  1. Is it just me, or is the new addition to ABC KIDS World clearly Bluey? They would make an incredibly popular character meet and greet.
  2. I went for being run as a theme park, but that just goes with a pet theory of mine that Ardent are trying are trying to have Dreamworld bought out by Merlin. i made a YouTube video on this late last year: (Moderators: feel free to remove link if it's against a policy or something 👍)
  3. I timed it on my cycle that I put up on YouTube, about 1 min 20 secs at the top, about 30 secs for each of going up and coming down. Not massively long.
  4. Rode Sky Flyer this morning. It was walk on at open, but people didn't really know it was there. Look, it was fun. It's not a thrill ride at all. it's not a Star Flyer. But for what it is, essentially a big Ekka ride, it smooth, comfortable and fun. Views are nice! You can see out to the mountains in the west. Good view of Surfers to the south. Don't make a trip for it, but if you are there it's worth a go, if you have low expectations!
  5. Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I need some Movie World help. I have a mate who is doing a YouTube video on Movie Park Germany. He asked me if our Movie World ever had a "The Neverending Story" presence in its early days. Anyone know? I can't remember any, but I don't fully remember the studio tour.
  6. Cool Randy23. Thanks for passing it along. I was interested in how the track walks played out, sounded like a cool idea. Definitely hope it continues in some form! It's cool to see a mix of pros and volunteers working together. Clearly a heap of effort went in to the night, I think they/you can be proud of what was put together.
  7. We went along to the Pineapple of the Damned last night and it wasn't bad! It has a lot of potential so I hope they keep doing it. To answer a few questions, it wasn't worth 38 bucks and there was 30 mins between train rides. The actual journey was 10-15mins, still pretty good though. I didn't get any photos, but I put a write up on my blog. http://themeparknut.blogspot.com.au/2013/11/pineapple-of-damned.html
  8. That is so awesome that track went up today! We visited yesterday, and that wasn't up. I've got a few out of date photos on my blog from yesterday. Check it out: http://themeparknut.blogspot.com.au/2013/06/sea-world-june-2013.html
  9. It all depends on the meaning of wacky. Weirdest coaster I've been is the Euro-Mir at Europa Park in Germany. Spinning coaster, around mirror tubes. Closest I've come to being sick after a coaster.
  10. Sea World have just posted on their Facebook (https://www.facebook...aworldgoldcoast) a new attraction coming soon! Seal Harbour!! Looks great from the promo image "Fantastic news there is another new attraction opening soon! Seal Harbour is an amazing multi-million dollar exhibit, home to some of our cheeky Seals and Sea Lions. You’ll be able to watch the Seal’s basking in the sun, learn all about them and even have the opportunity to hand feed them! " And: "Seal Harbour is planned to open before Christmas "
  11. For anyone interested that hasn't seen much of Dinosaur Island, I put together a few photos and my review of Dinosaur Island on my blog (http://themeparknut.blogspot.com.au/2012/06/sea-world-dinosaur-island.html). Feel free to check it out!
  12. Went down to Sea World yesterday. Definitely some work going on on Lighthouse Island. Both the path leading up to it, and the path going from it to Dockside Tavern were closed off and actively being worked on. I'm excited to see what it will be like, even if it only hangs around for 13 months or so. I hope it is finished before the 30th of June so we can get a look at it with our current passes. That's just me being selfish though. Anyway, I have a couple of path construction photos up in a trip report on my blog (http://themeparknut.blogspot.com.au/2012/05/sea-world-5th-may.html). I have a few more photos which I might put up later if I get the chance.
  13. Ahhh I love cryptic clues and insider knowledge. Looking forward to whatever the end of 2012 will bring, since the end of 2011 has been pretty good to us!!
  14. Awessome photo of the giant logo!! It is nice to see those extra little bits of detail being added before the official opening. I must admit, I'm a little disappoint at the revised measurement of the ride at 120 degrees. Unless there is some sort of new announcement trying to get yet more publicity, I think that it was a big PR mistake to claim to be the world's steepest when it isn't. Realistically though I'm not going to notice 2 degrees difference when I'm on it, so I don't really care.
