  1. It is, actually (though it should be noted, for some reason it includes NZ as part of AUS, so the Corkscrew at Rainbow's End shouldn't count). Here's all of RCDB's listings: And, for good measure, here's all the defunct ones: Using this, Australia technically has the most coasters with inversions currently than it's ever had, with the closest time period being between Lethal Weapon's opening and Thunderbolt's closure (excluding the gap between when Big Dipper II became Cyclone), when there were 5. But, taking into account the places these coasters are, that time period had: 1 at Movie World, QLD 1 at Wonderland Sydney, NSW 1/2 at Dreamworld, QLD 0/1 at Luna Park, NSW Compared to now, with: 2 at Dreamworld, QLD 1 at Movie World, QLD 1 at Adventure World, WA 1 at Luna Park, NSW 1 at Gumbuya World, VIC They're much more spread out, and (including the recent closure of Arkham, and relocation of Buzzsaw) that may be why it feels like there are less. *1 at Sea World, QLD

  2. an intamin hyper would only be compared to DC Rivals, and most GP wouldn't see the difference between the two. If you want to make a splash in Aus, you need a type that is way different to what's already here. That means Flyer is probably your best bet.

  3. Paramount never owned Australia's \ Wonderland Sydney. Paramount purchased 5 parks from TAFT Broadcasting \ Kings Entertainment Company (KECO) in 1992 including Canada's Wonderland and Kings Island. KECO didn't own the controlling stake in Australia's Wonderland, and Paramount (who was looking to establish their own brand of parks) had no interest in a minority stake in a park halfway around the world. The Paramount name was applied to all 5 parks purchased in 1993. KECO ended up selling their share to Australian based investor groups, making the park wholly Australian owned until the 1997 buyout by Sunway Malaysia.
