😍😍😍 Yes yes yes. It is going to bring a great vibe to the park TBH, being the first thing you see when you enter. It is the equivalent of SE at Movie World being behind the entrance or the castle at Disneyland/Disneyworld.

Before the refurb they had 23 attractions, which will soon decrease to 20 (counting shows (permanent) and not counting animals + WWW) Attractions going: Dronkeys Gingy's Glider Puss in Boots Sword Swing BIP Maze Dorothy's Tea Cup Ride Big Red Boat Attractions coming: Jungle Rush Big Red Planes Big Red Coaster Compare that to Movie World which will have 23 attractions by 2024 (WoO counted as 3 coasters/SurfRider also counted) to DW's 20. For the first time MW will have more than DW.
-
Ah that explains it. Are they and Wedgie going under a refurb? Must be if they are closed from April 2022 - September 2023 (counting closed period from April-September)
-
According to the website, Fully 6 2/3 are out of maintenance at White Water World. The Wedgie is still listed.
-
Ah thats why it is closed. When I asked people at the park they said that Tree Swing was down due to them needing a part and it would open in around mid-Feb. Must be rebuilding it from scratch or a retheme. I agree. The fact that it is being made in Italy (where Zamperla is) and Dreamworld have a good relationship with them as well as the new rides being made by Zamperla makes me think of that. Yes P+B are in Italy but they have no relationship with Dreamworld which is why I think a Zamperla wave swinger is most likely.

Ok, sorry for adding WoO Boomerang to the list. I will still count whoever wins MDMC vs. Jet Rescue however.

And Scooby wins the race against the Wild Mouse and the Dingo with 43-11-2. Due to the Wild Mouse being heritage, it will be let abandoned while the Dingo Racer is turned into scrap. TNT Big Dipper III Superman Escape Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster For the next poll, I will try something different. This time there will be two polls in the same thread. Let me know what you think of it, and put your votes in by Saturday. Vote here:

This time we will be doing two polls. Also due to the WoO Boomerang not being open, you can compare it to POVs of Tweestyrd as well as the theming on the concept art. Vote by Saturday.

In my opinion you can't compare MW to Disney. In my personal opinion, I see it as a combination of Universal/Six Flags. The general vibe seems closer to Universal than Disney, and the attractions seem similar to Six Flags, as well as the WB characters. Some examples are that main street/the park layout look similar to Universal (Hollywood in particular) while DCR and JL look like something out of Six Flags (Justice League: Battle from Metropolis at multiple SF parks was based of JL: Alien Invasion at MW IIRC)

Seems like you had an alright time. Yes at Gumbuya World Project Zero always closes at 10-11am and 2-3pm due to maintenance, maybe something to do with Buzzsaw's unreliability? Unfortunately for you TNT broke down but at least you got a go. It is most intense at the back IMO, when it comes to MW people will find it is very thrilling for a family coaster. And also as you said, the waterslides are more popular than the rides. IMO I feel like TNT is the most popular land ride, followed by Project Zero, Tree Swing and Mining Race Coaster. The queues are very short on Rebel and Rush Hour, on the latter I had to wait 10 minutes for others to get on as I was the only one in line. Buzzsaw is in a great home now where it actually gets queues now TBH.

I have figured out the clues and I think I know who the manufacturer of the wave swinger is. It is Zamperla! I am guessing it because: Greg Yong said the swinger is being manufactured in Italy, where Zamperla is Big Red Boat and Big Red Plane are being manufactured by Zamperla Zamperla make wave swingers that look like the one in the concept art It seems to me that Movie World, Sea World and Dreamworld love Zamperla for their kids rides. Basically nearly all the kids rides except carousels/coasters are done by them.

It was a tough one (35-35 at some point) but Superman Escape escaped the earthquake unlike the Steel Taipan (46-38), so Superman is added to the list while Steel Taipan is made into scrap metal. TNT Big Dipper III Superman Escape The next poll will be a 3-voter with one option due to there being 3 wild mouses. The battle will be Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster vs. Wild Mouse vs. Dingo Racer. Place your votes in by Wednesday. Vote here:

Time to pick the fourth coaster in the list. This time there will be 3 options due to their being over 2 wild mouse coasters in Australia. Please note: this does not count the Crazy Spinning Coaster in carnivals, only permanent versions. Remember to put votes in by Wednesday.

In my opinion I love the idea of a Wizard of Oz themed land. It's a timeless classic watched by many generations and people still love it today. And it is also a break from DC themed lands (thank god). The theming also looks 100 times better than Arkham Asylum and will be one of the best themed lands of the park with Wild West Falls also close.

From Jagg's Journey's latest video, there are markings leading up to RR's entrance which show a bigger queue: I think it is good IMO. I remember Road Runner's queue extending down past the trees when I was there in August so will help to make a longer official queue area.

What a strange park! Doesn't seem like a traditional one but a different one with a strange, different type of rides.
