Mark9 Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 I seriously can't wait for thorpes take on the advert for this baby.As long as it doesn't start with "from the park that bought Colossus, Nemesis Inferno, Stealth and Saw: The Ride" I think I'll be pretty happy.

TraX Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 If it follows along the lines of both Raptor's and Krake, I too will be pretty happy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 ^Wouldn't be too surprised if it shared similarities with Raptor's advert, only instead of it being set in a forest, but a desolate city.Not a bad thing though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_C Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 I'm hoping that the advert is very similar to the promotional video on the mini-stite. With the helicopters etc... As long as it doesn't start with "from the park that bought Colossus, Nemesis Inferno, Stealth and Saw: The Ride" I think I'll be pretty happy.Couldnt agree more, thats sort of like one of Saws promotional videos was like I think...

tomglazed Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 I'm hoping that the advert is very similar to the promotional video on the mini-stite. With the helicopters etc...Couldnt agree more, thats sort of like one of Saws promotional videos was like I think...I don't think Saw did but Stealth definitely had the whole "from the people that brought you (insert rides here)". I don't think/would hope that Thorpe wouldn't do it for The Swarm's advert because saying "from the park that brought you Colossus, Nemesis Inferno, Saw The Ride and Stealth" is quite a mouth full and takes up a good chunk of ad time which they could spend focussing on promoting The Swarm alone.

AdamY Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Latest from the Facebook: 300 ft of chain is now installed on the lift hill. The incline loop will be finished this week, with more track arriving next week! Its going up fast!Yay! Also, I am now vindicated in calling it an inclined loop It should be interesting watching them slot the corkscrew through the loop, I did wonder if they'd do the sides of the loop then install the corkscrew, before going back to top off the loop. Evidently not! Mer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mah boi Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 How would they install the beginning of the corksrew, if they complete the inclined loop first. I thought they would leave the left side of the loop clear, then put the beginning section of the corksrew in. Anyway, I don't know anything on coaster construction, so they will have some clever technique with them. Though I am still surprised that more track is arriving. Hopefully the trains will come with the last deliveries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mah boi Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Why is it always when I make my update on my youtube page, a better picture update comes afterwards. Anyway, nice to see it's going well. Also one thing I noticed is that the foundations of the tower, seem have started production.And these look like parts of the plane to me.
