If I was in germany i would go on this coaster every day.... Seriously!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TGmBrYpZag&eurl=http://gizmodo.com/5013190/insane-water-slide-drops-you-straight-down-through-a-trap-door-flings-you-through-a-loop

I know this a little off topic, but is it me or is the guy in the six flags comercials kind of creepy. Hopefully it isnt just me....

http://www.screamscape.com/html/industry_news.htm#SixFlags Now Nothing has been approved yet, but if it does will you go to it when it re-opens?

I wonder how they will use fire as the visual effects. And Are they going to be using real fire?

That's kind of the problem: There's no new info right now. It's the lull before the storm if you will. So, in lieu of actual information, new topics to discuss, or anything particularly constructive how about we do the next best thing: WILD SPECULATION! There is not that much time before X2 is opened to the public. With that kind of time left, what do you think they will add to it that hasn't been announced? What do you guess are these 'visual, audio and sensory effects' we've heard promised? How do you think the place will be re-themed (if at all). Tim mentioned that they got some loading ideas from the folks in Japan... that they can't use all of them because they can't reconstruct the station from scratch, but that some things may be adapted for use. What do you think they will change in the station? Look, there's not a lot that is concrete to talk about just now, so lets see how creative we can be instead. (Thats what I am wondering to. On the website it says visual and audio effects. If the tunnel has been axed then what is going to be the visual effects? And what is going to be the audio effects

But I showed the link to Sharktumes via aim... and they didnt say anything was wrong

WHA??????? this was posted by me this morning and my post was deleated

But if there is no tunnel then what would satisfy "state-of-the-art visual, audio and sensory effects" on X2

It may be me but I still think that they will add the tunnel for one reason... ITS in the description on their website Height Restrictions min. 48" Ride Category Thrill Flash Pass No Trains NEW Completely redesigned, sleek trains Features NEW Innovative, state-of-the-art visual, audio and sensory effects. Top Speed 76 mph Elevation 20 stories Length 3,610 feet Capacity 28 www.sixflags.com/magicMountain/rides/X2.aspx

Are you still going to post the SFMM PTR... Other then that your PTRS are amazing!!!

Was the SFMM spokesperson ever quoted saying anything about tunnels for X2? Yes Quote: X launches into a new galaxy, becoming X2. X, the world's first 4th dimension thrill ride, is once again pushing all limits and taking extreme to the next level in 2008. This $10 million investment features completely redesigned, sleeker trains and introduces all-new, innovative state-of-the-art visual, audio and sensory effects. X will move from the 4th dimension to the 5th and become X2! With its 360° rotating seats and head-first, face down drops, X has been one of the most popular thrill rides on the planet. With the redesign, X2 will take you on a journey to a unique and unchartered dimension of extreme only Six Flags Magic Mountain can deliver. Unlike traditional coasters where trains only parallel the track, X2 sends riders screaming around its 3,600-foot maze of steel track aboard massive wing-shaped trains where the seats extend off of the track to the sides of the vehicle, allowing them to independently rotate you head over heels, forward and backward creating a one-of-a-kind "don't know what to expect next" sensation. X2 launches the extreme thrills of X into a new dimension with the addition of a unique new tunnel and light experience that changes with every ride. In order for the transformation to take place, X will close in late 2007, and X2 will launch in spring 2008. http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=39687&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

I am wondering... .Has the tunnel for X2 been constructed yet? Or is there not going to be one? O and btw cant wait for nagro5's PTR

But I would

Cant wait to see the rest of them What are the other park PTR's that you are going to upload? PS for those "pics" that didn't make the cut do you have a link to where they are hosted? I'd like to see them.

Quick question for those of you who went on the tour. If you went to flashbacks old spot did they say there is any plans to use it for a ride for MM or HH?

Cool!. Will the photo TR be posted in this thread?

Cant wait for the Update by Robb!!!

SO do you know how much longer till a PTR is posted? (I saw the one that is currently posted, I am talking about the one posted by Robb. Thanks

Cool cant wait!!. Is it going to be posted here or in a new thread? edit. Never mind saw the new thread.

Just a quick Question. Do you know how long it will be until a PTR of today will be posted?

OH. Did I read it right or did they say there will be a new coaster by 09. Wonder where they will build it. (psyclones old spot (good for a big coaster) flashback (unless that will be used for Hurricane Harbor) and free-fall's spot)

so how does the new tunnel look. i didn't see that in any of the pics

since I am 14 is their an age limit... Is it also ok if i bring some of my friends or do we need a parent to come (so would that mean it would be $40 if a parent has to come)

when you post more details is it going to include a schedule so i know what time to get there so i don't miss anything? Hopefully they can tell us what is going in where the two rides used to be! mod edit: Cleaned up your post. Please make sure to read the posting rules. Enjoy the site! -Joey

How much is this going to cost?
