    While not directly theme park related, this recent incident on Royal Caribbean’s Icon of the Seas is worth noting given the similarities in slide technology that’s has been used in some parks here. A section of one of the ship’s drop slides (the Frightening Bolt) has broken mid-course, with water gushing from the gap. apparently no one was injured, and the slide has since been closed. Still, it is quite alarming to see such a structural failure on a brand-new attraction.

    It looks temporary probably because it is. Through the many discussions I’ve had with park management in recent years, they don’t like doing this half assed, and if things don’t look up to scratch to us, then the park will probably agree and will be working on something more permanent when they have the resources and money to do so.

    We have well and truly understood your opinion dude.

    There was staging lights they were temp . The ones in tunnel have been there for months . They have a lighting issue and this appears there solution . Would be silly to buy and install lights in this way for one event .

    Dreamworld is a major partner for the current This is Gold Coast 2025 https://experiencegoldcoast.com/business-events/tigc25 They had a drone show in the carpark so it's probably just a temporary setup for the event https://www.instagram.com/skylighterfireworks/reel/DM7i9dzx_zM/?hl=en

    I don't believe it's permanent because this isn't the standard of work we have been witnessing at DW.

    right, so another enthusiast with a differing opinion. Unless the park is saying it's permanent - i'm happy with my own opinion.

    Source? Given, as has been pointed out, the lighting truss and moving heads along the river - it does seem like they are set for a specific event. They have their gatsby fundraiser coming up - though it does seem a bit far away - but maybe more light was needed for the restaurant night trade (can't imagine the moving heads would be for that though). Nothing about anything i've seen so far says permanent. If it is a fix for a lighting problem, i'm assuming it's still temporary until the permanent solution is fabricated - Though I will say i've been in Rivertown at night without these and I didn't feel like the lighting was lacking.

    Unfortunately not temporary . Looks like a cheap attempted fix to a lighting problem

    Can't tell if ur joking or not but if u aren't well then im being 100% serious there are actual logos i made for scooby coasters 2025 refurb In fact here's the concept of the sign i made
  18. Spotty
    There was a path back of house, and a door with a lock. Once inside the mountain there was a small fire corridor that took you into the booth.

    Ah man, I made some logos for the revamped ride for village to use. This new logo looks cool tho! Here I'll send a link of the logos I made for it https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-8TknJEsQciCR0EvpyhlXShhvq1EMCSr

    MW have the opportunity to have the number 1 family coaster on the coast again. How this ride turns out, will tell us the real state of MW.

    Love the new logo and so glad they got rid of the next generation name. Fingers crossed the original entry sign returns (or something just as good). And their choice of wording saying ‘the original spooks’ gives me hope. Not going to hype this up to much for myself because Village are known to hype things up and then disappoint.
  23. Park Addict 93
    Socials and website have been updated to reveal a new logo and teased its “coming soon”. Hopefully that means a September-October opening. https://movieworld.com.au/attractions/scooby-doo-spooky-coaster This is the other option, they have pushed out advertising now simply because they see the progress/success of Dreamworld’s King Claw campaign.

    Getting a written warning for that is insane lol. So how did you guys get into the booths then I'm assuming it would be part of the path near the backwards drop right?
  25. Spotty
    There was always a window, and you couldn't see into the booth from the ride when it was in normal operation unless you really looked for them. I got a written warning for that incident though from an ex park manager who was always very grumpy. Some people may know exactly who I'm talking about, shares a name with an ex wiggle lol. The other operators thought it was hilarious, and the riders did too.

    I know rides entering QLD have to comply with: AS 3533 EN 13814-1 ISO 17842-1 ATSM F2291 "includes assessing the loads on critical components" where is this completed in Australia, and who is doing it? I know who verifies all of Mack Rides calculations and the company isn't based in Australia.
  28. DaptoFunlandGuy
    Don't encourage him.

    I did say "these days" being present tense. Important to note, particularly in QLD significant changes have occurred since 2015 with regards to the legislation and the introduction of the code of practice. There is a greater responsibility on all parties involved in the process, the engineer, the operator and the regulator. Love your optimism though...
