    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Good riddance in my opinion - it was a totally deplorable addition and has stuck out like a sore thumb since the day it opened. Even if they turn it back into Amity Cove I would be happy!

    Genting SkyWorlds | Malaysia | Theme Park

    it's really unfortunate that a park has put so much faith into one supplier to create their two arguably 'signature' attractions - for them now to have gone out of business. Must be very frustrating as they aren't simple roller coasters either.

    Hong Kong Disneyland expansion 2018-2023

    I dread to think what the queue line for this will be once it opens.

    New Expansions and Additions at Walt Disney World

    They seem to love doing these big D23 events, shouting about all these amazing ideas coming, but a lot of them are either just literally that - ideas, or are many years from fruition. It's a bit like, look what we're opening - in 2029! They seem to have a habit of announcing things for the...

    Hossoland | Poland | Theme Park | 2025

    I don't think this comes as a shock. There doesn't appear to be any ride hardware on-site so I would say they're at least 18 months away.

    Six Flags Over Georgia | Kid Flash Cosmic Coaster | Skyline Attractions P'Sghetti Bowl | 2023

    I'm not sure how they ride as I've never been on one, but visually I think they look pretty funky.

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    They've only recently appointed a marketing agency to handle the marketing for Exodus, so it is likely this has been put together by the in-house team awaiting the proper professional stuff from the agency. Or this is the stuff from the creative agency and it's going to be **** 🤣...

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    I don't want to sound rude, but it's incredibly veiny *insert pun of choice here*. I think it may have been more effective if the veins weren't such a bright colour, and weren't on every surface!

    "American Heartland" Park and Resort in Oklahoma, aiming for 2026 open

    Smells like embezzlement. I'm all for it but 5 million visitors a year is a tall order!

    Genting SkyWorlds | Malaysia | Theme Park

    You've got to feel sorry for Genting Skyworlds. Arguably two of their most unique and exciting attractions (one of which looks practically finished) are now going to either sit and gather dust or have to be taken out. Part of me wonders if Dynamic Attractions will start another company as...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    I'm sure they will be marketing this hard. It's their first major investment since DBGT in 2016, so they need to make this a success. I think it's do or die - if they can't get visitor numbers up with a major new attraction, then they are in serious trouble!

    Drayton Manor | Gold Rush | Intamin Family Coaster | 2024

    I think it will be a great fit for Drayton and their new target audience. If it's well-themed with some good interactions with the terrain that can always make it feel faster too. However, I do think Shockwave can't have much life left in it, so would this be a worthy replacement? I'm not sure...

    Fuji-Q | Zokko | Intamin Multi-Launch Motorbike | 2023

    Looks a really fun coaster, although I'm not sure the backward switch section really adds anything - kinda disrupts the pace of the whole thing.

    Chessington World of Adventures planning indoor waterpark - public consultation on Wednesday 16th November

    Personally I think it looks great for Chessington. Shame there aren't more than 4 slides but overall it looks awesome. It's a genius move really, as it would make Chessington a year-round destination, as well as increase the chances of people staying overnight in their hotels.

    Hossoland | Poland | Theme Park | 2025

    Nice to see some good-quality theming, but I can't see any rides in place yet. If they're aiming for a 2024 opening, surely this should have started by now?

    SeaWorld Orlando | Penguin Trek | B&M Family Launch Coaster | 2024

    I suppose the main cost for these huge roller coasters is materials, so I assume a smaller coaster will use less material - especially if it's a family one not going 100's of feet in the air. Maybe they've realised that they can make a healthy profit on a family coaster so have thrown their...

    PortAventura | Uncharted | Intamin Multi-Dimension Coaster | 2023

    Not long to go now! In other news, from 10.07 to 11.09, people staying at: Hotel Gold River Hotel Colorado Creek Mansion De Lucy Will be able to ride Uncharted from 8am to 10am before the park opens. I'm booked for a night in Mansion Lucy in August and this has definitely made my day, as I...

    Colossus Partial Retrack (Thorpe Park)

    You do have to wonder why they are bothering with retracking at all? The ride is nowhere near as highly regarded as Nemesis or Vampire (rumoured to be getting a full retrack like Nemesis in 2024), and although I am sure people enjoy it, it's certainly not up there in people's top 10s (unless...

    PortAventura | Uncharted | Intamin Multi-Dimension Coaster | 2023

    Is it just me, or does that rock face 'face' look a bit like Angelina Jolie? Edit: Also getting Voldemort vibes too.
