  1. When I say speed is coming to Perth I meant the Speed 2. So that won't be heading to Melbourne.
  2. There is an 6flags thread that was made.
  3. Perth Royal Show ride list has now come out and I am about to cry. We are losing 6 rides this year with NO new rides. Ride list: XXXL Wave swingers The Big ghost train Sky master Ferris Wheel Super Bowl Super Nova Star Flyer Splash down Speed Space Roller Sky Walker Sizzler Rage Ride Dodgems Orbitor Nitro Graviton Ghost Train Gee Whiz Flight Simulator 3D maze Cliff Hanger Chair Lift Big Slide 9D Cinema Missing from last year: (I gather these are all going to go to RMS this year) Seems PRS making a loss last year meant ride operators don't won't to come back. This is going to be a bad year for PRS considering we already are in a collapsed economy now the Mining booms over. Thunder Bolt Avenger ride Mega Drop Dark Ride Python Loop Ranger New rides None
  4. Then film a TV show inside where the main character has no idea he is in a TV show and call it the Truman Show. And in case I don't see you good afternoon, good evening and good night! I am now hoping for the worlds shortest launch track length.
  5. I think these Mack parts are for top golf. The worlds first Mack built Hyper, Top Golf with RMC assisting. * If you can't tell that above is a joke.
  6. Just saw this on Mack's website how cool would this be. Its a Mack Twist 'N' Splash ride? Obviously it won't be MI3 as it won't launch riders to new heights. But this seems like a great fit for AW. http://www.mack-rides.com/en/products/spin-rides/twist-n-splash/sr-ts-picture-gallery/index.html
  7. SF are making their new rides for next season announcements.
  8. I believed that Maximum impact never referred to size but to the quality of the ride. As Mark has said they are going to try and add at least one MI every 2 years. So it has nothing to do with thrills as that would mean AW will never get anything other than thrill rides. It has been hinted that MI3 will be a family ride to replace BR market. Abyss and Kraken brought maximum impact to AW by increasing capacity, immersion, and world class attractions. * But a lazy river is a massive ride.
  9. Whoops! Sorry I was reading this on my phone and clearly missed it.
  10. Would be funny if the park did this to mess with us. Or they are parts for SDSC. Hopfully this will be a none DC Comics themed ride.
  11. Remember it is an up charge. You have to pay for it so there needs to be somewhere for people to pay and queue.
  12. I compeltly forgot about that. But a sky flyer should be cheaper than a wind seeker because it's smaller and not as tall. This is going to be very hard to determin what it is.
  13. A lazy river I believe would definitely be a maximum impact ride. It would soak up a massive amount of people and themed right could be a very great attraction. AW needs its future attractions to have large capacity. But in some countries have some really amazing lazy rivers. IE underwater world Singapore and Water boom park Bali. I am sure AW would take it beyond a lazy river and choose a good layout and theme perhaps with some water effects. Considering they already have a massive pool I wonder if it would be very costly to change it into a wave pool. plus a lot of people are asking for a lazy river on their Facebook page.
  14. From what I found it cost Cedar Fair $5Million for the first 4 and 6.5 million for the last 2 installation. From what I found this total seems to be including installation, shipping and building cost. (I am not 100% but I think thats what the website says). So maybe they negotiated a better price and maybe they won't be as tall as other additions in other countries. Also this was on AW's Facebook page. I think this might either be about BR incorporated in the Kraken theming or Fright Nights as it looks like the Fright Nights logo. (People are also saying on Facebook the Lagoon should be changed into a Wave Pool and a lazy river added. Hmm maybe that will be MI4.)
  15. There is 2 traveling models. One traveling model which travels around WA.
  16. By winder seeker I was including Star Flyers in that category as they are very similar rides.
  17. Seems like it's going to be vey tall. Ie launch guests to new heights. I can't wait to see MI3 now. So many options for new rides it's going to be hard to guess. I must say I have a feeling maybe the wind seeker idea is coming along. (Tallest in Australia and it we defdenlty launch guests to new heights. Plus it will make up for BR removal.)
  18. Does anyone know the annual attendance figures for AW for last season?
  19. I realise that. But these are the times they gave me. I still get paid either way. But I was hopping for a day time slot due to that fact. But we will have to wait and see.
  20. Ok. I will look for the quote once I get home from work. A Gerstlauetr family coaster would be great. I just have one question is it 5million for the roller coaster itself or is that for shipping, construction and theming and so on. Found the quote: It does say unlikely.
  21. @Mark Shaw you originally said that MI3 was not going to be as big as Abyss and Kraken. This was when you said that due to the changing economy and bad weather patterns it would be a couple of years before we see a new single attraction at the price of 7 million. Has this changed since you said this? If this is true we know MI3 is 7.5 million and Kraken was 7million. So I believe this will be AW's second biggest investment. I just realised he said single attraction. (can't find the exact post) Maybe there are a few family flat rides….. I am sure you should be able to get 2 flats and some decent theming for 7 million. (Maybe Zamperla) this would more than make up for Bounty's Revenge. But whatever is in stall for us with MI3 and future MI's. I am sure Mark and crew have great attraction coming and they have always managed to impress us lately. I can't wait to see construction commence.
  22. Wanneroo show took PRS pricing to revel their cheap pricing this year. I can't complain. For anyone who is interested I am doing a magic show on the main stage from 9:30-10:15. Straight after the firework on the Friday night.
