Current progress

Good Morning everyone. And welcome to another exciting update of the construction. On Tuesday, I was looking from the Harbour Bridge on the train home, and I went. Oh goodie! A ride that will make me throw up! And that's the Sledgehammer... When I came back today, the poles that were there last week are now assembled. All that's left is the seats, and the loading platform. They've been replacing the boardwalk from Coney Island to Luna Land. This is in preparation for the new gate and sign. Which also looks a bit cartoony. That seems to be the coherent theme of this area. Because

Did somebody say block brake?

Hey everyone, so I just wanted to reply to this conversation I started, today I went to movie world. And the staff were sooooooooo friendly and helpful. At the entry I asked the lady from looking at me which rides did she think I wouldn't fit on. She was so friendly and explained where the harness fits on each ride. She gave me tips for Scooby doo and told me to ask for a harness check for Superman. So the verdict, I did what she and others said and I sat in the back row of Scooby doo, as I sat down I pulled the lap bar down so it clicked and then adjusted myself under it. It was tight b

Got a shot of the rocky themeing. Looks like there will be some half decent decorations!

They have started to pour concrete into the tall form work this morning

This morning’s update Drop has been added after the block zone

As I’ve already said, DC Rivals took 4 months, but that was a much more complex construction process. If there aren’t any delays, I can see track construction complete within 3 months. After that they’ve got to build the station/maintenance building, queue area, landscaping, pathways, theming and then also testing. In the renders/video we have seen all this rock work... what are the chances they will actually build all this I really hope they do, especially on the back of the SkyVoyager building so it isn’t just a white backdrop. And it will make the coaster even more

There will be no theme park that will be able to compete with us’: Movie World plans for a hotel Village Roadshow has reignited its plans for a hotel at Movie World, lodging a trademark application that reveals its likely branding for the nine-storey, 398-room landmark.

I was never pumping self serve stations so am a bit lost on your comment here. The only reason I have not been here is out of sight and out of mind. I need to make more effort and I will. And it not a matter of why I am anywhere it’s convenient sometimes to be where I need to be. They are not a bunch of kids, they are good people trying to make a difference to their existence amongst other things. I don’t have any ambitions to be a god or have an ego that would warrant this. Face book is easy. I have reached out to Richard to have something here on a regular basis. But I will

Crane on site installing more track this morning And here’s a potato photo of the track installed

Hey guys so loopy lighthouse has now got it’s hat, Silly Sub is being installed possibly today and word from the rides manager is that Big Dipper arrived in Australia yesterday, That’s all for now but I’ll be back about 3pm if anything happens

Sledgehammers main arm is being assembled and they are finally installing boomerangs train

Had Dan Males send these to me. Enjoy.

Little nipper has been testing and we also have the coasters logo

Few shots from today

Loop has been completed, credit to ozthrills on Instagram who is onsite taking footage today.

Photos from a good mate Noah that also made those drone videos of Leviathan

Lunchtime today, the fast right turn after the loop is up. a bit harder to see as well but some of the exit of the loop has begun going up.

Looks as though they've installed all the LSM track for the launch as well as the switch track. photo credit: https://www.instagram.com/p/CNeMiE_hGgs/

Yeah I do have a hell a lot of disposable income. I also have 3 kids, whom would like to experience something different. And my kids have been to Disney world and Disney land. So yeah would be good for them. I know they won't get the Disney input in our hotels as overseas, but imagine being a kid and waking up to a roller-coaster next to your window?! I know your a depressing dude, been here for years, but when something like this happens maybe to other people it will be a cool thing.

DW: Guys, we might actually have to put some proper money down for this new ride Mack: Hey, we have a half price coaster someone else pulled out of DW: Eveything is coming up Milhouse!

I love them too and how they also have a boomerang on the front seat is also pretty cool plus I have a couple more photos to share

Was In today for another look. that first turn after the drop is going to be intense can not wait, the layout looks fantastic

Bumping up a topic here, but what I’m about to tell you all is very important. If you have never used them, I highly recommend. When you next visit Dreamworld, use the toilets in tiger island. They are the best theme park toilets on the Gold Coast. They are so so clean and the best themed toilets I’ve been to. Nearly every detail has been considered to make them fit the theme of tiger island. This precinct for me is still the best themed and well done area in any theme park on the Gold Coast. Areas like Castaway Bay, Villains precinct, Dreamworks and Nickelodeon are all great, b

JDude95 the group in question are a great bunch of kids that have good fun and do the best they can, I don’t believe I get treated like god and not sure where you get this from. Nonetheless i don’t need any attention from anyone at this stage of my career. Connect and send me a DM on one of my social channels and I will meet with you so you can clearly see that my aspirations are not godly and I really don’t give a damn about what people think or how they treat me, be respectful and treat everyone fairly and be nice. You don’t have to have a million followers for me to comment on your platform

He sold theme parks to Brockway, Ogdenville, and North Haverbrook, and, by gum, it put them on the map!

DW saw a working train and had to put a stop to it

Boomerang's track has just been completed with a few bits of catwalk left to install, and not much else work has been done on the site other than the coaster and the station platform. You can see the track peeking above Coney Island, I think it will be an excellent view when we get to ride it

Another photo from oz thrills

Seeing coaster track so close to Buzzsaw makes me sad that DW didn't get the extended version like Abismo:

Loopy lighthouse is now on site and looks amazing, Sledgehammers controls building is also being built now, But that’s all for today

Well here are some of my photos of the progress taken this afternoon: Steel beams sit on the future Big Dipper loading station: Overview of Maloney’s Corner and the construction going on: Foundations for the Big Dipper supports are preparing to be concreted: Good view of the construction of the revamped entry to Maloney’s Corner (though I reckon the other side of Coney Island should be opened up to the public as well which would make the back of the park more connected and feel truly permanent): Close up views of the (Whi

I think you HAVE to be looking at a water ride for the park. It’s in desperate need now and it has to he as far away in public opinion from the two home made rides they had, so go super modern. The two other things the park needs is weenies and restoration of theming to OCEAN parade. So I really feel they need a nice big splash boat ride, obviously with the theming tweaked for the Ocean Parade theme but Intamin makes an off the shelf model that not only fits but ticks the boxes. Plus the vertical lift is a nice gimmick.

Well for me it's good to hear they aren't banking on steel taipan to completely turn the park around

Palm trees are gone!
