YoshiFan Posted December 25, 2005 Posted December 25, 2005 That looks a lot better. I didn't know they painted it again
MattJackson Posted December 25, 2005 Author Posted December 25, 2005 ^ Yeah, its OK, SFGAd doesn't really try to advertise rides in that area. Batman's been that color since the beginning of the 2005 season. But that yellow was bleech! Beyond tacky! Everytime I see a photo of when it was that color I want to tear my own eyeballs out!
waterviper Posted December 25, 2005 Posted December 25, 2005 This scheme is awfull the colours clash and its just not nice on the eyeshttp://www.rcdb.com/ig1672.htm?picture=1  is it me or do most of the Reverchon Spinning Coasters have disgusting colour schemes  Here is another coaster from the same park!! Brean Leisure Park Wow the color matching on this clash so bad!!! :shock: Shockwave *pic from rcdb
coasterjon Posted December 25, 2005 Posted December 25, 2005 They do dont they. Â I wonder which park has the most coasters with bad colour schemes
waterviper Posted December 25, 2005 Posted December 25, 2005 ^Nope! It's in the UK!!!! Â Brean Leisure Park (Brean, Somerset TA8 2QY UK)
Sebbe Posted December 25, 2005 Posted December 25, 2005 That beats it all. What did they thought as the colored it? http://www.rcdb.com/ig158.htm?picture=1 Â Sebbe
Blazen_AZN Posted December 25, 2005 Posted December 25, 2005 ^^^what were they thinking when they BOUGHT it?? Â Definately some park in Japan! Â Super Funtime Happy Sparkle Land!!! Â well if it existed (and im sure several do!) it would have bad color schemes...
coasterjon Posted December 25, 2005 Posted December 25, 2005 i think the people who chose these colours were a bit drunk when they made there decision
Majorwoodie Posted December 25, 2005 Posted December 25, 2005 Goliath at SFOG. The ride looks great. The name and color, YAWN!
Captain Jack Posted December 26, 2005 Posted December 26, 2005 For those guys mentioning Batman at Six Flags GADV, it's been yellow since the 2004 season with midnight blue supports. It had black supports and track with yellow rails that turned a rusty color which lasted from 1993 to 2003. Personally, especially with Batman Begins and Batman's darker image, the ride looks stronger in black. However, they did clean up the theming around the ride, it used to have that beaten up Gotham City sewer feel. Over the summer I also noticed the yellow of Batman blends to much with Nitro's yellows, and Nitro is right behind Batman.

MattJackson Posted December 27, 2005 Author Posted December 27, 2005 ^ Yeah, It's only been completely yellow for one year. I went in late June and it was gray on gray. The theming is disappearing, but the gray is, IMO, the best. Â Speaking of SFGAd, does anyone think Medusa is severely misthemed? Medusa is the name of a greek god, and they have a western mining company theme. The color of it and the theming clash strongly.

Stitch Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 I always found Hypersonic's paint scheme dull http://www.rcdb.com/ig729.htm?picture=1

peteb Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 Sooper Dooper Looper at Hersheypark used to be a shade of white when new and now has this drab blue/ rusty track / black support scheme. I think it should go back to it's original color.
timetrial3141592 Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 And now: the "Painting the Great Nor'easter Show!" BOB: Hey Bill, let's paint this coaster. BILL: Great idea! *At the paint store* BILL: Ooh ooh! Let's paint it this red cxolor! BOB: All of it? BILL: Yeah! *1 month later* BOB: Great job, Bill. ACE GUY: That is the ugliest coaster ever! OTHER ACE GUY: Meh, it's a credit. *fade out*
MattJackson Posted December 29, 2005 Author Posted December 29, 2005 Holy Crap, The Great Nor' Easter is supposed to be RED!?!?? It looks pretty pink to me!
Captain Jack Posted December 29, 2005 Posted December 29, 2005 B:TR has been yellow for two years @ SF:GADV. It was yellow with midnight blue supports since the 2004 season, which makes it two years of being yellow, not only one. The gray Batman is at SF Magic Mountain, and it's been that way since it opened.

CP_RULES Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 I really dont like Nitros colors. Its supposed to be a macho coaster and it has a purple type color? UGH, the colors CLASH and are terrible IMO.
Darien Laker Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 I really don't like the typical Six Flags SLC colors with the pinkish track and teal supports. It looks kind of pukish.
MattJackson Posted February 21, 2006 Author Posted February 21, 2006 ^^Wait, purple? I don't think its purple, that's pink to me...But I like it anyway!
Nick-Mac Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 i agree, the pukish pinkish tealish crap looks like crap. Geauga Lake painted Thunderhawk (formely Serial Thriller) but I believe Mind Eraser at Darien lake still has the crap colors
