Danrarbc 8 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 We can take the Stand Up Trains from SFA and put them on the Ninja! Batman. Both B&Ms. You can hang upside down from the rail like a bat. Link to post Share on other sites
Stagman 0 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Went to the park today. Crowds weren’t bad at all. It was great seeing Shazam back up and running. I was disappointed the Tommy G wasn’t running. I usually like to enjoy a ride around the park on the train. Link to post Share on other sites
HARLEYGUYJB 0 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) It was running in the later part of the day. Here are a few photos of the scrambler and it looks like it has new led lights too! Also, the Justice League building is looking really rough!

Danrarbc 8 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Yeah the surface of the building started peeling almost immediately after Justice League opened. If I was SF I'd be suing someone over that - it isn't acceptable. Link to post Share on other sites
thisdougsforu 0 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Glad to see the Scrambler is back in operation. It looks nice with the TLC. I would think with it going back in place this late in the season, that it will remain there and not move to Fling's old spot. Guess we don't have to wait long to see what is going to fill that area.

prozach626 67 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 That's a shame about JL. I guess I never noticed it. Maybe that came with the territory of being the first of its kind, although it's not like redoing a building is a new practice. I don't think it has anything to do with SF, but not repairing it certainly does. Link to post Share on other sites
SteveStL 0 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Looks like they used Primered Drywall on that facade. No doubt they did it on the Cheap. Link to post Share on other sites
prozach626 67 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Hmmmm. I guess there's a likelihood either the park or corporate made that decision. Link to post Share on other sites
ytterbiumanalyst 0 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Honestly the ride was probably beyond what the park could hope to make back from it. Hence why they shared the filming costs with Arlington. Likely they did cheap out on the stuff that guests were less likely to notice, at least in the short term. Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think it has anything to do with SF, but not repairing it certainly does. The weaker Computing hardware and weaker projection systems on our version and I'm assuming the one in Texas are the results of being first. Cheap building construction is a different issue entirely.

Woodie Warrior 0 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Yeah it's been looking rough for a while now. Hopefully they get around to fixing it soon, but I'm not holding my breath. Any predictions for next year? I'm assuming they're looking to fill Highland Fling's old spot. Maybe a 2nd gen enterprise? Link to post Share on other sites
tanthonyam 1 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Let's hope Xcalibur gets the same TLC like scrambler did. Anyone know why its been down so long? Link to post Share on other sites
theymitbgi 0 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Isn't it kind of a sad state of affairs when the highlight of the summer for our park is getting a scrambler up and running? Link to post Share on other sites

ALT2870 0 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Any predictions for next year? I'm assuming they're looking to fill Highland Fling's old spot. Maybe a 2nd gen enterprise? Besides a park or two, really seems like Six Flags has done an excellent job of keeping 2019 announcements under wraps. Six Flags rarely replaces a ride with a similar ride type especially within the same pad. If I had to take a guess I would say Shazam moves up to Fling's spot and the SFOT trokia takes its spot since it is themed appropriate for that area. Of course that prediction would make sense so knowing Six Flags I'm probably wrong. I do firmly believe that a Raptor will eventually come to the park but not this year.

prozach626 67 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I do firmly believe that a Raptor will eventually come to the park but not this year. You cray! Whatever happens, I hope the area from Log Flume to JB's gets some updates and TLC. Outside of some of the queues, that's one of the only areas which seems very much run down.

You made me cringe with that word there. The only thing worse would have been if you put a pound symbol before that word. Didn't say when. Someone will send a used one there eventually.

STLSPINSANITY 0 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 With all of the maintenance problems this year could it be possible to get a new ride and a used ride from another park. Link to post Share on other sites

I mean plenty of SF parks receive two or three flats when they get flats. But not us... Link to post Share on other sites

They just got the thing up and running, no way are they moving Shazam. I predict we will get a used Flat (yes, prob that one from Dallas) to go in Fling's spot. That's it.

thisdougsforu 0 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Saw CoasterStudios SixFlags prediction video and most of it makes sense....except for St. Louis where he thinks a Raptor is a good bet to be announced this year. If not that, maybe a frisbee. Ha. Ha.Ha. HAHAHAHAHA It's troika time. Link to post Share on other sites
ytterbiumanalyst 0 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 he thinks a Raptor is a good bet to be announced this year. If not that, maybe a frisbee. Don't fall for it. Clearly he's bet the house against a Raptor and he's trying to drum up bets on the other side. Link to post Share on other sites
