GladiatorFanKyle Posted June 2, 2014 Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 I was thinking in the future if it was financially avaiable then they could upgrade Rattlesnake into a Wild Mouse XXL(the one that goes to winter wonderland and travels around germany) they could rebrand it as something new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pluk Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Nor would there be any point. Was that the guy climbing the rope? He was a decent trick. TPJames 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of them have been removed (to my knowing) not sure if they have already been replaced pretty sure I heard something about it.

SteveJ Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 Yes, they have removed all the dodgy animations bar the exploding dynamite shack and (what remains of) the rope climbing man. HOWEVER, the man that used to sit at the top on a barrel has returned completely refurbished and in a new position, now looking even more frightening in a stack of dynamite. The legs in the barrel have also returned in a new position. Perhaps the sleeping Mexicans will come back soon as well.

pognoi Posted June 5, 2014 Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 I don't much like the new voice of the mexican before the lift hill. The old one sounded kinda excited, but this new one sounds like he's laying in a chair on a sunbed relaxing, or sounds like he's, uh, yeah. A bit dodgey?

SteveJ Posted June 5, 2014 Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 No that was added around 2011. Before then it was just the "UTILITY VEHICLES APPROACHING" guy speaking really loudly over the top of himself. They'll probably change it again when they realise the newer announcement is recruiting innocent civilians to be attacked and destroyed.

HermanTheGerman Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 The current announcements for Tomb Blaster were added in 2011 (what electricBill said) and are done by Graham McGrath (Chessie's old Head of Operations). Dragon Falls' and Wild Asia's announcements are also done by him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Graham didn't do Tomb's new announcements... A ride TL did... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always giggled at this, I wonder who is trying to destroy all the civilians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldFarmerDean Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 So basically... Visiting Chessington as a group of 3, and I know you can't have 4 adults on a rattlesnake car, but can't remember whether it's only 2 or 3 adults allowed, as it will be a bit of a pain to seperate one of us completely... any info would be great.

TPJames Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 You can have 4 adults in a car as far as I'm aware, we have done it before??? Unsure about that but seems very unlikely, I'm classified as an adult by the park and 4 of us have been in a car together before. Dont know where this rule is coming from?

Fred Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 3 adult rule on Rattlesnake. Adults are big butchy blokes.. I think they class people with theme park initials as children when riding Of course, I'm joking. But yeah there's a rule but usually they ensure its proper adults on Rattle not like teens.

OldFarmerDean Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 Well when I visited a few months ago, there were 4 of us who are around 20ish none of us are big, but told we weren't allowed to ride together... Which is understandable if they got h&s rules, same with dragons fury, just at least I know we can go 3 adults when I visit next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
