Figured I’d stop for a couple of snaps on the way back north. Top section of the galley-way and the turn into the inversion looking likely to be next removed

Buzz off - Dreamworld commences dismantling of Buzzsaw roller coaster Buzzsaw operated for almost 10 years, finally closing to the public in August 2021. Now Dreamworld has begun dismantling the ride, and with the opening of Steel Taipan just weeks away it represents a dramatic change to the face of Dreamworld. Click here to continue reading

Is the WWF shop people are talking about named Rio Bravo Outfitters? Is there a secret way to get to the shop? I’m only asking because every time I have been to MW since WWF went under maintenance the street was blocked off and I can’t get anywhere near WWF.

Was good to see some crane action happening today

Im guessing gangway or catwalk.

You are correct, I was there a month ago and most of the items sold in WWF shop are only sold there as It’s mainly just western items.

Heli Tours back when?

I enjoyed the description of Steel Taipan as 'World Class'. This catchphrase has oft been bandied around far too much in Australia, and mostly scoffed at when used by corporate executives and marketing folks. I do think its the first time in a long time that it's been used to describe something at Dreamworld though, and it just came off 'right'. Its definitely the start of a new chapter. spot on. In the case of TOT and Buzz, they weren't on the new construction site, so multitasking the cranes was a cost efficient use of their time on site. Being on the same site isn't workable as there's a huge lead time between removing the old and constructing the new and the site prep and foundations wouldn't permit it to stay onsite.

How does waiting help? presumsbly you would need to get the old ride out of the way so you can get a piling rig in and put in the replacement foundations for the new one.

The last time I was in there - which admittedly was a few months ago, they had some very unique items. I don't recall seeing the same merch anywhere else - most other stores are loaded with looney tunes and DC characters, neither of which really fit Wild West. Top of my head, i'm remembering Akubra style hats, a wine bottle holder shaped like a cowboy boot, and other similar 'western' themed goods. It may have changed I suppose but it wasn't that long ago that I was in there.

Perhaps to go along with the common uninforms, and the Village Bean coffee shops, they could have "Village Gifts" for every shop now 🤪

Oh for sure AA should be gone by now.

You can see to the left they’ve also started building the station (to the right is the maintenance building And here’s a few other shots I got

No, WWF shop is only opened when ride is open

Rip Buzzsaw.
