Saw can still claim Worlds Steepest Free fall drop though as doesn't Mumbo use some kind of brakes/ holding brakes. Anyway I would love a B&M but merlin seem to be going for cheaper coasters and theming them relatively well.
I understand the reason for the blocks on X but I think they could at least add some theming around because it feels like an eternity sat on the brakes. If this doesn't happen I wont miss it at all but thats just my two cents.
It does seem alot faster but it only works on one of the three browsers I use which is AOL 9.0 however doesnt work on Safari or IE all theese browsers I use are on the same computer.
