THIS.

For those, who didn't know (for "some days") yet… Very strongly "rumors" say, that the Shuttle Loop "Turbine" @ Walibi will lose totally its iconic flywheel-launch-mechanic-system, which will be replaced by a LSM-system. A brandnew train will keep the only lapbars by company Gerstlauer Amusement Rides GmbH. Source: coastersandmore.de I said it in another thread yet… I’m hoping, that comes a second train-generation/prototype with its regarding (and hopefully beautiful) front-car(-nose:-) by company Gerstlauer … If not, I am not so much exited about the train, because we know for month the look/design from the new “sooperdooperLooper”-trains. But okay, the colors could change definately… Thri"but nevertheless, it’s always extremely positive to keep a Schwarzkopf-Ride running and not scrapping"!!er

Thanks for your detailed report and the numerous nice pictures with such a Sn w- and Lightness, Chuck! Enjoyed it also, Thri!!er

Ok... thanks for the first rumors/infos, Maria... The main issue (for the truly Schwarzkopf-Fans) says: ORIGINAL/CLASSIC counts... haha! Maria, thanks once more:-) And keep all the ears open furthermore...! Thri"thumbs up"ller

Thanks for the photo, André.Vides! ^Aw… aww… awww – exactly: AWESOME! Seriously: It’s such a pleasure/benefaction to see one of my favourite Anton Schwarzkopf-multi-unit-train with its classy/beautiful bended “nose” and its two (accented) eyes by the front-car in this brand new color-design! I’m so happy about that new paintjob – it’s really sexy and successful! Definitely beautiful – yeah! The track-paintjob and theming besides too! I can only repeat by myself: I’m so glad and so happy to see these original train-design by the second generation (with its typically nose, I was above shortly describing yet) STILL for this Shuttle Loop! Thanks for this, Hopi Hari/Brazil, to keep the “old” but EVERGREEN original ANTON SCHWARZKOPF train-design (and of course the so - to my opinion - important and characteristic front-car with its nose too): It’s just TIMELESS and CLASSY . I could further and furthermore try to describe and adore/crazy about it, but I guess, it’s not really possible to describe exactly - this is just “MAGIC”. Well done, Hopi Hari… well done and biggest respect… very good taste also – smooth original! Good question(s) by the way, A.J. I hope someone knows something about it more accurate and may answer ... PS- HeitorAntunes, I overlooked that video above - till now… thanks, buddy!

Thanks for the new and sexy stuff, Mark! THANK YOU for that CULT over here:-) Thri"an ABBA-Fan too"ller

Thanks @ TPR-Team and for all – YES. I just want to accompany in this thread… Much videos, photos and interesting infos: So, tons of EFFORTS - absolutely! ^ I can only rudimentary imagine, how much sleep you all have to catch up… oh boy! Besides: Very interesting questions (all of them) from the TPR-User about the companies as well. You can be proud of them, Robb/Alissa & the TPR-Team! Was a super idea with the IAAPA 2012-user-questions, Robb – many THANKS for this also. I would call it: ^Freshness^! Again: Thanks and great job - Robb, Elissa, Adam, Jack, Jake and the rest of the ThemeParkReview-Team around IAAPA 2012. Just AWESOME.

Break Machine - "Street Dance"

Awesome themed "B&M-Flyer" - you named it, Robb... ^Robb, It could be argued - especially by you - that the "SKLOOOOOOOOSH!!!!-picture" includes the completely opposite from tons of "HOTNESS": (Tons of) FRESHNESS!! "Anyway", thanks a lot for your efforts/great pictures!!! : - ) Have all much fun...!

Thanks for the information, Elissa - sounds quite good for the beginning... The only thing I can tell still, is, that I got an email from the themepark Selva Mágica in which was written, that they are planning to open the "Bullet" ("Wiener Looping") next year, in the Easter Season...

1,000,000,000,000,000,000,057% agree! These are the classics and some of the pioneering designs created by a genious that ultimately led to what we have today, not preserving them would be criminal. ^I love you both even more *signed* : - ) If your information (by company Vekoma in the Netherlands?) is 100 percent for sure with the original train, I would love it! And I "think", I'm not the only one... Still one question to you, Erik - for the case you know it yet: Will this new original (Anton Schwarzkopf) train still be with the shoulder-crawl-accordion-restraints (*OTSRs*), or will it be with the so much loved *only lapbars*?

Thanks for your great photos as usual, Chad(ster) Exactly this Schwarzkopf-LoopCoaster ("Silver Bullet" in Frontier City), was the former and first portable LoopCoaster (in modern times) from the WORLD - named "Looping-Star" (in the beginning tour under the showmen-constellation between Fritz Kinzler & Oscar Bruch (Senior). The World-Premiere was at the carnival/fair Cranger Kirmes in Herne - better said - Wanne Eickel 1978 in Germany (Nordrhein-Westfalen/NRW).

Thanks GCG, for your impressive photos (postcards) from "Mindbender", which completely rocks!! Enjoy it very (as well)... Like I said: Retro Rocks !

Nice words you found about the Schwarzkopf-Coaster, R.D. : -) Agree with you of course: *High-5* Mrenata, I forgot something to say/write: You are really courageous, to pet/to fondle the "big cat" (Tiger, etc.)... I wouldn't, I can tell you that
