jmicha Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 ^^Isn't park of the track a very light pink? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Théo the little french Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 If Orochi really goes to Walygator, do not expect nice colours for the track: they are used to love horrible colours for their rides. Moreover this park doesn't make a lot of money, so they'll probably find a sponsor (like EGF and BigFM) so it won't help to do something very artistic (their space shot is sponsored by the drink Dark Dog and they've put an horrible yellow thing around the tower). If you can, try to find pics on google to see a little more my thought^^[/u] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Thriller Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 It's on RCDB that a new coaster is going to Walygator park. --James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocket Rodder Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Damn it! We will gladly trade Silver Bullet for Orochi, please? I... hesitantly concur.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Théo the little french Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 It's on RCDB that a new coaster is going to Walygator park. --James You're right, but I've been explained that sometimes they make mistakes, like screamscape.... However, a member of Coasters World has sent a mail to Walygator, and they didn't say it was "only a rumor" (but they didn't say more about it lol).

FLIPDUDE Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Huh... I never knew Expoland closed... What happened to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 So it's going from one crappy park to another. Glad I already have the credit so there is no reason for me to go back to Walygator! --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob! Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I think that if Orochi will really be in Walygator Park, this little park will become a second Holiday Park. EGF was a very good addition to Holiday Park, but its maintenance costs are just too expensive, and I think it will happen the same things to Walygator.

haux Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Huh... I never knew Expoland closed... What happened to it? A woman died on the Togo stand-up coaster. The entire park shut down shortly after that, and it just never reopened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 ^ actually it did reopen for about six months in late 07 / early 08. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-RadG Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 ^If you notice a lot of B&M coasters have a dark shade on the top/bottom (depending on whether it's sit down/inverted) and ties, and a lighter shade on the top. In Orochi's case it's white and pink on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI Jizzman Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Those pieces look VERY similar to the new B&M track at Carowinds. Fishy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-RadG Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 ^That's because on B&Ms the spine moves down to make room for the brakes/drive wheels, a standard B&M brake doesn't fit in the area on a normal track. http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/573imgp9152_157.jpg If you look up to the MCBR you'll see how the spine moves up and the rails and ties stay the same height to accommodate the brakes. http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/img_0033_192.jpg Then if you look at the brake run behind the station you'll see the same.

Yeah, I was trying to compare it to Diamondback, but I couldn't find any of those large spines on it near the break run; because I watch the transfer track every day.

andyuk200523 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I hope they are at least going to paint it before they construct it at Walygator! Nothing better than opening a new ride which is already a bit rusty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Disneylander Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 "The Monster"? Did they receive help from Cedar Fair? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolliger&Mabillard Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Maybe they took a page from Six Flags' Playbook. If you name your coaster "Monster", Frenchies will think it's either greater or equal to God, and say it rocks and post on facebook that America sucks.

coolcalicoaster Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 "The Monster"? Did they receive help from Cedar Fair? Would you rather have six flags name it Bizarro, Superman, or Terminator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matteocrepaldi Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Is there any chance they change the color scheme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Peck Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 You'd think since it's a French Park, Wallygator would have named it "Le Monster" I hope that's not the final logo or font they use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
