  1. I like Heide, but it irritates me how awful the park has become after tussauds bought it - it's got three very clear phases. The original owner phase (with beautiful rapids and mine train for example), tussauds era (with awful Rita clone) then Merlin (slightly themed but cheaply done - the entire area around flug has pathways and an old play area half demolished and leading into the ride areas. Looks awful.

  2. Argh you're such a miserable git when it comes to this park or the rides. Poor Bobbhan :(.

     

    Flug sounds to have changed since I rode - the addition of SRQ and Front Row Queue. When I went it was queue to the building which split into 2 lanes (left and right) where a batcher then let 10 of you in each side. The third queue was for Qbot (which wasn't operating). Simple and very very smoothly run.

     

    The ride itself judders to hell and also something I didn't enjoy... there's nowhere which feels great... the front row feels like it's being held back constantly and the back row is just juddery judderyness. However it looks visually stunning and I did repeat ride on every seat just to try and see if there was a non-juddery side (there isn't).

     

    Park does seem to have budgets cut but its really nicely presented. Looks busy on your day though, colossos out the entrance!!

  3. Interesting to read this after we know they're targetting families now - has your viewpoint changed since?

    I believe it'll always be for the older families, those that can enjoy the majority of attractions, however you need more rest rides - those which you can relax on, those typically which have been removed in recent years. A few of those to balance out those hardcore thrillseekers and those which aren't quite ready yet!
