
print("Completo")
for view in self.view!.subviews {
if view.tag == 666 {
view.removeFromSuperview()
}
}
skView.presentScene(self.scene)
})
You can change for cycle also with:
if let viewWithTag = self.view.viewWithTag(666) {
viewWithTag.removeFromSuperview()
}
