THE SWARM: Speculation & Theories
I love how every style of coaster we don't have yet has suddenly become a prototype

Video Games.
Looks like 2011 is going to be an expensive year for me... I already have 5 games on my list of things to buy! Uncharted 3 Resistance 3 Brink Hunted Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim All look thoroughly brilliant; I'm particularly looking forward to Uncharted 3, Brink and Elder Scrolls V. It's been a long time since Oblivion!

THE SWARM: Speculation & Theories
I think we do know what to expect so far as it will not be a coaster from Alton moved here. It will be a new coaster, and I'm 99% sure it will be the new B&M. Discussion of this is pretty pointless imo, and I'm sure once we see plans (which presumably aren't far off now a project name has been released) this will be confirmed.

THE SWARM: Construction Updates
If done properly, this could be mind-blowingly full of awesome. Imagine Fallout 3 / New Vegas being brought to life as a coaster - wow that would be cool

I do quite a bit of modelling, and have in fact made most of the entrance area of Thorpe already. I'll give you a hand in your quest!

Double post - sorry. Looks like I got my wish!Straight drop So presumably some sort of overbanked turn will follow, or perhaps a fourth inversion in the form of a dive or immelman loop.

I'd love to have a proper look around it!Edit: Just found it on CC. Amazing job, seriously! I would just stick myself to this thing all day if we had it! 2015 anyone?

Rides that you.. like
Manta - Sea World OrlandoManta is absolutely lush. It's a fantastic layout and smooth as glass, and it helps that B&M's Flyer is probably my favourite model by my favourite manufacturer. Not only that, the surrounding rocks, waterfalls, pools and aquariums give the ride a stunningly beautiful setting to run through. True 5-star ride.Jurassic Park River Adventure - Islands Of Adventure, Universal Orlando ResortJPRA is another great all-rounder. The opening 'tour' portion is exceptional, with lush vegetation, brilliant dinosaur animatronics and mist and smell cannons as well! The added element of thrill at the end is great too, and I like the sudden change of themeing to the more industrial 'backstage' look.Pirates of the Caribbean - Magic Kingdom, WDWDo I really need to explain this one? Absolutely stunning atmosphere, fantastic fun ride. Perfect in every way.Expedition Everest - Legend of the Forbidden Mountain - Disney's Animal Kingdom, WDWWonderful coaster, combined with 5-star storytelling and themeing. Every inch of the queue is detailed, thought-out and aged to perfection. Beautiful art litters every surface. Weathered signs and posters cover the walls, and random little trinkets hang from ceilings and sit atop the shelves. Combine that with a thrilling coaster, and Disney have another winner. We won't mention the Yeti, eh?Amazing Adventures of Spiderman - Islands of Adventure, Universal Orlando ResortI love Spidy! Everyone called it the world's best dark ride before Forbidden Journey opened, and rightly so! It's a brilliant adventure from the moment you step into the building, combining a great story told through the news reports on TV with an amazing ride full of thrills, brilliant 3D film and fantastic real props and effects like the fire jets and thick green smoke.I could add a whole other list for shows, restaurants ect, but maybe I'll save it for later
