  1. Apparently the contract has gone to the same guy who did Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster Next Generation. Kidding.
  2. Dear god, the copy on that page is so badly written and below their usual standard. They also used the term 'precinct' instead of land, sadly following VRTP's lead
  3. I always wondered why they built such a seemingly expensive permanent shelter for that attraction. But I'm assuming the new bumper cars would be too big to fit under it?
  4. Oh I didn't realise the map path colours matched the actual path colours - figured it was done for the map only to delineate the themed areas
  5. Wonder why the blue path to signify the Ocean Parade doesn't continue through to Serpent Slayer? Maybe because it would make the kids area look too small on the map?
  6. Apologies, sometimes I forget there is life beyond Parkz (showing my age). Thanks for the photo
  7. Am I the only one who thinks this new area looks hideous? Like really ugly?
  8. I was going to say this!! I've always thought a Screamin' Swing would be perfect for this spot. A really fun popular ride, and it would swing out over the water on both sides. Not many places in the world where this style of ride is more perfectly suited for. Plus you could give the columns some nice Atlantean theming
  9. Both of those look great!! Very promising! Love that DW is going down the themed route - hopefully learning from the trend at other parks worldwide
  10. Looks like there will be a nice long master blaster judging but the updated concept art too - looking forward to that!
  11. Pretty sure they got rid of the ropes a while back, much to the delight of all the WB Kids' attendants
  12. Everything about the new logo and branding makes it look like it was done in Microsoft Paint. Which is a shame, because the old logo was awesome
  13. If DW are already reluctant to add another water ride, I can't see them adding a water ride that is intentionally meant to feel unstable
  14. Actually Dean is (or at least was) completely correct. Luna Park's maintenance team were always part of (and referred to as) Multiplex. They were pretty much always the same team based at the park though, so I wouldn't really call it outsourcing. But I don't know the details of the arrangement. Multiplex, the company, was a major shareholder of Luna Park. They probably still are
  15. Oh wow - that second photo reveals a lot especially! Cheers thanks for the info
  16. Sorry I wasn't suggesting it will only use the BRC plot, rather that general area. Still interesting how it's going to work though and whether any of those existing buildings will be kept or incorporated. We know our parks don't like to get rid of existing buildings! Also, from looking at old park maps (and I know this is not a guarantee of accuracy), it looks like the old country jamboree animatronic show was located closer to where the Billabong restaurant is now. So not sure how accurate their call is on that
  17. Was the show building specifically built for BRC or was it repurposed? Thoughts on whether it will be staying or going with Jungle Rush on its way? I still can't imagine how that coaster is going to fit into that plot
  18. Totally. WoO was to do with the need to replace Arkham with something and surveys continually finding that a lack of family attractions was the issue for MW. Atlantis was from way back when VRTP became acutely aware of the lack of ride inventory at SW
  19. Rare freak accident? I'd say it's actually quite the opposite of that, considering the Malificent dragon in the Disney parade also caught on fire a year or so ago and was covered all over the news
  20. Was once Australia's largest theme park - now look at it!! It looks like a regional park in Victoria, only with less theming
  21. 😮😮😮 Someone refund their plane tickets!!
  22. Coaster Studios will be missing out on both Scooby and Superman, right? That's a downright tragedy
