zongaboy626 Posted October 16, 2005 Author Share Posted October 16, 2005 heck maybe even a superman ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I would place bets more on "some more used crap from Astroworld" than any other Superman or Batman coaster. Keep in mind that there is plenty of Batman and Superman merchandise at Six Flags parks that don't even have a Batman or Superman coaster. --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mind Eraser Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 Robb, from what I've heard, Great Adventure's "New for '06" kiddieland is actually gonna be comprised of most or all of the kiddie rides from SFAW. I'm thinking "Awesome! That leaves only adult rides left for the rest of us!" "I'll fight ya for the shuttle loop, bitchface!" -Kip, who would also love the Astroworld stand up at SFA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro X 230 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 It's a possibility that it could be a flyer.... Wasn't the rumor that SF ordered 3 B&Ms for 2006? Goliath, Tatsu is two.... And this is the only other SF park where I have heard anything about land clearing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkTrips Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 ^ La Ronde...? I'm not sure I see the economic benefit of replacing an SLC with a Batman clone, and I wouldn't think that Six Flags would put another flying coaster in the same state in the same year... so that leaves me with the "more crap from Astroworld" selection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnome Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 ^ yeah, there's another batman clone a days drive away from SFMW (and a lot of people have been to SFMM who go to SFMW, or so it seemed the day I was there) so putting in one of those would be stupid, plus Kong is the only SLC in California, and its rather fun, I think. But some of you people are picky and will say otherwise. But who knows what it'll get, but how long would it take to rip down Zonga? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeezus Juice Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Please give us XLR8. I want to swing back and forth dodging Giraffes. Man that would be so cool. Plus their tongues are like 3 feet long so you'd have to keep your arms inside the car at all times. Just turn the cars back around the right way, except for the last one, that way I could watch the black tongues last out behind us. -Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Six Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Granted Zonga is SBNO; but why would they remove it? I mean, they just got it in 03'? _six Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonOfBeastSucks Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I would place bets more on "some more used crap from Astroworld" --Robb Most likely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Let's also not forget that Batman the ride at SFEG is a chance Aviator! Shall we turn this into a poll or should I just throw in another vote for: Used Crap from Astroworld! Although if they do end up selling to CF instead of scrapping the park I wonder what will happen!

FlyingScooter Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 My guess is their line-up will include more: Friendly Family Oriented Bathrooms, fully equipped with 6Flags nonrecycled toilet paper! Fun Fun Fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster1 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Well there have been no decisions made on AW rides yet, all parks have visited to see what they have and what they may want, but you prolly won't see any of the AW rides appear anywhere until 2007 or later, according to what I was told this weekend.

ebl Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Everyone (including me :mrgreen: ) bashes SLCs, but I have to admit that Kong really isn't that bad. Even though I haven't ridden it, and even though I've heard it's not that great, I'd like to see XLR8 relocated to SFMW. There aren't enough Arrow suspended coasters in the world as it is, so to scrap even a mediocre one would really be a loss. Ditto for Ultra Twister. It'd be great to have that come West. It may be rather low in capacity, but it's unique. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zongaboy626 Posted October 18, 2005 Author Share Posted October 18, 2005 zonga is gone it is almost confirmed all the signs are gone and ists not on there site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tmcdllr Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Clicking on rides and attractions, I noticed something I believe is new- what is "STARGATE 3000?" - Is that something that was added in 2005 or is this the Zonga replacement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tmcdllr Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Nevermind, on the site it says it's a motion simulator so that wouldn't be the one replaceing Zonga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollerholden Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 zonga is gone it is almost confirmed all the signs are gone and ists not on there site Wow it is off their site, all I can say is yay!! I hope they really do take it out, it was a terrible ride. Any word on what they're getting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Gumball Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Just to re-comfirm that Zonga is missing on the SF ride list. No word on RCDB yet though. Atleast I got to ride it so I'm happy. They better get something good in replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V2-dude Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 A rumor a few days back on Screamscape said that Zonga was going to be replaced by a B&M. I know SF didn't buy any more than Tatsu and the two Goliaths, but I was just thinkin maybe Batman from Astroworld is coming to SFMW. I know its an Intamin, but maybe the person who gave them that rumor mistaked it for a B&M because of the track type. That's probably not gonna happen but its a possibility. I've also heard that the only reason Zonga is down is because they're getting new trains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DATman Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 If SFMW was getting a Batman coaster, don't you think that we'd know about it already, seeing as they'd need to start vert. construction basically right now? My bet is on Astroworld crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Gumball Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Well, Batman: The Escape (I think that's what it was called) was from SFAW. Honestly, I don't mind seeing SFAW's rides being put to use instead of going to waste, provided they run good when we get 'em here unlike Zonga.

V2-dude Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 B:TE wouln't take that long to build because its small and isn't a terrain coaster or anything, and Zonga already has a concrete slab for it. I still think Zonga's getting new trains though, and it was just oof the site because it was SBNO. P.S. Is flashback still on SFMM's site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
