gerstlaueringvar Posted October 25, 2014 Author Share Posted October 25, 2014 ^ I hope Shibaolai manufacturers something nobody can see. Even their trash cans are cheap and ugly. Nanfang makes some relatively high quality flat rides, Disney can buy high quality spinning cup, marry go round etc from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcjp Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 New batch of photos I found here. So much "knocking-off"...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted October 26, 2014 Author Share Posted October 26, 2014 One more thing I learned about that Shibaolai Boomerang, one of the supports actually BROKE during the safety assessment test! People, stay away from this thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Projektion Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 One more thing I learned about that Shibaolai Boomerang, one of the supports actually BROKE during the safety assessment test! People, stay away from this thing! If that's true, I can see these chinese knockoff's being a really bad thing for the amusement industry. If that had happened while riders were on it, and news got over to the west, it would probably scare many people from going to a theme park again.

rcjp Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Is the SLC real? I wouldn't say so. I imagine that if even the boomerang isn't, the SLC probably is a knock-off as they already have some "experience" with those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutterflower Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Looks like track is on site for the Mack Mega Coaster. Â The shots below appeared on Weibo last night and show some track arriving. although it doesn't give location information this is the only Mack being built this year in China. Â I think with the success of Helix this is probably the most exciting project this year anywhere in the world. Hyper style layout from Mack with the worlds tallest vertical loop to boot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradox Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 The only real thing at the park. Â Do patents/copyrights not apply in China? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedimaster1227 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 ^Pretty much not. They technically can be approached with legal action but the knock-off companies are essentially protected by their business being isolated to China. They have been punished when they've tried to take part in the IAAPA Expo where they were removed from the expo due to copyright breaches, but besides that, not much has or can be done.

gerstlaueringvar Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 It makes me sad that those well made Mack track pieces were delivered like this. Â ^^As for now, not in the amusement industry. But regardless of what they do, those companies don't have the quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GwaziBSRider1 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I thought all of the "real" projects for this park were cancelled after that Boomerang incident earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRCT3 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 We have a glimpse of a new ride from Mack coming in Asia, maybe it's this one? Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gutterflower Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 (edited) We have a glimpse of a new ride from Mack coming in Asia, maybe it's this one?  It's tough to tell but it doesn't look like it lines up with the layout images we've seen   Interesting stuff if that means we have another Mack too look forwards to. We already have at least 1 more Blue Fire clone (Wanda Harbin) coming soon. Edited November 9, 2015 by Gutterflower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadianparkfan Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Coasters look like a piece of Sh*t at this park, however, the flats look pretty cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_koppen Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 We have a glimpse of a new ride from Mack coming in Asia, maybe it's this one?  That actually looks pretty spot on for Alpin Blitz at Nigloland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutterflower Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Who designed this? Seriously who designed this?  It's a BJA home coaster model. There's 2 already at the two Euro Parks that opened last year. Such as this one http://rcdb.com/12108.htm  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDG Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 That actually looks pretty spot on for Alpin Blitz at Nigloland. At first glance, but it's different. Â Anyway, that screenshot is from a French documentary about "amusement parks": Â Â The Mack segment starts at 50:15, and in the offices, looking at that screen, the Mack guy says "It's for a client in Asia. It's about 10 million euro. It's a big coaster." A couple minutes later, they walk outside and you see red track, and again they say "It's for a client in Asia."

Gutterflower Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) Don't think its this ride. It doesn't tie in with the plans as far as I can tell. Although theres track at Lewa World now thats orange / red. there was also red track at Macks factory with green supports. No one seems to know where thats going.

rcjp Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 ^^Interesting. That looks like quite a lot of airtime hills for a looping ride. I guess they're not going for the usual "inversions-only" coaster that, for instance, B&M does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gutterflower Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Wow that looks stunning. Is it me or is the first airtime hill after the turn around actually a massive zero-g-roll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
