mattkopp23 Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 Yea I’d now be shocked if it isn’t a Vekoma Super Boomerang that is yellow themed to The Flash, although it would be a nice nod if they themed it to Mr. Freeze or The Chiller. Things I’m curious about is if it will have a turntable or not, it’s exact placement in that plot of land, and if anything has to be removed for it, such as Cyborg.

Gyrotron Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 Great theme for a multi-launch ride, it would look very nice with a yellow/red color scheme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tower Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) I've heard rumblings from various places (take it with a grain of salt) that red and yellow track was spotted on a truck just outside Baltimore going North up i95. Could be something. Edited August 19, 2023 by Tower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkj3322 Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 (edited) That's quite a lot of yellow for that side of the park. Need some variety. Edited August 18, 2023 by mkj3322 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need some variety. well, boardwalk has too much red from great american scream machine & superman & given the rumors that nitro will be repainted in a black, blue & grey color for the 2024 reason given the new trains, I think its made sense to repaint nitro to the aforementioned colors so they can't make that area too much yellow (I wish they could have repaint batman back to its all black color like how batman used to look like when its first opened) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flatcover Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 They should retheme joker to riddler and retrack dark knight coaster with rmc wild moose and make it jokers funhouse Or retrack skull mountain. They had pics of it in one of the teases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had pics of it in one of the teases if they retrack skull mountain, they should bring some of the theming elements back & maybe bring back the original themed queue line (maybe move Jolly Roger to where the old rc boats used to be and maybe demolish the outdoor seating part of chop six for it) and if they retheme joker, I wanted to fit with the lakefront themed, maybe something like a ride themed to seastrom & also they can retime Harley Quinn crazy coaster back to Blackbeard lost treasure train, I mean, if they can retheme buzzard back to medusa, why not do the same thing, while they build a joker themed ride (maybe Harley Quinn themed ride if they have room) in the old chiller main element site (observatory may become something else like maybe a meet & greet location), I like to keep the dark knight coaster, look, I know people thought the dark knight theme on wild mouse is a bad idea, I like to keep the theme, maybe add the city facade like concept art for the facade had sorry for going off topic, you the one who started the whole off topic thing so lets just stick it to the 2024 speculation ok?

harry2004 Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) I don't know about you but shoutout to coliwood studios for pointing this out, there's are the flash & batman & robin symbols in the gardens: I saw the comments saying that the roller coaster we getting is themed to the chiller for nostalgia reasons & the flash could be a flat ride (maybe the return of the musik express?)

Gyrotron Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 Fiesta Texas really missed the mark on their teasers for 2024, and honestly this campaign hasn't been great either (but it's justifiable considering the whole park is being renovated). The giveaway of the ride stats happened far too early.. Jersey Devil had an awesome teaser campaign that was actually engaging and interesting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29yrswithaGApass Posted August 22, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 Maybe “1” of the five rides will be new news in 2024- a la the Log Flume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They basically slapped the exact ride stats from the Vekoma website on a tweet and called it a hint Definitely, that should have been the final teaser and the 436 could have been omitted (as the defining number with the rest being ambiguous). Does anyone know the cost of the Super Boomerang? Lech Coaster costed €12M (roughly $13M) in 2017, but also features twice the track length of this. My ballpark guess would be $15M, so I'm not understanding how this was addressed as a huge increase in Capex. Perhaps the entire GADV allocated budget was supposed to be for renovations/TLC and then this was thrown in there as an added "gift"? Ironically it'll be the best part of the new season.

Well you also have to consider that it is all but confirmed that the ferris wheel and the log flume will be getting some pretty big TLC. We also don't know if they are getting a modified version of the super boomerang, maybe they bought a model with a turntable which would make it a bit more expensive I would assume. Also, Nitro repaint seems inevitable for the upcoming year considering the trains and exit rails are blue and grey now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
