CodyDL Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I know a lot of you are not fond of http://www.screamscape.com/ but Dolly sure is. They are releasing the 2012 news an hour before the public to Screamscape. There looks to be a dino egg about to hatch... could this mean a dino themed coaster?

Avatar Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Dollywood seems to be doing this with several other forums as well and not with just screamscape. The letter always comes as if it is from Dolly herself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jandyb79 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 There looks to be a dino egg about to hatch... could this mean a dino themed coaster? Would it not make more sense for it to be another Dinosaur walk-through attraction like DA? Other parks are getting one as well in 2012, so it appears...

The letter always comes as if it is from Dolly herself. I didn't know that. Screamscape is the only one I read so that explains why I only knew about SS. It makes me wonder if Dolly herself is really sending it out, probably not. There looks to be a dino egg about to hatch... could this mean a dino themed coaster?

The dino craze has just begun I guess, who knows maybe Dollywood is getting a DA and a dino themed coaster to go with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dieseltech20 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Something tells me this is anything but Dinosaurs. That is an Eagle's Egg, couple that with "The sky is not the limit" and Blue track. If this isn't something to do with a certain Bird of Prey, I will be surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaptorGuy Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Dinosaurs??? Say it ain't so, Miss Dolly! What's the deal with all this dinosaur stuff Kings Island, Cedar Point, and now maybe Dollywood? I'm sure the coaster will be fun and I will of course ride it, but this Dino stuff at these parks is getting out of hand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thekidd33 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 It's 100% not a dino egg. The coaster is confirmed to be from B&M and has long been rumored to be a wingrider with an bird/eagle theme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWBeast1039 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 And on the website, you answer a question and it gives you a little clue. My clue looked like a cropped picture of a concept drawing with blue track and beige supports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McSalsa Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 One word to describe this coaster: EPIC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ki lover Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Without a doubt, this will be the best roller coaster in the world. Puts Great America's Wing Rider to shame. Cedar Point's one in 2013 will be better than this one for sure. Licking my lips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McSalsa Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 ^ How do you know Cedar Point's will be better? Or that they are even getting a Wing Rider? There are other types of rides Cedar Point might get in 2013 (they need a modern, world-class woodie. BAD.). We have to wait until next year to see, though...

McSalsa Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 ^ I meant they either need to FIX their "Bad" one (Mean Streak), or build something new like a GCI, Intamin, or Gravity Group wooden coaster. A Wing-Rider wouldn't be a bad choice, but it would still leave that gaping hole in Cedar Point's coaster lineup. They are located in a region where coasters like Beast, Voyage, Thunderhead, and numerous other world-class wooden coasters reside and yet all they have is a fun, but small out and back wooden coaster and a lumbering, over-rough (though it seems to have improved with the recent re-tracking) giant. And to Dollywood's advantage: Cedar Point does have the beach, but a Wing Rider running through the woods, as seen here, is something they cannot duplicate. As for this being "the best coaster ever", it has a legit shot, but it must go through some serious competition to win that title: Millennium Force, Bizarro, El Toro, X2, The Voyage, our own Diamondback and Beast, and MANY others are not exactly "chumps" that will go down without a fight. And finally, I too am dissapointed with no POV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McSalsa Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Oh, guess what? I just checked Screamscape. They STILL don't have this up, and Dollywood's official site for the new ride is now online. EPIC FAIL.

McSalsa Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 I just realized something: B&M is kicking some serious (SHUT YO MOUTH!) this year. #1: See above! #2: X-Flight @ SF Great America, another excellent looking Wing-Rider for the USA. #3: Leviathan @ Canada's Wonderland, the first ever B&M Giga Coaster #4: Unnnamed but looking Kick-Butt Invert @ Parc Asterix France (thanks to Kid33 for this one!) Just amazing. How I think Intamin might be reacting: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thekidd33 Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 They have a very fun/intense looking invert going in at Parc Asterix in France as well. http://rcdb.com/9675.htm Good year for B&M! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
