  1. Well I'm sorry Alex, I had not seen the edit at the top of the first post stating that he had found the name.
  2. There is only one of them and it's not some scary carnie ride
  3. I can't vouch for the inside as I ain't going near anything with spiders in it
  4. Pirates revenge is just the flume that was at Luna Park Sydney. And as for Haunted Hotel it's the old Haunted Mansion ghost train but it has been fully re-themed.
  5. The show was called Cash Bonanza if I remember correctly.
  6. I have one somewhere, I'll have a dig around for it tomorrow.
  7. HOLY CRAP It looks like the Thunderbolt! And it wasn't just my imagination seeing that from the Gold Coast Highway going past Aust Fair!
  8. KFC FTW! But yeah... not including a drink is just bad... It makes Dreamworld all the more tempting...
  9. Each person is different though. But a slide should not be causing pain no matter who the rider is. I would assume this would be part of the reason why they are renovating it. Also... Jetstreams were prone to MEGA Wedgies!
  10. The middle one was the WORST culprit... Red marks and even minor cuts on your back from it is not a good thing... And I am not exaggerating that.
  11. I never really liked the Jet Streams because of how much they hurt your back... however the airtime was INSANE on them. If they have managed to fix the back scraping issue those slides will be freaking insane!
  12. By new slides do you mean the Refurbed Jet Streams or brand new slides?
  13. Sorry for the Double Post... but some info has been put up about the attraction. From April 10, Dreamworld will become the stage for an immersive combat experience where humans are the bait and their mission is to survive. Taking place in an intelligent arena that fights back, combatants earn points by engaging multi-layered targets with a Delta Strike phaser that triggers both shotgun and rifle-effect beams and comes with LCD screens and speakers to provide real-time game play information. New York based producer and director Lynton V Harris, the man behind attractions based on blockbuster movies, has been tasked with pushing laser combat beyond the arcade. “No one has themed laser to this extent and it was important that we get it right, so we went straight to the source,” said Lynton. “We flew to Los Angeles to meet with Amalgamated Dynamics Inc headed by the Creature Effects Creators of Alien vs. Predator, Tom Woodruff Jnr and Alec Gillis, to keep the attraction as consistent to the movie as possible.” AVPX is included in the Dreamworld entry price.

  14. Not to mention Sudden Impact manage to do these sort of things very quickly... I can only hope the theming is as elaborate as the Mummy or the Angosica side of Nightmares. If it is just like the freezer it would be rather disappointing.
  15. Yes... "the stairwell to the left of the Tower of Terror shop is reserved for Q4U riders and evacuations only. Please enter via the big sign that says Entrance"
  16. Literacy program's are not included within the Employment contract. However sound English skills are essential, unless you are applying for one of the roles that deal with the other languages of guests. Such as Japanese tour guides.
  17. I never said there was anything wrong with the retro trains. IMO they are more comfortable than the newer Arrow trains like Cyclones. The seats are so squishy
  18. Give us some Turbo Tunnels off those towers
  19. Well, the Vortex building could be used as part of the queue line. But if you look at a typical Laser Skirmish layout, they have the "briefing area" as well as an "Amoury" of types. So maybe this is what Mickey saw with the structure.
  20. Whoa... are they getting rid of the JetStreams?! They were only reasonably new rides, but very painful at the same time. I wonder if they will get rid of the Sidewinders too, as they could build something even bigger using the whole footprint of both slides. Thanks for the update anyway I might have to take a sticky beak one day.
  21. Give us some new Vekoma trains However... I like the old school look of the rides trains, something about those pointed Arrow trains just spells "Retro" to me.
  22. Vortex is currently in "Long Term Storage" It's future however is uncertain. It may end up being sold to a traveling showmen or possibly re-themed or relocated within the park. I don't really see many showmen wanting that particular unit as it is very old and does not run anywhere near the speed a Gravitron should be running.
  23. I don't really see how bright colors are inappropriate for Wiggles World. I can understand about Motocoaster however. The Wiggles are after all a children's group, and the area is targeted at children. The Wiggles were always bright and bubbly as such, so I feel that the colors are justified however it is all faded now.
  24. It was a typo... when I copied the info from the DW site it copied that full text. If you go onto the Dreamworld page it has a link to the page. But nothing much is there until the 27th of March. So maybe a Mod could edit the title for me?
  25. Opening April 10th. Keep an eye out here for more information and an exciting Recruitment Test coming March 27th! So now it seems that we have a name for the new Laser Skirmish attraction. And on the website it states that it is "Included in the Entry Price"
