cwsr Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I went to MOA yesterday for a little break from the real world. I am going to let the pictures do most of the talking. Spongebob and Avatar were testing most of the day. So here they are, in no particular order. Part 1. Just incase anybody wants a higher resolution copy of any of these photo's, you can get them at my webshots page. http://community.webshots.com/album/562662226JoMTEU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunfire Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Whoa! So many awesome pics! Spongebob is looking really good. Is it open or are they just testing it right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haiderodes Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 ^ Lots of great photos. Seeing the "Atomic Collider" really makes me miss Tampico Tumbler at Knott's. I really think its cool that they have been trying to keep as many rides open as possible during the transition. It can't be easy for them, but shows they want the best possible experience for the paying guests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Thriller Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Awesome pictures. I personally like the look of Camp Snoopy better, but this park is probably much funnier now. --James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 That theming around SB's station looks really good! Its really 5g's? Thats alot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rousea Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Does anyone know what theme the small frog hopper ride will have? It seems out of place... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hand 0f Time Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Impressive photo-shots. I'm liking the layout of that orange roller coaster, which I can't think of the name at the top of my head. Rock bottom plunge looks like a real fun ride too. Some odd reason, that Danny Phantom ride looks like a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterKev! Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 ^^ It will be themed to The Wonder Pets! cK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmerleeberry Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Looking at those sexy pictures caused me to be ! This looks like a park with the kiddie theme, but still having some thrills to satisfy a thrill seeker like myself. Best of all, because the park is indoor, the park can be opened 365 days a year (okay, maybe the park will be closed on certain holidays, but it'll be opened during the winter season where it'll be roasty and toasty inside). Once again, nice pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ETapley0687 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Excellent update!!! I like what i'm seeing so far and that was the most I've ever seen of the whole park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jekoon Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 That park looks great. I've never seen night pictures before. Thanks! The Nick atmosphere looks impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almightyfire Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Now this is a place i would go to 3 times a week year round. It has a movie theatre i see also. There should be one of these in every major city. The Nick themeing is getting a little annoying after a few pics but the rides are perfect. where is this place located?

Sticky Nicky Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Bloomington, MN, it is about 5 mins from the MSP international airport and 15-20 mins from Minneapolis. *The Park is open everyday except Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rousea Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 ^^ It will be themed to The Wonder Pets! cK Thanks! I really did not know how the frog was related to Nick, but now I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberskara Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 ^Actually, as of today, the frog is no longer on the ride. I'm guessing something else will replace it. Wonder Pets? Man, all of these new Nick shows I've never heard of sure do a great job of making me feel old! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drop-Out Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 It's Awesome to see Nick jump out from the Nickelodeon Central/Nickelodeon Universe theming levels and actually feel immersive. No cheap coats of paint and new pavement here, they have murals, character sculptures, new structures, new coasters that are actually themed, and my favorite part, the column wraps. I hope Rugrats and Danny Phantom get wraps, they deserve them since they have rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastercrazed49 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 The park really looks awesome. I wonder why they themed those bumper cars to Rug Rats because I don't think they even show that on Nick anymore. Also it might be a problem if one of the major rides that are themed to there new shows and the show gets cancelled. They might have a problem with that.

Coastercameron Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Looks like you nearly missed me a few times while you were taking your photos. Throughout the evening I was at Twister, Tree Top Tumbler, and Ripsaw. I hope you enjoyed your visit despite the long lines and understaffing we had last night.

Drop-Out Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 ^i'm guessing it's because: A. The park's concept was created when Rugrats was showing on Nick, or B. as a tribute to Nick's longest running series. Which is why I would like if they had a wall with images of past shows and what year they premiered. It would be nice for a tribute to past shows.

haiderodes Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I noticed that all of these shows are of the newer, younger Nickelodeon and not the Nick us kids of the 80s grew up with. I think the shows they have now lend better to such a theme park concept whereas they are mostly animated shows. The Nick of the past was more live action.

ETapley0687 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 ^ And that was the best Nickelodeon ever! lol I don't turn to that channel now unless nothing's on except for Spongebob... and I don't even watch that much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
