Hi guys. Sorry if we already have a thread like this, but my question to you is; what do you think is the best themed wooden roller coaster? Now, this is a bit of a strange one, in my opinion, as other than a couple of examples, wooden coasters don't often tend to have much theming, and I'm not entirely sure why. Here are the top 5 rides I would say are the main candidates (in no particular order):
- Wicker Man (Alton Towers) = Has the cool theming structure, a well themed queue line and an awesome pre-show. Also looks awesome in the dark:
- Wodan Timbur Coaster (Europa Park) = Has a really well-themed indoor queue line and some nice fire effects. However, there's not really a lot of on-ride theming other than the tunnels:
- Apocalypse (Six Flags Magic Mountain) = Has a couple of great pre-shows and a great queue line, a great fire effect and it did have onboard sound when it first opened:
- Joris en de Draak (Efteling) = There's not really a lot on this ride, but the queue looks to have some nice themed touches, the station looks nice and there's a cool-looking dragon animatronic that spurts out fire:
- Mystic Timbers (Kings Island) = If it wasn't for the shed, this probably wouldn't be here:
