Pringlez Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 New Images from the construction site! This time not much from the coaster itself, but from other areas. Tons of new plants, trees, road works et cetera included! Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pringlez Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 And some new impressions from the coaster and its theming, sent by Michael Mack himself Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DandAyr Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 so looking forward to our first ever visit to europa park in early July. Saw a comment this is being called a family coaster - have the age and height limits been announced yet? Did not see mention of that yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kooky Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 ^ good question. To ride this you had to be 10 years old and minimum heigt of 1,40 meters (=~4,6 ft). I think they just call it so because the park especially concentrates on familys as costumers. In press material they talk about a "megacoaster"... So i think they will use the expression which is in the best context depending on where the text is published. For teens its a megacoaster for familys its a family one.

spaceace12 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 This image sorta funny to me, I seen all kinds of heavy equipment, but never seen a back hoe (track hoe or whatever it is ) with wheels instead of tracks. Awesome pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome pictures. Lol, these kind of machines are so usual in Germany. The ones with tracks are also used, but not very often. Mostly it's this shown type. Because you can drive with it far better on the streets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kooky Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 so a new big update from tests of the ride and from the surrounding area: following pics are from the new parking area from the park, the hotels and ohter parts next to the new ride: all pics from http://www.epfans.info/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreditCrazy Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 Those trains really threw me off at first. They almost looked like laydown trains, but I'm sure they'll look normal with people in there. Blue Fire also now has a big part in the park's skyline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atem122 Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I wish all coasters had trains like that but this and Ispeed are looking beautiful, and as credit crazy said, it has a huge impact on the skyline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeT Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I had the Chance to take a look at Blue Fire "live" a few days ago. Man, this Coaster is a Beauty ! Seems as if the Pics are unable to show how shining the Color of the track is. I looked at the overbanked Curve just after the Loop from different angles...this is definitively "Maverick-style"...amazing ! And I cat`t help but ask my self how the reactions will be, especially in THIS Community, when Blue Fire opens and the first feedbacks will appear... AND : I wonder if this Coaster has the Potential to enter top five, maybe even top three in the forthcoming Steel Coaster Poll... Man, I`m so curious...

Ryancrash Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Blue Fire sure looks like one helluva ride! I love the rocks, the tunnel, the color scheme... this coaster is gonna be a winner. Can't wait to go back to Deutschland and Europa Park!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
