  1. Here’s an update on Supergirl. It looks like it should be ready by Memorial Day.
  2. Star Flyers tend to go up pretty quickly. This will be ready within 2 weeks to a month.
  3. This is the original 3 Six Flags parks we’re talking about. They are 100% not going to sell them. Plus Six Flags St Louis is the only park in the chain that they completely own. I swear if this pops up on screamscape I’ll eat my hat
  4. Amazing idea! I’d love to see people post results of the app here! I’m very curious how it looks on a shuttle coaster like Mr. Freeze! Edit: actually I would like to see someone post what the chart looks like for a ride like Xcalibur at SFStL
  5. That’s actually pretty nice! I also like how you reused alpine rush’s station as a shop or restaurant. Very cool!
  6. It’s still in the same spot. On the StL version, once you’re about to launch into the tunnel, simply look up and the animatronic is there.
  7. I've always thought that because of the trouble that they have had in the past with supplying enough power to the rides LIMS that they just down right disable the figure from moving. edit** Six Flags Over Texas Mr Freeze animatronic still works, doesn't look like much, I am guessing that our Mr Freeze broke and they figured that it wasn't worth the cost of fixing. Remember when Batman had all the cool in line props like the cop car and hydrant? Here at SFOT, our Mr. Freeze animatronic did not work for many years. They recently refurbished the animatronic and gave it a "face lift" so that it looks more like the Batman: Animated Series version and less like Arnie. It is now back in operation. Do you have a photo, or better yet, a video?
  8. I found an old Mr. Freeze commercial Even though it is shown very briefly, I've never seen the Mr. Freeze figure that's located in the station actually move.
  9. They're probably just going to reuse the VR headsets they used on their VR coasters
  10. Yep, they’re very serious about that. I applaud them for it! That is correct. Even with Mile High Falls there, it is still quite a dead end where Storm Chaser is. This is also the case for Silver Dollar City’s Outlaw Run. It was a walk on because it too was also located on a dead end.
  11. Feel free to use any photo that I post in my TR thread if you think it looks nice enough for the index https://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=76740
  12. Hey everyone! This will be where I post all my trip reports I make starting from 2018. I hope you all enjoy reading! Trip Reports: 2018: Kentucky Kingdom (See below) The Kingdom, The Flags, and another Kingdom Part 1: Kentucky Kingdom In June of 2018, my family decided to take a vacation to Disney World in Florida. On our way, we stopped by a couple of parks. Our first stop, Louisville, Kentucky. Which is home of Six F- I mean Kentucky Kingdom. I have to say, they really spruced up Kentucky Kingdom since the Six Flags days. Now I have heard that Lightning Run was a great coaster, very smooth and packed a lot of airtime. I went in expecting a coaster similar to others and... ... god damn. Lightning Run is a freaking RMC in disguise! It has ejector airtime, butter smooth transitions, and a sleek looking train! This coaster is so awesome! One thing I would like to compliment is, if you're from out of state, they give you free soda refills! I love that! I'm really more of a coke person, but I'll take Pepsi if its free I love breakdances. Just wanted to say that. I honestly love this park Keep being awesome Lightning Run! T3 looks really nice in the background of the wave pool. as for the ride itself... I'll get to that later. Now I'm heading to the back of the park to get one credit that will be my 100th credit! And the coaster is.... Eye of the Storm! ok ok, In all seriousness, it was Storm Chaser. I could not ask for a better coaster to hit my 100th credit on! It had kick-a$$ airtime, smooth transitions, and best of all, No line! I rerode Storm Chaser at least 5 times. It was so awesome Alright, story time! (well not really a story but whatever) Thunder Run is pretty rough, but it was tolerable and fun. I noticed the camera just a few seconds before we got to it so I decided very quickly to put up some peace signs. I got into pose and... ... wait did the girls sitting in front of me just flip off the camera? I couldn't really tell, so after I got off the ride, I went to the photo booth and I couldn't find my photo. I just shrugged and moved on to my next ride. Hi Bill My next ride was T3. I heard that this SLC was really bad. I kind of doubted it and thought that maybe it would be a hidden gem for me (I like Ninja at Six Flags St Louis. Fight me) so I got on the ride and, WOW. T3 literally the worst coaster I have ever ridden in my life! Everyone who ridden this ride was right about how the new harnesses didn't help the coaster. Once we hit the brakes, it felt like the slowest crawl to the station ever, because the harness was pressing down hard on my legs, to the point where they were going numb. T3 is a one and done ride for me. Nothing on earth will ever make me ride T3 again. The only good thing about T3 is this photo I took. It looks so innocent and nice. After all of that, we headed back to the front half of Kentucky Kingdom by the crosswalk that takes us by the new ride for 2018, Scream Extreme (No photo). I’m so glad Supergirl is coming to SFStL, because those Endeavors are so much fun! My dad really wanted to see the Journey 2 5D show in the Theater before we left the park, so thats what we did. Afterwards, well remember that story on Thunder Run I told you about earlier? Well, Park Security finally caught up to me and told me in a semi stern tone “Do you know these girls?” And showed me an on ride photo of 2 girls flipping the bird with both of their hands in a “Idgaf I’m cool” pose. And right behind them was me, very awkwardly, showing my “peace” sign. I told the security that I didn’t know them and they actually became cool and friendly, thanking me and told me to enjoy my day. Kentucky Kingdom has some great security. I hope they caught those two girls! After all that, it was time to leave the park and make our way to the hotel and head to Huntsville, AL where we booked an overnight stay. But I had to get one more ride on the Breakdance Coming up next: Six Flags over Georgia!
  13. Here: https://www.facebook.com/themeparkreview/videos/577527319422599/ Whoa! That’s even more impressive on video than on photo! Thanks!
  14. I would really like to see a video of the boat jumpers in action. I’m having a hard time finding any
  15. Wow.. that was so trippy! This ride alone makes me want to go to Elitch Gardens
  16. By the looks of the changes, they’re actually treating the park a little better than I expected! Six Flags does have the ability to make nice and detailed theming. They just chose not to for most of their parks most likely to save money for bigger rides. This looks like its going to be a great season for Frontier City!
  17. ^shhhhh, let em find out what six flags does themselves
  18. ^ and all of those questions has one simple answer: Because it's Six Flags
  19. That’s a really nice color scheme FireBird has
