What are our thoughts before the train is added? New seats / train? Or just the old one? I’m staying optimistic, but judging from what we have seen, I think we will unfortunately get the old flame surfboard.

I'm 90% expecting it to be the old one, but you never know... you can do it, VRTP!

I like the Art Deco style. I'm guessing it won't stay Looney Tunes forever and will sell whatever's big at the time - Wizard of Oz for example.

They did have some when it opened and according to their online store, some of it is still available:

Maybes it’s still sold in park but only in one store and it’s limited stock

That's true, those are technically DC Rivals, but I was meaning more in this style:

- Merchandise: Dreamworld has substantially more park-oriented designs & variety in items than MW has. However, MW also has the benefit of having tons of franchise merch, so I guess it depends there on which you’d prefer. For me, I’d prefer something about the park.

I still find it bonkers that DC Rivals has no merchandise. Imagine how many shirts they'd sell to thoosies!

Guessing it's the old Photo Store location!

As for the Oz store I could see them retheming one of the other Main Street stores - maybe Batman? The unused bank might also work well, especially being close to the old Lethal Weapon entrance if they decide to use that for WOO

Clip of the ride testing! Looks like it's going to run three laps. Watch till the end

The ride had a preview today for staff members! It looks very impressive off ride with the fountains. Also has music! Probably going to be open by the weekend.

Shockwave is still in pieces, but I saw Gold Coaster testing yesterday

November 1, 2023

They remembered to do the Early Access event tickets this time, but it was only for a day

With all the retheming they've done lately they're probably pretty comfortable with it now, so I could see it happening eventually to MC too if they intend to keep it.

Here's a pic of the second train from October 2022. It's usually there whenever I check the ride, you can easily spot it by the station

I think it's temporary for the Halloween event which is a shame.

HKD was lacking a "kiddie coaster", so the new Frozen one was done that way deliberately. I wouldn't expect Jungle Rush to be like it length wise.

There's now a dedicated page for Rivertown on Dreamworld's site! https://www.dreamworld.com.au/rivertown/

VQ is an interesting one, because if you offer it free to everyone, does anyone really benifit?

Often times VQ was shorter than the standby. On paper it seems like a loss, but really adding to the regular line for a feature clearly not many people were using is lose lose. As much as it feels like a decline, fuck it off and keep pay to cut expensive af seems like a winner to me. I think a generic Village hate has clouded people's judgement here.

Disagree. It was easy to benefit from Fastpass at Disney when it was "free". and how is it a lose-lose if one party gets to bypass a significantly longer queue than the other if they know how to use the app?
