Revolution Makeover

[Ollie]

Blackpool have posted some images of what the ride will look like on their Facebook page.

I think the new logo looks great but dislike how dull the one shade of grey is. Could have mixed it up a bit.

 

[Lofty]

Thank **** they've got rid of that HIDEOUS Orange and Blue.

To be honest, this is actually a good move with the colour scheme, it fits with Avalanche perfectly and due to them being right next to one another, it's a good move. It's clear that PB are putting far more thought and movement into make the park more attractive, it needed it.

I thought that too Lofty, then I saw the eye-sore of Nick land lurking behind and realised that it just wasn't working :lol:

I looks a bit too much like a bridge now, but it's more appealing than being a peeling

 

[Martyn B]

It did need this, its been looking acient for ages now.

Its the end of an era though, its been Iron Bru for ages!

 

[Ian]

I like this. When I think of the north, I think of grey, steel structures. What better tribute? It look smart and fits in perfectly.

Well done, PBB.

The Logo looks fantastic, this looks much nicer. Very modern. :--D

 

[tks]

Shouldn't this be in Newcastle?

 

[owentaylor121]

^ Why?

 

[Ian]

^ Have you been to Newcastle? It has a passing resemblance to the Tyne bridge. Tbh, go up anywhere up north of Stoke and you'll find some kind of steel structure that looks a lot like Revolution.

 

[owentaylor121]

^ I live in the north, and that made me laugh.
And now that you mentioned the Tyne bridge, I get it now.

The last photo of it looks good,

but I think it might be a little too grey. Couldn't they add a streak of blue or something?

Hallelujah, Praise the lord.

I thought the reference was pretty straight forward and totally valid. Lol.

I've ALWAYS hated the support structure, I hate the unsupported "end" to it, I know it's perfectly structurally sound (OBVIOUSLY), but it just make my OCD go mental.

 

[marc]

I like the look. It looks clean and tbh it look modern and not really old.

 

[Ben]

I don't think it looks modern, it looks positively Vicotrian.

Industrial Revolution anyone?

 

[Mysterious Sue]

Hmmm, at first I wasn't sure as it's very plain, but it's growing on me.
The ride is very mechanical (it's very simple with just the one loop, and the way it re-treads the same path each time in and out kinda puts me in mind of a piston or similar machine part). The grey suits that very well, and has been said already, it avoids clashing with Rollercoaster (I'm refusing to use the **** new advert of a name).
Hopefully, this also means that Revolution has a good few years in her yet

 

[aliman]

Industrial Revolution anyone?

No.

It's looking great now, it really needed a paint job.

 

[TP Rich]

It's better than orange and blue, but it does still look a bit like an electricity pilon, though.

 

[Colossus]

Yeah its very bridge looking, but it will look much better for it. The orange and blue looked tired. Bravo BPB.

 

[XYZ]

The new colors are OK. They're a bit boring. I would've liked if they had a darker shade of color for the track and supports.
