SharkTums Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I'm shocked at all of the theming they're putting into this. I guess after seeing Booster Bikes lack of theming I wasn't expecting much, but this is way more like the inside section of the park theming wise!

verticalzero Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Toverland is catching up De-Eftling with it's wonderful theming. The Dutch do their coasters right and nothing is spared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airtime&Gravity Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Wow, Troy continues to get better every week, and this appears to be the best wooden coaster built in several years. I never thought of Toverland of having themed rides, but that will change now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastermaniac1 Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 It looks amazing!! I really hope that this boosts their attendance so they continue to expand their outdoor section. This looks like the best GCI to me. This is a great investment by the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav- Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Wow, those trains look great and very comfortable, the track is also coming together quickly, it looks like there going to make it on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I love Millenium Flyer trains so comfertable i could sit in one all day. Also i love how MF train restraints fall down and you can pull them up about 4-5 inches and imagin the air you are about to recieve. Thats how thy are on Thunderhead for me atleast.

snorkymn Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 After going through all the pics, this coaster looks a LOT like Renegade to me. (including the cars, the station, and the queues) If it rides anything like Renegade, they'll definitely have a hit on their hands! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfne2005 Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 That station is going to be loud when the trains makes its station fly-through! I thought waiting in the station for Kentucky Rumbler was loud - this is gonna be excruciating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kraken613 Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 That station is going to be loud when the trains makes its station fly-through! I thought waiting in the station for Kentucky Rumbler was loud - this is gonna be excruciating. You have obviously never been on Thunderhead. The track gos right through the station above your haed! It looks like it enters from a turn like Thunderhead and leave going down giving a pop of air like Thunderhead. It tooks like Troy and Thunderhead are related. Those beautiful GCI seats so comfortable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastermaniac1 Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 This looks amazing, miles better than Renegade, this has great themeing landscaping and it is higher and faster than Renegade. To me everything on this looks better than Renegade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 i dont know man, did you see the POV of RENEGADE? looks pretty intense to me. They both look intimidating and beautiful to me... - thats a good mix! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snorkymn Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 Well, I've actually been on Renegade, more than 40 times, and can honestly say it's a great ride, in literally every seat on the train. Definitely the most fun I'd had on a wooden coaster in a LONG time.. It's just fun, intense, smooth, has great twists and turns, and seems to be getting even better in the month that it's been open. (And definitely more air time now than when it first opened, so it's wearing in nicely.) You cannot help but have a smile on your face when riding it, and will probably find yourself yelling and hollering in joy and excitement. And you have to love a woodie that doesn't beat the crap out of you to give you a fun ride. And I'm more typically a steel coaster fan than a woodie fan, so it's almost hard for me to say such good things about a woodie. I was actually disappointed when a woodie was announced at VF and not an Invert, (and even wrote Cedar Fair and told them SO!) but am VERY, VERY, pleasantly surprised at how good Renegade is. It would definitely be fun to try this new coaster when it opens to compare. It's possible that it's better than Renegade, but Renegade is a pretty darn nice coaster. Give it the props it deserves. (Especially if you haven't ridden it.) I guess I'll have to make one of the coaster trips there next year if there is one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RubenTheys Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 The area itself looks already so nice, except for those 'smooth' buildings. I can't wait until that big wooden horse joins the area. It would make the coaster twice as photogenic as it's now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
