tomathy Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 I'm sorry if I am being a bit slow but what happened last night on page 10, cos it didn't sound to good! I read that the ride will have a out of the ordinary drop inside the main building that had never been done before! But it may not be right but the buildings structure does follow that theory!

Presumably to hide building work and keep secret what's going on there during Adrenalin Week and from sneaky people going through the forest I have just been on there, and I coould'nt see them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noob230 Posted November 20, 2009 Report Share Posted November 20, 2009 I just thought of something:Not only do they have to build the new coaster, re-theme Rita and Re-theme UG Land but Alton also have to re-theme the UG Land and Rita holes on Extra-Ordinary Golf.Quite a bit of work if you think about it.

If I'm correct there are only 1 or 2 Rita / UG Land themed holes, so I doubt that would put them off doing something with the area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote I wonder what they will do to ritas trains? if they do retheme rita.I can't see them spending much on new trains, I can even see them keeping the current ones, but re-painting them.

jjh123horry Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Does anyone think that Alton will paint the rest of Rita's track green, so it blends in more with the idea of 'the dark forest'. Just a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James6 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 It is more likely than not that it is going to be re-themed/ re-branded.Rita merchandise had been at very low prices for the last half of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James6 Posted December 3, 2009 Report Share Posted December 3, 2009 How do you know that it definitely won't be painted green, it's more likely than any other colours.And prices may be lowered, but Rita's was lowered substantially more.
