So you are asking that the best ride in the Southern Hemisphere has height restrictions that limit it to about 10% of the population.

Great story, I'd never heard that such a place existed, but think it's absolutely amazing that it does. Great find @Reanimated35

Penguin Encounter Exhibit is mentioned. That's the name of the exhibit, not the upcharge animal experience

Has there been a sighting of the Joker 'topper' as yet? I'd assume that will go up soon whilst the white crane is in place. Once that's done there is no more use for it so can't see it hanging around for long

Wanda is selling the majority of their theme park interests, I don't think that's an area they are looking to expand on anymore

Whilst it would be nice, I certainly don't expect any animatronics, just some statues akin to the Joker outside AA or some of the character models in JDS

I have an issue with it, you don't promote something at a time when guests can't experience it. Not everyone is savvy enough to jump on the maintenance page to check that the things they're promoting are actually open.

Definitely Brainiac (hasn't appeared in any DC movies or tv shows, nor is planned for the JL movie). He is a pretty well known villain though to those familiar with the Superman and JL comic series. Zooming in it definitely looks like Poison Ivy in the forest scene. Hoping we see a bit more intricate/3D statues of some characters, and not just GL level theming, even if it's only a couple of the major players (Bats, Supes, Joker, Catwoman) inside the queue house

If any get flogged they can head down to Bargain Mania and get replacements for $8..

Final lift hill support structure is now being secured in place.

I haven't ridden since the initial theming was removed, but is there much Scooby specific themeing left inside? 7 weeks is a decent chunk of time to theme a ride

Whilst I speak with no inside knowledge, I can comfortably state the likelihood for the SDSC receiving a complete re-theme is exponentially higher than what the chances of Rivals being a Marvel Coaster was

Naa that can't be case.. TPSN has been posting 2 year old photos captioned with "info coming soon" for the past 6 months....

Some great ideas Slick some plans and documents I read many years ago when the Town Centre master plan was before council referenced an entertainment/restaurant precinct opposite Westfield and between Foxwell Rd & a new entry gate to DW. I know at the time Ardent were interested in an AMF centre as part of that. this was however many years back, so I'm not sure if those plans remained part of the approved master plan for the area

In the raw video, it is fairly clear to see that the seating structure at the end of the lowest arm collects the lip of the floor (the point at which the floor lowers down) as it swings through. I'm not sure how that is possible unless there was some sort of drop or lowering of the entire arm during that swing, as I imagine that the lip/joining point could not have moved between swings. Even if the floor had somehow reset to its loading position, (Which doesn't look the case from the footage) I imagine the result would have been that the passengers legs would have collected the floor on the swing, as opposed to the physical arm itself

From memory it was obscured from view prior to the TRR incident, they just fenced the area off from view with a wooden fence.

Sounds interesting, wasn't something I experienced. Where abouts in the journey did this take place? I imagine it must have been where Corroboree currently is?

I believe it was still running monthly up until the closure last year. Hasn't returned since.

And if you don't want to pay $10 for the VR headset, you can sit in the boat for free while the ride attendant repeatedly says "Weeeeeeeeee" over the speakers

Brand new experiences... drive the Vintage Cars.... blindfolded! ride the Log Ride.... backwards! And then in 5 years, we'll switch them around and call them New Rides!

Just drove by and the first drop track now extends to just below the current top of the lift hill supports

Late September/Early October was the last I heard.

I'd say it's about 45-50m. It's definitely taller than the NI Loop

One piece to be dropped into place in the Morning to finish the hill. Cue the FB live post in the carpark with the worlds smallest microphone at precisely the right moment
