  1. "Later in August this year, a new ride will make its way to the theme park. The Bounty Revenge is a 360° swinging ship that will take visitors on the ride of a lifetime. Towards the end of the year, the existing Zambezi River, better known to many as The Lazy River, will undergo total upgrading and re-theming. To give visitors more to look forward when visiting Sunway Lagoon Theme Park, the Sunway Petting Zoo will eventually move into the theme park, creating a mini night safari." http://www.sunway.com.my/sunwaylagoon/pres...o=1&staffs_ids=

  2. Hey AlexB, I think I have a colour version of that B&W photo you got. I'm not sure why they had so many B&W prints, the colour one looks good with the sun set light.
    Hi, I'd take a shot guess and say the B&W prints would be handouts to newspaper's and media before digital files were more common, artwork would be in the form of a bromide, B&W photographs or slides which would be drum scanned. Cheers Sean
  3. http://www.al.com/news/birminghamnews/inde...42024170320.xml "Visionland will get a $5 million triple-loop steel roller coaster at its Magic Adventure amusement park next year as the park's operators hope to build on the record-setting attendance of 2004. Visionland owners Southland Entertainment Group purchased the 1,000-foot long coaster from a park in Australia and will be installing it in the coming weeks on the hillside between the Rampage wooden roller coaster and the Space Shot tower drop ride.

  4. Post some more up please. Why didn't you reply to when i was after some Wonderland Sydney photo's? I needed those. Would it be alright if i could get a Cd sent too? If so, PM me.
    Hey Paul, Because I did not have the neg's then, they were "misplaced" by the lab!.. Give me a few more days to scan some more..:) PM me with your details Paul, Cheers Sean
  5. Zordmaker, Yes I agree with you 110% but, Yes that maybe true, your brothers backyard might be a hell of a lot better :o ...but that's not the point, Asian tourists can't get in the gates quick enough. Lets face it, Featherdale would not be around today if the tourists didn't bother to come..or if the asians had the views of "bren79"...but they don't...agree? Its like the developers in the west that make crappy spec houses and sell them for way overpriced bucket loads of cash, its supply and demand right?.. The asian tourists have no problems it seems to go to all the way out west to see a few old dusty looking kangaroos and some small farm animals..etc

  6. Sure it worked for a few years, but seriously who wanted to drive to the middle of no where, especially a dry bush type environment in Western Sydney for the sake of a theme park that was lacking in any major amusements (well in the last few years)
    You make it sound like the Arizona Desert!..gees its like less than an hour by train from the City and 40mins by car and ive read scientists have actually found some humans beings who are actually living in the area :) Trying tell that to the thousands of people who live in Western Sydney! I know its a bit old but read below "According to the 2001 Census, the population of Western Sydney is among the youngest of any region, where nearly 38% of the population (653,630) is under 25 years of age and 9.2% (159,474) of the population are ages 65 and over.

  7. Do you seriously think that management in Australia had anything to do with Wonderland's closure?  All that would have happened is that Stephen Galibraith would have received a phone call or had a meeting in Malaysia with the board, and been told it was closing.  He then would have been offered a new position in Malaysia, which he took, at told this is what to tell the staff and public about the closure.
    Bussie, What I was trying to say is how come the management did not get the ball rolling correctly with advertising, decent promotional stuff etc...before, when they had the chance, maybe then if Wonderland improved the figures via the gate it would of not come to this. You have to admit the later wonderland branding and advertising was pure rubbish, like they ran some "win a free wonderpass" competition at a local tafe for advertising students. .
  8. do you mean menai? ...I believe its all national park and/or army land, or expensive housing blocks. Its a pain in the butt area for public transport as well. I have a friend that lives in menai, it's also expensive to build because of all the hardcore rock..it just cant be cleared away with a bobcat and shovels, you need some serious equipment.

  9. Hi Guys, Was running across the Harbour Bridge this afternoon, and noticed a large bright orange ship going out to sea, so I stood and watched the massive cargo ship go under the bridge and I couldn't believe it..on the deck on the cargo ship what looked like to be the demon all layed out across the front of the ship. It was such an awesome and sad sight!..I wish I had a camera with me!! BON VOYAGE DEMON! :)
