What a great post, very helpful...

No one?

Further to the original post, I'm surprised how hard pics of the Moore Park Easter Show are to find. Google image search doesn't find anything.

So, anyone with photos from the Moore Park era? Also on that, was there any books published about the show?

Anyone have any links? Would love to see a collection of photos from the old show, especially from late 80s - 90s.

anyone find some pictures of the set up?

wow that is very cool, any more news on this, google doesn't being anything up.

thanks, i remember they even sold showbags - a Hulk Hogan WWF one comes to mind. They also had one of those 'loopers' that every carnival seemed to have at that time.

Can anyone remember when they used to have rides down at Darling Harbour where Cockle Bay wharf is now? Did it have a park name or was it just a collection of random carnival rides?

OZshowkid said he saw it, Maybe he did just mean in a warehouse - i thought he meant he saw it in operation at a fare.

wow! 2 years on and it seems we may be going to see this ride soon... Where was it seen in Melbourne? Turbo X hey... Anyone been able to find pics of the newly 'pimped' ride?

hmmmm poor turbo when will it grace the Sydney show again? stops holding breath.

still waiting for its return, any news?

it used to be a staple. Remember it very well at moore park.

the twin flip, i noticed it was smoking at the Sydney Show, figured that was weird...

yeah, did anyone get it done?

any updates?

hey all, i happened to go here on it's opening while visiting the place. The ferris wheel is said to be australias first single arm ferris wheel, not sure what that means... The waterslides were FANTASTIC!

can't wait for this ride to return. memories galore. could this be a good ride for LPS?

Is this the same one that was at FOX STUDIOS in 2004? Cuase that one looked in good shape already... Hope it comes to Sydney Show again. Or even better, Luna Park shortly.

Anyone know much about the current state of this ride in Australia, and where it is now? Used to always be at the Royal Sydney Easter Show, yet havent seen it there for years. Heard it was at FOX in 2004. That would have been great. Any info would be terrific. Thanks!

WOW great thread. I have many memories from pp. And yes with my latest trip to port i was very surprised that fun and games (the arcade - most games 20cents) was still there! i remember a different song p p p pepermint park its the place that we love, the ducks in the late, the koalas above, p p p peppermint park, its so full of fun, its good and its safe and its ports number one. OR as the locals say.... p p p perpermint park its the place that we hate, the ducks are all dead, the koalas are fake - p p p peppermint park, its so full of crap, its bad and unsafe and its ports number 10 I also remember that you could easily block the slides and a VERY hard mini golf hole which was like a pyramid.

so, anything new?

wow thats great!

hey dude you should put your model on display for a while?
