Kerfuffle Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Re-Themed, Storm In A Teacup to Angry Birds, Merlin like to re-theme a ride and call it new, like new for 2014 Scorpion Express. I reckon you may have a point - Thorpe WERE playing the ABL soundtrack in the teacups on the last day of the season after all... If they do retheme it, I really do hope it's Bad Piggies orientated!

J.S217 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 I reckon its something to do with a snake or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt 236 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Surely it's a retheme of something (as opposed to a proper new ride) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.S217 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 I have a feeling a sealife or something with a bite hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EC! Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Maybe a flying fish shark or snake retheme maybe? I doubt it but its a suggestion I have seen on other forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshC. Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 I doubt it'll be a Flying Fish retheme as we saw a photo of it testing in the snow last week, and it's also opening for February half term. That Vine really doesn't give enough away to be able to have any concrete ideas. At this stage though, my guesses would be: -Retheme of Mr Monkey (though that seems doubtful, especially as I think some closed season pictures have shown the ride with all of its original theming still?) -Sealife centre? A small could be possible.. And they could probably transform the Marquee or part of the Dome into a suitable area. Seems doubtful as well. -Teacups retheme into something Angry Birds. It's something that has always made sense to do, though that Vine doesn't suggest that in any way... -Work to Neptune's Kingdom / beach / dome area. That's something they can do cheaply, secretly and with no planning permission. Could quite easily theme it to sharks and add a couple of sideshows or something (which I personally think is most likely). But yeah, could be anything at the moment, what a shocker!

HermanTheGerman Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 I'm fairly sure it will have something to do with the resort side of things though. Perhaps the dome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 It could be something small on the Fungle Safari site, which they were clearing up at the end of last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPJames Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Thorpe reach out to what the GP want every year; a new investment to the park year upon year and thorpe have fulfilled this request for a long time now. I said I would be particularly suprised if thorpe didn't advertise something new for 2015, as it is a fundamental factor in their business plan to expand the park and advertise new attractions every season. I don't have the foggiest of what it is going to be yet, however I am already excited. Whatever it is, it's more than most people were expecting so I'm likely to be happy with it whatever scale it's on. Roll on 2015. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroDan Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 The days when Thorpe Park added high quality additions on smaller/medium years is clearly over. With 2010, 2011, 2013 and 2014 all being pretty low-quality investments, I don't really have much hope for anything worthwhile here. I haven't posted on this forum for a while because, well, quite frankly, Thorpe park just seemed to have dried up of direction or ideas and only do anything worth discussing once every 4 years!

Will Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Looked like a swimming baby shark? It looked like that - a baby (rocking with the hands) + something swimming. They might be building a shark enclosure to coincide with the hotel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshC. Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 A square toilet? Seriously though; agree with Ryan that it could be some sort of pool though. I'm placing my money on something happening to Neptune's Kingdom and/or the Dome. Matt 236 and Kerfuffle 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
