Six Flags New England (SFNE) Discussion Thread

[Olsor]

Question of the day--which is worth more: a fictitious stock or Six Flags stock?

 

Clawshun Industries is an anagram for Sandwiches Ruin Lust.

 

Also:

 

Stud Wins Urine Clash

[ahecht]

And Clawshun is an anagram for both "saw lunch" and "was lunch"

[LiVeToThRiLl90]

This seems like a real toss-up. Maybe it will be something like California Screamin'?

[Homer]

Clawshun... caution? It also looks like Metropolis' economy is also in the gutter too.

 

Here's hoping this is as epic as Fahrenheit's hype was.

SFNE Online has posted photos of S:ROS being re-painted...PURPLE! Check out the pic below and then click here:

Prince in the hizzouse!

[Rct3man777]

Dear Lord, I hope that's photoshopped.

[Airtime&Gravity]

At first I thought that the purple was a primer for some reason, but it now sounds like purple is the new track color. If purple is the final color, it is not like the coaster will look bad, it just wasn't expected.

[Bolliger&Mabillard]

Purple? That came out of left field.

[Shavethewhales]

It looks really good! I hope they re-paint the supports as well - maybe a burnt orange or grey...

 

It's just nice to see a major coaster be painted something other than red.

[bspellx5]

Yeah, it is being painted purple. The latest word in the street is that it's not even going to be Superman anymore, it's going to be themed to Lex Luthor in some way..not the best idea in my opinion, and I really don't think people are gonna stop calling it Superman since it's always been known that way.

Not entirely these things are planned. I am debating that on GADV's Medusa blue color choice..besides that fact they have over stock on blue paint from doing Batman The Ride's supports the same color.

Lex Luther: Ride of Scalp

 

Instant winner.

[woodshopbro]

i think it looks pretty cool id would be completely fine if it was purple

[Moose]

It looks like a few supports are already turning grey, or perhaps a baby blue, it's tough to tell.

 

As long as the colors don't clash, I'll be happy, well as long as it rides the same or better.

I think that's plastic covering the supports. There have been photos posted of the supports being repainted the same general shade.

 

Edit: While I'm at it, I hate the purple, but I think it's for more personal reasons. It's like they've slowly been changing things since I worked there and this is just one more (big) thing. It's tough when I spent so much time with that ride.

[spacemtfan]

EDIT: Let's hope they don't screw it up, like Knott's did with Boomerang.

 

 

Eeehhh...as if the park didn't look bad already...

[PeoplemoverMatt]

A retheme to Lex Luthor would be a pretty "bald" choice...

[Mr. Starr]

If you click on the link, it says that Mind Eraser is being painted with the same scheme. Overstock of purple paint much?

I think you misread that. It means it's being repainted the same red and teal.

[ElToroExtreme]

I love the new color scheme! after 10 solid years its time for a full revamp and name change!

Well they could do what SFA did & repaint ME in yellow(track),orange(structure).Purple is not the color used for primer,most primers used for coaster painting are white & not purple.

[almightyfire]

I dont see anything wrong with the purple

In the case of SROS at NE the primer was a RUST color! I think most of them are that color... but im not 100% sure on that!
