The new statue thing has horns its like a bull or a bufflo if u look at the theming plans its gonna shoot out fire or steam I bet or Im thinking gulluirvers travels (the movie story what ever it is) because why would they build enchanted forest and would fit with mutiny bay

 

[jack_s]

It's going to be named the scarecrow, and there's to be a scarecrow made out of 5 twigs.

The planning image makes it look more like horns and a snout. My guess is:

Bullseye: The Ride

 

[delta79]

The statue is going to be alan wicker,man.

 

[xRetroxCraftx]

yeah lol Im hoping that its nothing to dark and scary im a wimp lol saying that look at my profile picture of duel through the monarail xD

Bullseye: The Ride

wow lol this is totally it discussion over

 

[PeteB]

I could totally ride a Bullseye coaster.

Maybe they could bring back the broomstick coaster plans but replace brooms with darts!! Build a big dartboard like the Galactica portal. Sorted!

Hey we're building all kinds of amazing rides on this forum lately, so far we've had Ghostbusters shoot em up, Scooby Doo's Spookhouse and now Bullseye.

Pah! Who needs bloody Merlin Mundane Making, just hire us lot instead!

...and I still say TT's idea of "the washing machine" was far better than anything we got on The Smiler.

Unfortunately, two of those rides have already been built - one by Merlin just this year. Also, the Jim Bowen IP would be prohibitively expensive from an insurance point of view, given his age - so that's the end of that.

So close, so far, Peter.

This would actually be better than a Wickerman theme.

 

[xRetroxCraftx]

TT?

The bullseye IP is owned by itv plc. As it was a central tv programme

Closest would be
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scooby-Doo's_Haunted_Mansion
and


Unfortunately all dreaded "interactive" darkrides

Though I do have a certain amount of love for the Mack wildmouse Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scooby-Doo_Spooky_Coaster
Which is almost cool enough to forgive that it replaced a Gremlins dark ride.

There are/were Scooby Doo Haunted Mansion rides at all the Paramount parks. I think there is still one at Warner Madrid, as I recall? Movie World Aus (just about) have their excellent Scooby Doo dark ride/coaster hybrid.

Heide opened a Ghostbusters shoot em up two weeks ago.

Sorry, did I misunderstand?

 

[PeteB]

My god, that Ghostbusters ride is terrible! They're just shooting at crappy screens. I was thinking more along the lines of Men In Black at Universal Studios.

Likewise the Scooby Doo Haunted Mansion looks a bit.... Blackpool Pleasure Beach Ghost Train.

 

[Martin]

All I know about the Scooby Doo coaster is it was featured on an episode of The Big Lez Show and therefore it's great and we need it here.

 

[jon81uk]

To be fair an old school ghost train or haunted house is very suited to Scooby Doo.

 

[AstroDan]

Back on topic, please.

I like the idea of a duel re-theme to ghost busters or Scooby doo. It will appeal to the families and duel was terrible so it needs a lot of work in my opinnion.
