    I would actually say this is a family ride like Road Runner Roller Coaster. Unlike Slyvester, the whole family can ride the new Martin ride. Also good for people who are too scared of Batwing Spaceshot.

    Looks similar to the drop tower at Luna Park Melbourne. It is better than Sylvester’s with capacity (8 instead of 6 a go) Thrills (higher than Sylvester’s) and better for taller people (adults can also ride it)

    I feel sorry for anyone going in June, with DCR, Scooby, RR and WWF all closed for maintenance. Luckily I am not going there then. Anyways, heres what I hope will happen with the upgrades: Cars changed to spin, either a free or paid option Screens changed to mimic the old Scooby Doo coaster Disco-like lights and Elevator screen removed Animatronics that are non-fire hazards added back "Next Generation" removed, name is just "Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster"

    As said in the Scooby thread, Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster will close on January 27 until sometime in 2024.

    Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster Next Generation: Next Generation? 😉

    So I assume the attractions will change during their maintenance period? That is great, and at least all the attractions will not close all at once like Kids World to Dreamworks.

    TBH I am expecting track to only appear at the park in late 2023-early 2024. The SFC’s clone at Gumbuya only had track appear in May/June and was ready by December. I expect it will be an empty land for most of 2023.

    Could it be due to the accident on Rebel Coaster in September? IIRC they are the same coaster with different names.

    The first one is similar to Spongebob's Boating School Blast. But yes, interesting to see what one it will be. The structure holding the planes looks quite similar to the Dronkey Glider one, so I assume it is just a retheme. I am guessing Gingy, Puss in Boots Sword Swing or both will be going to make room. The only problem with the rock n tug is that there will be the big red boat coaster as well as the big red boat rock and tug. I feel like everything in the ABC Kids area will be demolished except the Big Red car photo area.

    If a new movie comes out, its up to Village to make a new ride, not Warner Bros. Only two coasters themed to a movie that comes out at the same time have been made, Green Lantern in 2011 and Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster in 2002. In fact the latter was filmed next door and IIRC some of the props from the movie were used in the coaster.

    Jamberoo looks to me like the best themed water-park in Australia. Most of our waterparks are just concrete with slides towers on top (cough cough Raging Waters Sydney and White Water World) so nice to see a well-themed one.

    Could we rename this thread to include the Europe Coaster Club?

    I wonder if Nine/Seven News Melbourne will cover it as well tomorrow? Unlike in Perth, they will need to mention Adventure Park, Gumbuya World and Luna Park.

    It seems they are just doing that after spending the morning at WnW: So far, their schedule has been: January 10: Arrive in Singapore January 11: Universal Studios Singapore January 12: Travel from Singapore to Melbourne/Melbourne to Gold Coast January 13: Movie World January 14: Aussie World/Australia Zoo January 15: Wet N Wild/Movie World

    For me SurfRider is a coaster and has always been a coaster. Most people would recognise and see it as a rollercoaster as well. Just because it isn’t a full circuit doesn’t mean it isn’t a coaster.

    I dont think it will go to Movie World TBH. It would be good for the park to have another coaster and it would be easy relocating it as it is less than 1km away, but would most likely be used as filler and would most likely have low ridership compared to Superman Escape and Batman Spaceshot. I'm putting my bets on a Sea World relocation.

    The media are overreacting about Leviathan breaking down. A story is airing about it in Victoria on 9News.

    Unfortunately the on-ride themeing is almost non existent. There is no theming around the track. At least Scooby, Road Runner and Superman have themeing around the track, unlike DCR and GL. Also it seems that TPW will miss out on Scooby as it is closed for unscheduled maintenance. At least all the other rides are open.
  22. TBoy
    Doubt it. The only rides that could be affected when WoO is under construction would be Superman or Scooby. The others are not close and do not have anything to do with WoO.

    A B&M coaster at the GC wont open until 2025 earliest. Movie World and Dreamworld have plans for 2023-2024 and White Water/Wet N Wild will not be getting one for obvious reasons. Sea World doesn't have enough room.

    We do need more inverting coasters in Australia. Currently we have 28 coasters in Australia, but only 6 invert. In comparison, 22 don't invert and will increase to 27 > 6 when we get the new coasters confirmed in the next few years. These are the only ones that invert: Green Lantern (Movie World, 2 inversions) Steel Taipan (4 inversions) Gold Coaster (Dreamworld, 2 inversions) Abyss (Adventure World, 3 inversions) Project Zero (Gumbuya World, 2 inversions) Big Dipper III (Luna Park Sydney, 2 inversions)

    If Paramount Parks never sold Wonderland, then we could've had our own Cedar Fair Park. Unfortunately it was Paramount's least priority (not being named Paramount's Wonderland in 1994 like the other parks in the chain and remaining under same management) it was sold to new owners in 1997 who made silly excuses to close areas (the kids area was apparently closed for being "too big") and the park was closed in 2004.
