  1. Imagine if "Wiz Kids" got leaked before WOO was announced. The speculation would have been glorious!
  2. Hah, learnt a lot about zero cars today! Thank you Parkz. But yes, TLDR: Leviathan face on the train didn't have glowing eyes
  3. Not a literal zero car. Zero car is often synonymous with the themed front of a train (lead car?) Interesting. That was slightly after the last time I rode it.
  4. Got my first night ride on Leviathan tonight during Carnivale. So good! Really hauled through the layout and gave some amazing views. The lights on the zero car sadly weren't working, but the rest of the lighting package on the ride was great. Incredibly slow one train operations. One difference from the last time I rode is they let two trains worth of people at a time in the station. Get to see the preshow twice!
  5. Madagascar is blocked off from all sides. Have to go the long way if you want to ride Escape Soaring Swing! \ \ Bananas are in! Water spitting Madagascar figures are gone Madagascar Models are being removed (RIP Melman) Dreamworks has been removed from the map.
  6. Popped in the arvo to have a look. The lower section was marked as "Platform". The upper section was harder to make out, but it looked like "Water".
  7. 2 looks like a solid spot. Theming wise Aquaman would be a good bet if they went with DC. Could tie in with the sequel releasing this year. Wouldn't even need to repaint the track!
  8. Nah, it's definitely the world's first Shaun the Sheep Roller Coaster!
  9. The Donkeys and Onions have been removed from the Carousel All the theming from Puss in Boots is gone Bye Shrek!
  10. Dragons are often portrayed as Serpentine in Asia, so it could work. Or just take off the arms and legs and change it into a Sea Snake!
  11. Would be pretty bad to do during park hours!
  12. It was two empty cars, followed by a car with the solo staff member and a normal car with 4 guests. I didn't think of it at the time but yeah, they were likely linked in some way. The staff member was one of the ride ops, and I couldn't see any camera equipment. It looked like an off the cuff moment.
  13. The area for the Marvin ride has a pretty small footprint so I'm guessing it will be the same model
  14. Popped in today to give it a last ride before the closure. The lack of cars was noticeable for sure with an advertised 90 min wait in the afternoon. Didn't help that some cars were being sent around the circuit empty. They weren't wrapped up in tape as the borked cars usually are, so it seemed like a recent issue. One of the staff members got a solo ride on one car for some reason. Was quite surprising, especially after seeing two cars get sent empty just before hand! Most of the effects were down as usual, with the first screen being completely turned off. No Tv's on the lift, which I hear has been the case for awhile now. Ride is definitely rougher now, but I still enjoyed it. Here's a few pics:
  15. https://movieworld.com.au/attractions/marvin-the-martian-cosmic-boom Just announced! Marvin the Martian Cosmic Boom - a 10 metre Drop n Twist. https://sbfrides.com/products/dropn-twist-10-mt/
  16. It was at the QLD State Fair when it was at Coomera in Feb 2021
  17. Yeah, the coasters will go up pretty fast. I guess it all depends on the theming and landscaping.
  18. I've really enjoyed my last couple of rides on Gold Coaster. I did a front row night ride at the last Halloween event and it was really fun, not too rough and gave some great views of the area.
