Port Aventura |"Shambhala"| B&M Hyper

Re: [Rumour] 2012 B&M for Port Aventura

"Themed" is a very loose term for what that ride is.

But, yeah, it's defo not WoW themed. That section's Starcraft themed. Or meant to be. Nothing in that park really resembles what it's meant to be themed after...

I personally think it's themed to this, to fit into the new Australia section they're doing...

Well, if we consider that the latest rumours say that track could be golden, everything is possible... :roll:
I personally don't believe these rumours but if they become true, I will eat my words and ride Stampida at least twice every time I visit the park :S
 
Re: [Rumour] 2012 B&M for Port Aventura

I'd LOVE it to have gold track, that would be so obscenely GROSS and audacious that it'd just be amazing <3

With black supports would look amazing ;)

I know Starry Night Ripper isn't WoW themed, I was referring to the park as a whole that has Starry Night Ripper in it (as I don't know what it is called).

Gold with Black supports? I agree with what Ben said about it.

Switching between the hideouts'...
 
Re: [Rumour] 2012 B&M for Port Aventura

This topic makes some pretty funny reading, thanks for cheering me up. :lol:

I hope there is some type of announcement soon, it's getting annoying not knowing what is going on really. We were trying to guess what it'll be during our visit there in September, the sooner we get some announcement the better!

On the subject of other rides being shown at Port Aventura, they still use the cups with the photo of Maverick on them and I have always thought it was odd that a Furius Baco shirt is sold with a photo of Colossus on it! The Baco merchandise is pretty crap, which is a shame considering it's the best coaster there!

Like we keep saying, don't expect an announcement until either very late in the Halloween Season or even past the Halloween season. They won't miss on that trick.

HA. Although I love Baco, that statement is complete, and utter, bollocks.
 
Re: [Rumour] 2012 B&M for Port Aventura

Fair point about making an announcement, makes sense.

I fail to understand which part of it you found to be utter bollocks, because they do still use cups with Maverick on them. I am going to guess you don't agree that I think Baco is the best coaster there? I'd like to say on the merchandise subject, some of it is reasonable enough, but on the whole it could be better!
 
Re: [Rumour] 2012 B&M for Port Aventura

^ Almost everyone thinks Khan is the best! :) But we all have an opinion...
 
Re: [Rumour] 2012 B&M for Port Aventura

Its an amazing B&M looper. Thats enough said for me Ive never been on a B&M looper that hasnt been amazing.
The whole issue with the merchandise is rather odd, I wonder why they dont just use photos and art from their own rides?
Surely its not that difficult, or are they just being plain lazy? :S
 
Re: [Rumour] 2012 B&M for Port Aventura

Okay, some people like Khan, some people Baco... Excellent, but what does it have to do with construction?

Back to the topic please.

I have to admit, I LOL'd at this when I saw it.

Footers anyone? Hopefully. If so, it's true that it passes DIRECTLY under Khan...
 
Re: [Rumour] 2012 B&M for Port Aventura

The new coaster will cross two times with Khan, according to rumors....
 
Re: [Rumour] 2012 B&M for Port Aventura

And I like how he's taken the pictures while upside down in the loop! :p

Hopefully this means that we'll se vertical construction soon. That's most definitely holes for fotters. So I guess we'll see supports/track arriving soon at the park :)

That sounds like an out and back layout possibly.
Hyper, anyone?
