DiSab Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Kinda like what Dorney did with the whole Hercules/Hydra thing. That could turn out to be something interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

packfanlv Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 ^Thanks for posting the update. I think the new color scheme looks really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolliger&Mabillard Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Looks like this is going to end up being "LexCorp" the ride.... Meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason10 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I'm really not sure about the colour scheme. I don't like it that much. I prefer the old on in all honesty but I'll have to wait and see before making my final judgement. Who knows? I may change my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpengeist04 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 It's not so much the individual colors for me, but the combination of purple and blue that I'm not crazy about. Now if they where to add a third color like on Scream, maybe that would be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if they where to add a third color like on Scream, maybe that would be better. I couldn't agree more. I didn't realise until you said it that it was the combination of the colours I wasn't keen on. They're too similar and so it just doesn't look right to me. It just needs a totally contrasting colour to make it a bit more interesting. I love the colour blue, but not next to purple! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolliger&Mabillard Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Blue supports with yellow spine would've looked nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 So is that the final color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packfanlv Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 The more I look at it, I tend to agree with you guys. Perhaps yellow or even red would have been a better choice instead of purple for the supports. Either way I think it is still an improvement over the old colors IMO.

Lenaapple1974 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I most definitely love Medusa. It is one of my three favorite coasters at SFGA. I totally enjoyed the lack of lines, as I got to ride it over and over again. When I last rode it, it was very smooth. Granted it was kind of raining.... LOL A revamp is extremely cool though. I love the blue track! At this point, I dont care what they do with other colors. I just want a great ride experience. I cant wait to hear what they do for the retheming though. A new name... very interesting. After getting up to speed, and reading the 18 pages of updates, I went to the DC site, and tried to maybe figure a character that goes with that blue. None really do. Not any popular ones anyhow. Very interesting that they are totally holding out on us until Spring. I look forward to new updates! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Sim. Fan Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Any one else think those supports don't look repainted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuartnz Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I think that deep blue would look great if it wasn't for the purple. It clashes! :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolliger&Mabillard Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I went to the DC site, and tried to maybe figure a character that goes with that blue. None really do. Not any popular ones anyhow Cenestro (archenemy to the Green Lantern) or Mr. Freeze. Those are the only two that come to mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiyoh1984 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Let's just hope this is something that disperses itself evenly throughout the chain. Texas Giant should be a jail sentence rather than an amusement ride. Just throwing ideas out there. TG is no walk in the park. But arn't most of the woodies Built by the Dinn Corp (TG, Psyclone, Meanstreak for example) rough? Or is this just due to age? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiyoh1984 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I think the idea of refurbing existing rides is a great idea. I remember going to astroworld after Serial Thriller and Texas Tornado were installed, Batman, and the other coasters were looking pretty shabby. Although they did get a new coat of paint before the end, I think the existing rides should have been priority over just getting somthing new. A new coat of paint can do wonders for the look of the ride and the park. The majority of park goers, are not coaster experts, most do not know the difference.

TheHulk Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Personally, I like the old color scheme better. It needed repainting, but still, I would've gone with previous colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
televisedconfession Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Does anyone know what kind of paint they use to paint coasters? Like is it a polymer, latex? I've always wondered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolliger&Mabillard Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 ^^^^ You are right...Curtis Summers was like Ron Toomer of the woodie coaster world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wood Dragon 1988 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I actually really like the new color scheme. Kind of reminds me of Griffon's color scheme. Really? Griffon's light blue looks much different to me. I like it just for a change I guess. The green was really fading, but I was surprised how smooth the ride was last year. Can't wait to go back to Great Adventure next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdude5 Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Why does everbody say it was green? It always looked neon yellow to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b&mforever Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 ^ I don't know if you have, but if you see it in person its clearly green. The colors look off in most photos and I was surprised when i saw it this year, how much worse the photos made the paint look than it actually was..
