    Vekoma Stingray? Yes please... Cheap package deal if you go with one company too... Whether this gets built is another thing all together...
  2. Benin replied to Dan9's topic in UK Attractions
    Some things ALWAYS look better after some natural weathering... Gothic themed rides are one of those...
  3. Repainting an unused archway and replacing s rotten wood queue does not fix any of the real issues at Chessie atm though... The park needs something new and major desperately ride wise, it's slowly losing the ability to trade off the nostalgia factor with the decline currently being experienced...
  4. Such a corporate response... "We're closing rides for your benefit, honest guv"

    Now we need the following: - The entrance to be used properly once again - The park to be doing stuff like this on a regular basis, not when it's deemed unsafe When that starts happening, I'll be happy...
  6. They could (and probably should) just literally be refencing the queueline (assuming the mean the cattlepen has vanished)... They're not exactly a reliable source...

    Force Awakens is pretty damn amazing... Is it perfect? No, but it's full of everything the originals had in spades plus lots on top... 2017 is a long way away...
  8. People on here think this is a better looking project than Taron... Irrespective of the quality, it does mean people here will visit it... Even if it's just mirrors and a simulator...
  9. Benin replied to Benin's topic in Stuff
    When you said 'Room', I was hoping you meant 'The Room'... I am disappoint...
  10. I am really seeing people thinking that hypnosis would be a viable concept? It really is off season... The baby Jesus would be weeping...
  11. Derren Brown the ride better than Taron? [/benderlaughing.gif]
  12. Merlin weren't involved in the Bubbles retheme... We can blame them for a lot, but nothing prior to 2007 please...
  13. Benin replied to NickD's topic in UK Attractions
    With the late approval of the plans, Ghost is never going to be ready for 2016... I'd be extremely surprised if it did open...
  14. Isn't it up for sale because the company were in administration? Like, place owned by administrators put up for sale isn't news...
  15. That's gonna make things burdenous if closed for the cred construction...
  16. From what I judged it's comparing original artwork to new look stuff... Also two coasters in that mess is utterly amazing... And required for the younger visitors tbh... Great work from the park to bring such an addition...
  17. ^Sounds like Thirteen's opening day to me... Who knows, maybe this will have the same situation where after a few years it'll be a midcard attraction... Hopefully that rather than end up being closed due to cuts...
  18. At least JoshC got my humour...
  19. Has Nick Thompson said what's happening to BPB?
  20. Opens 1st July next year if anyone is planning a visit...
  21. No, it'll be a simulator AND a mirror maze... A lot of negativity stems from Merlins record I say, plus the whole raised expectations of this being the "future of theme park rides"... I doubt you'd get that for £30/35 million...
  22. Plopsa, having already got Anubis - the ride and the even better named Supersplash really know how to sell their IPs...
  23. Also shipping costs need to be considered and will raise the price of any UK based B&M (and other manufacturers)...
  24. Benin replied to Phyciodes's topic in The Real World
    A stabbing in London? Now there's something rare... One incident does not a terrorist attack make, just because the person was shouting "For Syria"... Allows for a lot of leaping and "Told you sos" by various groups... I'm probably just completely non-plussed by a stabbing is all... Too much Croydon Guardian when growing up...
  25. Then again, you always get dumb people sharing THOSE videos which are like "THIS RIDE IS INSANE" and it ends up being bloody Talocan...
