"Lazer" becomes the first IKEA coaster

[Kooky]

its nearly completed, so here the newest really nice pics from http://freizeitparkweb.de/cgi-bin/dcf/dcboard.cgi?az=show_thread&om=7480&forum=DCForumID4&viewmode=all again from the user "pinion" <- big thx for them:

My God it looks beautiful again. I want to touch it.

It doesn't seem to have the 2nd station installed...I can't see how'd they efficiently run 3 trains without it.

[Kooky]

So finally the first train arrived and it looks beautiful.... no shoulder restraints and a nice color theme. Here is the link to the pics, but you had to open it twice, to be directly linked to the pictures:

and there was a picture on http://freizeitparkweb.de/dcf/User_files/4a575c7018eac11d.jpg which showed that they had to correct something for the new trains on the track:

I'm going to come right out and say I'm not too enthusiastic about these new trains. I mean, they look sort of Intamin-esque, but I do love the old panelled front Schwarzy trains.

[Wild 1]

All I going to say is WOW. Those trains look nice and they don't have OTSR's, now all they have to do is get SFMM to buy a couple of these and put them on Revolution!

 

As for Lazer or whatever it is called now, It looks really nice! I am very happy that this coaster is being restored to its former glory.

I'm guessing Intamin made the new trains, right? At least they look like they should be a little more comfortable than the old Schwarzkopf trains.

[Team Thriller]

Maybe I missed something, and this is probably a stupid question, but where is this being built again?

 

EDIT: I assume it will be traveling, I'm talking about through what fairs? For example, will it be at the Oktober Fest?

^^ In the german forums they said that the trains were built from "Schäfer Amusement Technology". So no Intamin.

 

^ The next town seems to be Nürnberg. But i don`t think it will be on the Oktoberfest in Munich because they already had there the OlympiaLooping. Its the third big travelling coaster in germany so maybe it will go to other smaller towns like Stuttgart or (like i wish) to my hometown Freiburg for example.

 

And the newest photos, again from the use "pinion" from http://freizeitparkweb.de/cgi-bin/dcf/dcboard.cgi?az=show_thread&om=7480&forum=DCForumID4&viewmode=all:

 

 

and from the user "websi":

It is so weird to see pictures of a coaster that I just rode last summer being assembled half way around the world. Glad I did my trip when I did and didn't miss this fun little ride. Kinda sad how the US is losing so many awesome Schwarzkopf rides. Weird looking train by the way. Never seen anything like that before.

[Kooky]

There is a testvideo on YouTube from the first rides:

I'm guessing those trains are the same as on Praters boomerang, right?

If that's the case, than I can guarantee an awesome ride!

[Hattuchili]

Looks nice, even I don´t like the color theme so much. Anyway, I am looking forward to ride that coater anytime this year.

If it was an Ikea Coaster, wouldn't the layout be MUCH more confusing?
