  1. 100% agree with this one. Guaranteed to be the most popular ride on the GC now! (In terms of catering for the masses)… don’t hunt me down all you DC Rivals diehards There are the 1 or 2 white ones as well Look… if I could fault the ride experience in any way, it would be the motors are too loud. not because I’m being sensitive… I feel like there’s supposed to be sound effects are you travel around, past those 3 heads, etc. and over the motor noise you can’t hear anything Unless I’m totally wrong about the SFX… in which case, no faults 😂

  2. I was honestly expecting MC to stick out like dogs balls especially walking back towards Main Street from Jungle Rush. The little they’ve done to the store has ensured it fits in as nice as possible with spending as minimal as possible. You hardly notice there’s a motorbike racing ride right next to all this jungle theming. Definitely will tie it over for 24 or so months until they can fund a replacement or returns

  3. Just got home after spending most of today down at Rivertown. My thoughts Rivertown The archway as you enter is awesome, so much texture and life to it. The front of the gift shop leaves a lot to be desired, I think it was a last minute decision and I hope we see some texture added to the front so it isn't just a brown box Inside the land itself is amazing everywhere you look, once the greenery grows in even more its going to be breathtaking. Themed street lights, themed seating, custom fences, nothing in the land feels generic or off the shelf. Some more shade along the main walkway and above the seats would be great, I personally felt there was a good amount of seats except around Murrisippi Motors its just most of them were in the sun and thus, unusable after baking for a few hours Drinking fountains? like I know they want to make money on drinks but come on guys, you have to at least give us one down there at least So glad they kept that giant Fig Tree in the middle of the land, without that I don't think the jungle illusion would work at all Access through to Tiger Island is the same as ABC kids used to be, works great for the flow of the park So many great locations to take off-ride shots of both attractions, will be great for families and for people filming for YouTube, especially once the Dreamworld Express is back open and runs behind Murrisippi Motors Blows WoZ out of water, the clear winner in regards to every possible aspect Jungle Rush Theming in the queue and station is fantastic, easily the best in Australia IMO (except for the bunnings pedestal fan in the gem room which I have to assume is temporary, but I guess that's better than melting to death in a fenced in cattle pen) Clearly there is still a bit more theming to go inside the temple, the hill as the first enter seems to have a bunch of threads sticking down from the roof in preparation for more to be attached and you can see into the back of some of the panels as you climb onto the turntable initially Single rider was closed, however the queue was so short most of the day and I wasn't alone so didn't affect me, but I did see some seats going empty on some cycles Managed to easily get multiple rides in and experience front and back row rides in both directions. Backwards, row 10 (front seat of the train if you were going forwards) was my favourite, you get whipped around some of those corners. Almost like a kids DC Rivals back seat Longest queue we had was about 25mins and stretched back out past the gem room, had rides where we basically walked straight into the station The operations team were exceptional, quick dispatches with the only real hold up being guests leaving their items. They were actually paying attention too, if they had only half filled a train and more people came up through the queue they actually noticed and let them through. They were also asking anyone in the forwards line if they would like to jump over into the backwards to fill empty seats which I almost always saw someone take up the offer The "leave backwards" line seems far less popular, however I think its the better ride experience so that was a win for us, got multiple walk ons today for leaving backwards but never for leaving forwards The item storage is pretty poor though, having a tiny cabinet with a sliding door that wasn't being used to split it up between trains, leaving it just sitting in the middle blocking half the slots while people shoved it back and forth. The gap between the storage and the trains is very tight, resulting in people having to wait for those getting off to collect their items and then having to wait their turn to fit their items in. They did open the gates before people had finished collecting their items which was appreciated, and would be amazing with a better layout item storage system (and guests with their brains switched on). No test seat to be found, unless I am just blind Easily the best new coaster to open in Aus this year Murrisippi Motors & Jane's I will talk about in their respective threads.

  4. Dreamworld have definitely put much more love and care into the whole land than MW with Wizard of Oz - every part just looks spectacular. The details placed within each part look fantastic, even a non E-ticket like this looks amazing, and will only get better thanks to weathering and the growing greenery. Good job to Greg Yong and his team for making Rivertown so great, I can't wait to see what is next. Hopefully some enhancements are made eventually, such as retheming Motocoaster into the land and redoing the store's facade to match.

  5. Stop making shit up. I said WWW needs its own management. I've said many time, Greg is doing a great job with DW. We could go back and fourth all day, but I have a plane to catch. Wishing everybody and their families a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Hope the holidays bring everybody plenty of reasons to smile.
