Visited: Universal Singapore, Tokyo Disneyland, Tokyo DisneySea, Universal Hollywood, Knotts Have not visited: Fuji-Q Highland, Nagashima Spaland, Universal Japan, Shanghai Disneyland, Universal Beijing, Happy Valley Beijing, Leofoo Village Theme Park, Gyeongju World, Six Flags Magic Mountain

Motocoaster Future
Not sure if there is already a thread like this but do you think they will incorporate Motocoaster into Rivertown? If so, some possible ideas on what they could do and hopefully at minimal cost. I’ve put some ideas here, just a track recolour, Quad trains, one piece of theming (an Aztec/Mayan gate over a portion of ride) and recolour of the shades on the launch and queue. It’s a rough job done on my phone, but hopefully brings an idea. Do you think they will do anything with this ride to bring into the theme of Rivertown or Gold Rush, or just wait until it’s retirement?

"Significant" new attractions to be announced at Dreamworld
A B&M hyper would be perfection but I think something small but full of airtime would be perfect for Dreamworld. It doesn’t need to show off, just offer something that other parks nearby don’t have. A raptor (the prototype clone) or Intamin’s new-style ultra coasters would be unlike anything else in the area. I added a fun edit I made 2 years ago in a different thread that still kinda holds up.

What should dreamworld replace the defunct log ride with and whats next for dreamworld
My editing skills are non-existent and this is a pipe dream, but if Dreamworld invested money into a new plaza with another world-class coaster and flat ride (I chose Batman: The Ride clone and a Mondial Top Scan). And in the future when they remove Sidewinder, as mentioned previously, a shoot-the-chutes to make Ocean Parade feel like it has an ocean theme.I added a scaled down shoot-the-chutes but even if it is small, it'll add a family water ride which will complete the line up at that point.

New Attraction for Dreamworld Suggestions
Gazza, I see your point. Timber Mountain at Knotts has been around longer and was refurbed in 2013 as I don’t think log flumes have as short of a use by date. And I agree with your in-house point for sure as I forgot it was built by Dreamworld.

New Attraction for Dreamworld Suggestions
Well none, that’s my point. But to bring in a new log ride, it would have to be fully themed and completely new, otherwise there is no point to get a new log ride. It’s better to refurb the existing one and add better theming. (More cost-effective to refurb rather than demolish and rebuild imo)

New Attraction for Dreamworld Suggestions
I think that replacing HWSW with something along the lines of a RMC Raptor Clone or another compact, rare and decent-priced attraction would be perfect. The Raptor Clone would be no more than AUD$15m and would have higher capacity than the slow operations that HWSW holds, and would be unique to Australia/Southern Hemisphere. As for RHLR, log flumes are extremely expensive now due to high theming and immersion. I think maybe a refurb or something would be better (taller drop, new theming) rather than a completely new flume.

Luna Park Sydney - B&M Coaster!
It may sound like a load of shit and probably is but it isn't that far fetched. LPS may be the shittest theme park ever but it would have copious amounts of money lying around fro not building anything new and having all portable rides don't you think.

Luna Park Sydney - B&M Coaster!
It says on Luna Park Sydney's wikipedia page that in 2015 it will be getting a B&M Sit Down called "The Big Dipper".

Bring A Universal Studios To Australia!
I completely agree. Australia needs a new park especially a large one like USS
