Jcoaster Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 All reasons why Im curious to ride it. I’ve always like the SLC layout, now I can actually enjoy it since it would be like getting into a car accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluggo77 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Things are looking good at the park. Here’s a few drone update pics thanks to SFNE Online. South End will definitely have a new look this year. Harley Quinn is installed. Tea Cups are now in their new location. New rest rooms coming along in the North End and Speed Trap has been moved to where the Loney Toons stage used to be. Mind Eraser / ?’s new look is well underway.

Canobie Coaster Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Whoa! We had a strong hunch Riddler was coming, but the green paint seems to confirm it now. I like how the track contrasts with Superman now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 That green looks great. Its a shame Batman is not getting a fresh coat, would really tie it all together. Also is it just me or is that frisbee entirely too close to Joker? I'm sure its fine but it looks entirely too close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluggo77 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) I agree the new colors are a great contrast to Superman now. Yea I think HQ is going to give some crazy close looks at Joker when in full swing. Edited March 27, 2018 by Sluggo77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Mutts Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Would have gone with black supports instead of lemon yellow but other than that it looks good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluggo77 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 They are going with the same look that SFMM went with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 ^ Riddler's Revenge at SFMM used to have the green and black color scheme before switching to the bright green and yellow one seen here. I agree that I personally prefer the black supports too, but the track color pops so much that is what you mostly notice. That green looks great. Its a shame Batman is not getting a fresh coat, would really tie it all together. Also is it just me or is that frisbee entirely too close to Joker? I'm sure its fine but it looks entirely too close. When I heard where Harley Quinn was going, I knew it'd be close to the Joker. That's going to create some really scary visuals on the swings.

Sluggo77 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) I wonder if they are going to have to put up netting or some other type of protection over Joker’s queue to avoid an potentially issues with flying objects from HQ.

coasterbill Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Wow, that Slingshot placement is um... ... really something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sluggo77 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 ^Yea that thing seems very out of place. Not a fan of it going there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sportsdude360 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 No surprise they put Harley right next to Joker. They're doing the same here at SFOT with our Harley Quinn which is an ABC rides Tourbillion. We have a Riddler as well, but ours is the Discovery.

Canobie Coaster Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Wow, that Slingshot placement is um... ... really something. I somehow missed Slingshot when I first looked. That pathway could turn into quite the chokepoint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srosdude Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 That green looks great. Its a shame Batman is not getting a fresh coat, would really tie it all together. Also is it just me or is that frisbee entirely too close to Joker? I'm sure its fine but it looks entirely too close. Apparently it gets within 12 feet of Joker, and 10 feet of the Hot Dog stand.

Canobie Coaster Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I know that's plenty of clearance, but that's going to feel like nothing while riding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coneyislandchris Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I think it looks fantastic! The green and yellow really makes it pop and seems well suited to that layout and track style. I haven't been on it since before they got the new trains, so I'm looking forward to giving this a second chance when I get back up there later this season.

Sluggo77 Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Definitely give it a shot. The new trains dramatically improved the ride. Still tosses you around good but no head banging at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Yeah, I love Mind Eraser now. It feels weird having those words leave my mouth in that order but it's true. Also... check them out painting rides that barely even need it. A few years back I was very critical of this park but I love everything they're doing lately.

boldikus Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 That paint looks great. So much better than the old color scheme, which looked awful in front of Superman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
