    The closest I would say we have of a Universal park is Movie World. It may not be as big as them but we do have more coasters than Hollywood, Japan, Beijing and on-par with Singapore. When we get the SFC, Boomerang and Half Pipe we will have 8. IMO I can compare Movie World to Universal more than Disney.

    Thought I would start this up for fun. Each Saturday I list two rides from two different parks, and people vote what is best. Voting will close on Thursdays, and on Fridays the results are revealed. One ride is saved and one is turned into paperclips. For example, it could be Superman Escape v Steel Taipan one week. If ST wins it would be added to the list while Superman would be removed. Clones will be counted as one choice, not two. Also you do not need to have ridden the coaster to vote, but it would be good if you have. Let's start off with... TNT (Gumbuya World) vs. Kenny's Forest Flier (Dreamworld) In my opinion I would pick TNT. It is actually really fun and intense for a family coaster and I am glad Movie World is getting a clone. Also it goes fast the whole length of the ride while KFF seems to go slow in the second half. Remember to put results in by Thursday.

    It will be sad if it closes permanently. It is the 2nd oldest operating coaster in Australia (oldest is Scenic Railway at LPM) and will bring the coaster count to 3.

    In my opinion, I feel like the rebranded Surfrider and Marvin will open on the same day. IMO I feel like they will be ready at the same time so if they are, why not open them on the same day?

    Good to see Pandanonium get a repaint. Looks good with the sea theme IMO.

    Based on that, it seems Play School Wheel will be relocated from ABC Kids World but the others wont. My guess is Soaring Swing, Candy Flier, BIP Fun Maze, TeaCups and Big Red Boat will be going.

    I am guessing it will be themed to DC. If not it will stick out like a sore thumb compared to DCR, Superman, Batwing, GL and JL. Maybe Aquaman as a theme as a new film as a new film is coming out this year, is well known and doesn't have an attraction yet. Maybe use the things they have from Aquaman the Exhibition if they still have them as theming? Overall an exciting two years for the park with the new Marvin ride (first ride in Kids WB in 8yrs) Scooby refurb, WoO and now this. Also exciting for Dreamworld with their expansions too. Planning to go in 2025 (I live in Victoria)

    It would be great to see the SFC 450 trains on KFF. The only thing would be instead of vest bars it would be a lap bar.

    It is even sadder that we only have 6 inverting coasters in the whole country and we will not be getting more anytime soon.

    I agree. Surfrider's queue path is tiny anyway. Doesn't have to be massive, the queue wasn't that big anyway.
  11. TBoy
    Aquaman? He doesn't have a coaster at MW currently.
  12. TBoy
    My guess is it will be either 1, 4 or 7. I'm hoping it goes to 7, and if it does my guess is it will not be getting a retheme as Spongebob, Storm and Jet Rescue all are blue so it will fit in.

    It seems that “Belinda’s Tree House” will now be changed to be “Belinda’s Ball Pit” according to the website. The temporary name currently is “Dreamworld Ball Pit”. @themagician, will Puss and Boots + Gingy be staying or removed? There would be no room for the new BRB coaster if everything is staying, so I am assuming one, if not both will be removed.

    Yes I know many people who rode it multiple times. I rode 3 times and my sister 5. TNT had more queues however but Mining Race Coaster is basically dead.

    Project Zero is the only coaster in Aus to reach 5Gs and Rebel is also tied with SX360 at Aussie World as the only spin-and-spews to reach 5Gs.
  16. TBoy
    Yes when the gondola spins freely it is very intense and everyone coming down to ride the new coasters should try it out IMO. Gumbuya actually have broke some records in terms of G-Force with Project Zero being the only coaster with 5Gs and Rebel also being the only spin-n-spew gyro swing with 5Gs. I can see why it is 14+ to ride. And the Project Zero actually gets queues unlike Buzzsaw. Not as big as TNT/waterslides but bigger than the flats. Mining Race Coaster gets hardly any queues since TNT/PZ opened. Good ride for the park with it also being the second tallest and fastest coaster in Australia, and only one of two coasters to reach 150ft (the other being DCR)

    You should as most states are back at school. Unfortunately you wont be able to ride Scooby but it will be good to go before Doomsday/Superman/Batwing closes.
  18. TBoy
    Yes it is really great. I went on the Rebel when I went a week ago and I can tell you it is one of the most intense flat rides in Australia.
  19. TBoy
    I would actually say this is a family ride like Road Runner Roller Coaster. Unlike Slyvester, the whole family can ride the new Martin ride. Also good for people who are too scared of Batwing Spaceshot.

    Looks similar to the drop tower at Luna Park Melbourne. It is better than Sylvester’s with capacity (8 instead of 6 a go) Thrills (higher than Sylvester’s) and better for taller people (adults can also ride it)

    I feel sorry for anyone going in June, with DCR, Scooby, RR and WWF all closed for maintenance. Luckily I am not going there then. Anyways, heres what I hope will happen with the upgrades: Cars changed to spin, either a free or paid option Screens changed to mimic the old Scooby Doo coaster Disco-like lights and Elevator screen removed Animatronics that are non-fire hazards added back "Next Generation" removed, name is just "Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster"

    2 backwards facing cars on the worlds most iconic wild mouse for $25
  24. TBoy
    As said in the Scooby thread, Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster will close on January 27 until sometime in 2024.

    Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster Next Generation: Next Generation? 😉
