New trains would actually make the back rows accessible without requiring an in depth knowledge of yoga and attempting to keep blood flowing to squished legs... Plus would certainly make the lives of platformers easier... Can't imagine lifting those restraints aren't helping towards preventing any long term back problems...

Imagine doing an AHS maze and not featuring two of the best series of it (the other being Roanoke)...

Cos this shows the lack of direction at the park? A full on scare attraction? At a park not exactly with the market for one? At one where story driven spooky (NOT SCARY) attractions are more suited?

I thought the new entrance wasn't due for next year, could be wrong though... That's some distances between those parks though...

I'm trying to think of other B&M Inverts that could place in that list, and it's quite a struggle... I'd presume Alpengeist would, but Great Bear certainly wouldn't...

Lol the new maze being a paid extra... Well done lads...

Imagine a world without clones though, only three SLCs to endure!

8 people per train at a Six Flags park?

Even Andy Hine can't be THAT excited over a second hand Pinfari...

Fun Fact: The boat ride around the lake used to be FOURTY-FIVE MINUTES long... This has not changed my opinion of this place, compared to the well-run and well-presented Nigloland so not far away, this is a poor RCT beginner level park...

I'm still amazed that's the OFFICIAL image more than anything... Maybe Merlin told Microsoft they'd go to Apple if they killed off Paint?

Only delayed by... a year? Means I have to visit now

I presume these badges are much, MUCH cheaper to make than the Disney ones... It's weird that they sell both types of badges (I.e. pins AND pop) though, guess kids prefer the cheap plastic ones and us lot with more money than sense like the proper ones?

If that's official artwork/advertising then things are worse than we think... Someone print screen it please? I want to see the exact post (and I can't do that because at work and not on FB)...

Like balls is Chessington getting something akin to that, it's such an obvious fake (purely because the image isn't over-imposed to buggery like anything Merlin)... Like, LOOK AT THE CAUTION SIGN!

There in lies the issue, cred running parks that don't necessarily warrant cred running (Belleweird has a decent number of zoo enclosures for example), Plopsa is a harder one but I mostly enjoy the atmosphere and randomly finding the Forest of Plop (another must ride)... Horses for courses, I've cred run a fair amount of parks, but I wouldn't look at places like the parks you visited as ideal ones for such a venture...

I've never honestly had any issues with Plopsaland (or the others), sure the operations are nothing special, but they're at least of a standard... More fool you for trying to do such parks in a day really, whilst I've never really spent a full day at Plopsa (and the only time I have was due to a morning tour/talk of EVERYTHING down to the uniform drop) it still warrants far more attention than as a cred run...

This is a brand new type of Flyer (unconfirmed) from Vekoma, they've had test track set up in Vlodrop for a while, I THINK they were 4 across seating... The main question lies with how the loading process will occur... I always forget this is opening next year too...

TIL that VAir doesn't have a front row queue...

Urgh, your disinterest in high quality shows disappoints me... The Tigger show basically is like any other animal show, person in enclosure making them do tricks... The only difference is the fear/excitement prospect that he could be ripped limb from limb at any possible moment... It's pure car crash stuff...

But Tidal Wave is in a 1960s American themed area, ergo they are cannot be the same church... Completely illogical jump to conclusions!

There's an Afterburner at a fair near me that's in operation, maybe it is a difference in terms of... something in the models...

Did you only do half a day at Asterix? That feels... poorly organised... Missed out on the fab shows and the silly indoor Victorian area... Ton of Air was very rough the other year, perhaps it needs a retracking because it is a fab coaster when it can be; Oz'Iris is just fun as well, and that queueline is Goudrix is seemingly starting to get more stature now in Europe as "actually not awful", which is good to see, wonder what new trains would do to it? Parc Saint Paul is weird, the tiger show is TERRIFYING, and the PAX creds are ridiculous...

Can we moan that the church still has SUCH a missed opportunity in terms of actually creating an atmosphere? The 'story' for Swarm, much like most things done by Merlin, is incredibly half baked and full of numerous concepts and ideas each vying for attention... Rather than a sense of consistency...

I honestly can't remember my one go on a SkyCoaster, but my word the SCAD Tower at Tivoli Friheden was one of the most exciting thrills I've ever done...
