  1. My brother has every amiibo released, has every PS version and Xbox version released, got the new PS4 VR setup the day it released ($550 retail)... Has never spent a cent on any of it... How do you know Ninja has spent a lot of money on this stuff... And if it is what he has an interest in how is it shit? My father has every model, figurine, episode, from every incarnation of Star Trek... Hell he converted the two car garage and still has trouble fitting it all in there... It is the envy of other collectors at any displays he attends... I have a room full of muppet toys and books which I do my builds in... People enjoy collecting different things... If they can afford to do so why is it an issue?

  3. I see what you are saying but even though Arkham Asylum features more Batman villains other than the Joker, the Joker is pretty central to the ride's theming/narrative - his writing is all over the walls for starters. Compared to Justice League, not one member of the Justice League stands out in the ride's theming/narrative - they all receive equal treatment - which is the difference to Arkham Asylum. I thought that scenario is different as they were 2 different types of rides (one of which was kind of already operating for 15 years) & especially because Christopher Nolan's criticially-acclaimed Dark Knight trilogy had only just begun 2 years prior to Batwing Spaceshot's opening. Well we'll find out

  5. I guess like most reasonable people you didn't count Fox Studios Backlot as a themepark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVwWnYslgok

  6. If by the media deciphering it, you mean the media comes onto parkz, reads the forum, or the article posted by the site and then makes up their own garble to make it not a blatant ripoff, and quoting a few Parkz members on the way, then yes, to an extent, the media will decipher the theme and type. They will not figure it out on their own without a media release.

  7. I don't think Mack Rides will say the slightest unless it is in conjunction with MW. Announcing it around the time of the IAAPA Attractions Expo would be a good for Mack Rides if it ends being a rollercoaster that is a global leader in it's field as then, with the global publicity, Mack Rides could gain the benefits of the Expo's visitation, which would be from all over the world. The IAAPA Attractions Expo also fits with the current time period for a potential announcement on the new rollercoaster. I predicted in my guess timetable that the track parts will arrive in early December so I do think there will be some sort of teaser at a minimum in mid-November like we are all expecting anyway. If they waited until after White Christmas, we might have found the track parts laying around in the car park and from the design & colour of the track parts, we're highly likely to have figured out the theme & rollercoaster features/type before MW even announced it. Given the hype built around this rollercoaster, I feel MW would definitely prefer announcing it themselves rather than letting the media find out through websites like Parkz this time more than any other previous time. Since Parkz began, nearly all new rollercoasters have been figured out from the arrival of track parts prior to any official announcement. Apart from the Mack Rides crates & the roller coaster DA, MW has kept details of this rollercoaster incredibly well secret and I'm sure they would have realised by now that track parts is an easy way for theme park enthusiasts (and to an extent, the media) to decipher the theme & rollercoaster features/type. A mid-November announcement would be before the track parts arrive ensuring that MW controls and makes the most of the publicity this new rollercoaster will generate.

  9. I wouldn't be surprised if it wrote off the car and did zero damage to the support. These things are built like a brick shithouse

  10. Regardless of the 'intention' of the VR question, I voted NO VR because in all honesty - any and every roller coaster in the world could probably be converted to VR if you wanted to so that vote would be a gimme. I instead voted based on my opinion that they should NEVER put VR on this coaster.
