Alton Towers | Wicker Man | GCI Wood

LOOK AT ITS ****ING CHIN.

Apparently it's a scaled down version of what the top will be. Maybe it's for a mini version in the queue or something.

The queue line needs to be Christopher Lee and Britt Ekland with pitchforks, pushing customers to their inevitable let-down.

Now that's a chin.

 

[Sandman]

It's a chin off!

And back to you!

The awkward moment comparing people's chins is more interesting than this entire project.

Well hold on now...

If it's being suggested that this is only a small version of the final statue, that means there's an even bigger, more majestic chin yet to come. That's certainly pretty interesting to me.

Now I can't help but think the train will drive into the open chin of a giant Wickerman...
Or will it be up the nose and through the ears?

Theme park opening date for next year has been confirmed as 17 March.
I wonder if it's safe to assume the ride will be ready or if we'll get a repeat performance of Smiler etc.

GCI are pretty reliable with their ride constructs though right? Seeing as this is just a run of the mill ride, there should be no reason they can’t have it open.

The entire structure is basically up and just needs to be tracked. Going into the off season it’s mainly the electronics that need to be installed so there should mean it is finished early and they have more time to fully theme and test it.

Pretty sure I saw this as an intro video to a death metal band years ago....

 

[Will]

I'd like to think the hooded figures are an homage to the classic Nemesis promo from all those years ago, certainly what it reminded me of.

The rest looks like a trailer for a really **** horror film.

Nice shot of the woodlice though.
