  1. ^It was a simple arch shape that covered that whole platform where users get on. It appeared to be a metal roof, unlike the usually shade sail.
  2. I haven't been on one of these before, but what I like is how unlike Pandaemonium, where there is the hard and soft styles and there is alternations between them. On this ride both the adrenaline junkies and kids can go on it at the same time and go to the limits they want to. Even if you didn't want to spin upside down, I think the ride will be quite good with the large swinging arm. It doesn't look like the ride will be a spin-n-spew if you didn't spin your plane. The ride also seems to provide that missing link between Zombie Evilution and it fitting into Ocean Parade. The arm on Tail Spin seems to have a similar texture/feel to it as Zombie Evilution, while it has the beach hut look, that Wipeout has.
  3. ^we did. Photo source: Gold Coast Bullentin http://m.goldcoastbulletin.com.au/news/gold-coast/gold-coast-theme-parks-catering-to-little-kids-with-new-junior-attractions-at-movie-world-and-wetnwild/story-fnj94idh-1226940584292
  4. Movie World have posted the first image of Junior Driving School on FB. This is what they said:
  5. ^Thanks for that update. Claw looks great, good to see River Rapids has had a bit of a clean up. The blue ground throughout Ocean Parade is also looking really good. Pat on the back for Dreamworld.
  6. I didn't even take any notice of the extension to the tower: Can anyone tell if they have added a new set of stair, because I can see something to the left of the platform, but can't fully tell?
  7. MW have given the next clue to their next Maze. Thoughts?
  8. ^I actually think that as well. I think those photos make the slide look a little out of place. Maybe if we had a photo showing the entire site, it may not look as bad.
  9. (Photo source: Thrillz) Construction is coming along nicely for Triple Vortex: From these photos it looks like the splash down will be near the stairs that lead up to the slide or a slide piece just been put there for now? I still can't fully tell where the queue line will be positioned at this stage. So far I'm impressed with the slide though.
  10. ^No. Just stopped on the road along the front of the park and managed to see it.
  11. The first tunnel of Triple Vortex has been installed. From what I can tell this is the way the slide will go. I didn't see where the slide finishes, but I believe it shares the same splash down pool as RIP:
  12. I would say that would just be another improvent. We might see some more changes to the ride next year in its schedule maintenance. I think the next couple of year will be a good year for Dreamworld, with the new attractions opening and the changes being made so far, I'm looking forward to seeing what else they have planned to do. ALSO, Here are the latest construction photos of Tail Spin (photo source: Thrillz):
  13. Dreamworld said there would be 2 major refurbishment. Wipeout had a major refurbishment, Claw is just having a fresh coat of paint and the cameras on the GD are just an extra addition.
  14. I don't think MW class it as a thrill ride, but because of the way their website is set up, they have just put it under the thrills category. They have thrills, which is nearly all rides, kids fun, which is the Kids WB Area and family entertainment, which is the shows. If you click on the information of rides it does say its a moderate ride. If they just renamed that section to just RIDES, then it would be more appropriate. I haven't been to the park (except at Fright Night) since the ride opened and from what I have seen the ride looks pretty impressive. Themed really well and provides a great atmosphere. I can understand why the ride doesn't have long queues because of wheres it positioned. When you walk into the park it isn't something that you automatically see, unlike the rides around it. If they extended the theming out a bit, then it may be more visible, or if they fitted a sign saying 'Justice League: Alien Invasion' This Way. I doubt that MW are overly concerned about this though. Regarding it as a replacement of Batman the Ride, I think it is a good one. Yes the journey you are taken on in Batman: the ride, was good, I didn't find it an overly enjoyable ride. I only ever rode it a couple of times, because of this.
