Yeah shade was always there, but I've always wished there was more along side the coaster itself

Hahaha yeah, I was only messing because I'm fully aware people can't reveal those details until an offical announcement. But as you say, now having seen the station layout, it doesn't seem like anything major, and there isn't much before the lift hill. But having said that, they have got the walkway leading up to the queue building, so they may do something similar to what they did for GL, and the queue line and track may be similar to what they did with Storm Coaster. I don't think that part is the best themed element of the ride, but the queue does set the scene of what's happening, and then once in the boat, the large screen shows a storm has hit. Hopefully MW do something pretty cool with the theming, but I think this ride will be all about the track, with its massive lift hill, turns, air time and maybe inversions. Not complaining in any way, as it's our first hyper coaster, and the scale of it is crazy. I can't wait to see what they do.

No, this was avalanche

Well we've got the drawings, so we may as well get the theme and colouring...

And here it is. GL will be closed for maintenance on Monday 29th May and will re-open Saturday 24th June 2017. Im going to assume that this is when this area of the new coaster will be constructed.

I don't think it would be fire exit, and that would be somewhere else. I think it would just be part of the general queuing

The thing is though, that you won't be able to see most of the coaster from the park. Obviously when you drive in you will be able to, but when I've checked it out from th GL queue you can't see much past where the lift hill and drop will be because of all the trees and how large the site is. So you will see even less as you walk through the queue area as that's even further down. You may get snippets of the ride depending on the air time hills and any inversions and the height of them, otherwise not much. Not saying they should remove the trees, just saying that you may dissapointed about how much of the ride you can see from the queue.

Good article, but I don't think "High rollers suck mid-air"

Awesome fine @STE4LTH, and now we finally have a layout. Was looking closely at the text, but unfortunately not description of theme or name. But basic idea of the layout, station and queue system is definitely good enough for me. And it seems like there will be 24 people on a train at a time. And the entrance into the queue area will be under the track and then inside the building, which also seems to have the main queue, single rider and fast track (there isn't any text, but I'm just basing it off the multiple lanes).

If they are freely accessible by anyone, then yes you can share the info

Technically it isn't batman themed, but villains themed. It is in the batman universe, but a part from batman on top of the building, and him on VR if you upgrade to it, the majority it is around the joker and Harley Quinn with mentions of killer Croc, and a couple of others who I can't remember.

So in summary, we've got no idea. But it won't Deadpool or anything else marvel related.

Was looking through the MW maintenance, and was thinking about GLs schedule and how it isn't until the end of the year. A few of us thought that it would be earlier due to the footings in GL footprint. But I still imagine they will close it when those piece are installed, but as the park don't know exactly how things will progress, they won't advertise it closing until a week or so before it does.

That's due to the tiger island construction and a crane being on the tracks

They certainly have @Brad2912, this was it about a month ago

Wow VRTP are giving people more and more time for these passes at the same price. Hopefully this means that with the marketing they will announce the coaster.

Agreed, and its a bit strange when you walk in, because you are essentially inside the right store, and then 5 metres to the left is the other store. I don't know why haven't put walls in for those stores because i feel like they are making things harder for themselves with multiple enterances/exits, and now the same for shops. If people try to steal, I bet they could get away with it because of all the different ways in and out of the stores.

MW have stuck this down the middle of Main Street for whatever reason. I assume its for people to take photos in front of, but just don't see the point of it really.

Piping all over the place on site, and some quite big holes have been dug around the footings. As well as some vegetation being cleared next to the bridge Find it funny how they decided to stick a chair upside down on top of a footing

You can now enter through this door, but it just takes you to the stores either side of the door View of the construction from inside the store

Wipeout maintenance is underway Fencing for BW and JL has been moved further out, and now has a sign to show that GL is still open The MW department store is already looking much better, and good to see they are doing the whole facade Back of Nickelodeon Store still getting some work done And the Dora show seating is nearly completed

Logs have been removed, just the pool, which is now a garden bed and the tree remain. Hopefully some seating will be added. Think it was a good move by DW rather than leaving a concrete patch.

They've now fenced off the corner of TI Train is currently closed due to the construction

Thought I'd mix things up and bit and let my phone decide the words I used and it decided that seating should be destiny.
