Medusa42 Posted May 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 Fiesta Texas has posted clues for SFFT2020 around the park already. They usually start posting teasers in July, so this is earlier than normal. https://www.facebook.com/groups/TexasThrillSeekers/permalink/2102137293246830/ Quote BREAKING NEWS: The president of Six Flags Fiesta Texas, the great one, Jeffrey Siebert has informed TTS that #SFFT2020 clues are up around the park! Have you seen them? If you’re headed out to the park this week, be on the lookout! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFNE fan Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 I wouldn't trust that. Remember this picture by Jeffry Seber (One of the head guys for Fiesta Texas) He posted that on Social media in 2016 with a caption View Looks Good Up here 2017 is looking great. That infers that they would get a coaster. Instead they got a waterpark expansion. Also Fiesta texas gets a coaster every 3 years exactly. 2012: Iron Rattler 2015: Batman 2018: Wonder Woman So why would now be different?

Iron Rattler opened in 2013 and there isn’t a pattern for when this park receives a coaster. https://rcdb.com/4538.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFOT I think could get a modified smaller model of the Mack Powersplash & SFNE could receive a launched coaster from either S&S or Premier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medusa42 Posted May 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Based on the location of the soil borings, Six Flags America appears to be getting a Zamperla Giant Discovery. https://www.managetickets.com/mdrecApp/ticketSearchAndStatusView.jsp?enc=j6lZqRXrkxqlAwxAC%2F9LwW%2BBpZwv1B37q0z3DO6mZHW%2FVLzc8jwA2VApZhwrYMlj Here is the attached map from the above ticket.

Six flags Over Texas and New Englands both last coaster was the Joker, an S&S freespin in 2017. Also, we are about equal in terms of how good the park is. Also, Over Texas, Starting at 2001, always gets a coaster every couple of years, but also, every 10 years they get a new coaster.

SFNE fan Posted June 2, 2019 Report Share Posted June 2, 2019 Also, Six flags St. Louis has been getting bad rides ever since American Thunder in 2008. After that there only new coaster was a used boomerang. So, why would Six Flags suddenly give St. Louis a expensive coaster. https://rcdb.com/4536.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just covering up old theming which they no longer use since they dropped some theming on rides and went with generic names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The park president said they plan to add something to Magic Waters for 2020, so I doubt SFGAm will also add something to Hurricane Harbor. They have been doing a lot of painting in Kidzopolis and Camp Cartoon this year, but I still think the park will add a flat package (Giga Discovery and possibly a Mega Disk’O or Endeavour) to Southwest Territory.

Medusa42 Posted June 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 http://screamscape.com/html/six_flags_magic_mountain.htm Quote Park News - (6/20/19) It was confirmed by a few sources that the President of Six Flags Magic Mountain announced to a group of Coaster Con attendees earlier this week that the park would be keeping their Green Lantern coaster after all. The plan is to ‘retrack’ it and reopen it sometime this year. This is surprising after the park first announced they were going to reopen it in late 2018, only to change their mind and announce the ride’s permanent closure and intention to remove it in early 2019. While I haven’t had the chance to ride Green Lantern myself, the word from those who have ridden it seem to indicate that it isn’t the track that is the problem with the ride, but instead the problem lies somewhere between the trains and the restraint system being used which puts a lot of uncomfortable pressure on the human body, causing severe discomfort. Who wants to bet that the Intamin Zacspin is still leaving and "retracking" means replace with a custom S&S 4D Free Spin that is called Green Lantern? They can market "The NEW Green Lantern" for 2020. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can market "The NEW Green Lantern" for 2020. I think Magic Mountain should focus on flat rides because there collection isn't so great. I could see them adding a 400+ sky screamer, or even a flat ride package, with the Zamperla Endeavor like Supergirl at SF St. Louis. The Chance freestyle like Cyborg: Hyper Drive and Pandemonium(at the great escape). Maybe they would finally get a Larson Loop too! Also, the last time they added something to the kids area was 2014 and it was a new coaster! So, I could see them adding a smaller kids expansion, like flying scooters. All I'm saying is that I dont think magic Mountain is getting a coaster two years in a row. I know it happened before with X2 and Scream, but the park needs to fill in other gaps in there lineup besides coasters! (I say those flat rides because Six Flags has been adding those models fairly recently.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Kaiser Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Aannnd another update: Quote Park News - (6/21/19) So what is really going on with the Green Lantern coaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain? While the message that it was being saved spread like a virus through the coaster community yesterday, but as things tend to do… the message got twisted along the way. While it is true that Six Flags Magic Mountain President, Neil Thurman did mention that the coaster was going to get “retracked” or refurbished in order for it to run again… Neil did not at any time say that the Green Lantern would reopen at Six Flags Magic Mountain. Looking to get confirmation of this, I was also able to get in touch with Sue Carpenter (Communications Manager) on Thursday afternoon who absolutely re-confirmed to Screamscape that Green Lantern was “Never opening at Six Flags Magic Mountain again”. So there you have it! Nothing has changed… and if I had to guess Green Lantern will be coming down before you know it to find a new home.
