Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zierer

Yeah I wasn't clear enough. That's my bad.

A little off topic I wanted to post this on comment on the picture "Is that the Vertical drop I spy?" but I didn't. Such a missed opportunity D:

I wonder if they'd delete that comment.

Now that's an Interesting question. I might just go find out. Should I post it and see if they delete it within 24 hours?
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

On a random note, I really like how the black track just glistens...we'll see how long that lasts though...hopefully at least until opening day :p
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

That's a shame, since I have always thought it had a (relatively) unique paint-job...at least for a B&M invert...kinda, haha
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

So I commented on one of BG's posts on facebook about the vertical drop, They did not delete it. I guess there either 1) not going to delete it or 2) there are just too many different ones to delete them all.
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

Uc was being sarcastic by the looks of things. Plus, we don't care.
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

The park opens up for pass holders in 4 weeks. So has anyone heard anything new?
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

According to my Platinum Pass renewal e-mail, the ride should be open for pass holder preview day.

Too bad I moved to Seattle.
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

I can't wait for more news on this ride...maybe some more pics as well.

^You moved to Seattle, eh? That's where I'm from...sadly pretty much nothing in terms of amusement parks around there though.

Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

Oh... they look... tacky...
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

I actually really like the front...the rest of it, well yeah, a bit tacky. It will probably look a little odd to see that train swerving around those turns.
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

I actually think they look really good...

That particular train probably looks tacky because it's orange. Because orange is bright and rarely used, it's become a favourite for cheap and cheerful companies to brand their **** with.

I happen to love orange though... Derp.

But yeah, I think the quality of the actual train design is pretty high tbh.
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

I'm with Joey, I quite like it. Quite different to what we usually see. I love how awesome the fake car wheels look and just the general look of the front of that car. Look forward to seeing the other colours now.
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

I like it. It works especially well because the lights will apparently work in the event building and at night.
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

Yes, definitely agree about the front car...and it may just be the picture, but the matte finish if very fitting with the older-style car. Only thing is, cars often look a little funky when elongated...great-looking front car though.
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

By the way, did anyone else notice the license plate is a nice homage to BBW?

Wow, this is better than 99% of themed trains. The Ferraris on the dueler at Ferrari Park are better, but I can't think of many others.
 
Re: Busch Gardens Williamsburg |"Verbolten"| Multi-Launch Zi

I actually have love for those trains. Even the stupid orange colour looks fab!

I want them!
