As far as I’m concerned, anthropomorphic mice have 4 key features: Big ears, snout, chubby cheeks and buck teeth. Ed and Edda now only have the former two…

The third train has now been delivered. You'd hope it can soft open on three trains when the season starts. From: https://x.com/quentin_lbl/status/1762513852774731818?s=20

If you’re looking to tag another park onto the trip, I’d personally opt for Tripsdrill over Phantasialand. Phantasialand is the better park, of course - but Tripsdrill is much closer, very charming and one day would be plenty there. It just feels like a more appropriate excursion from a huge...

I did exactly this as my first solo trip last September, so I hope I can be somewhat useful. I found the cheapest accommodation was an AirBnB in Brühl. I know there’s issues with AirBnB but for a solo traveller it often works out as very cheap. I paid ~€90 for three nights. I was pleasantly...

I rode on Thursday. It’s a lot of fun. From a force-only perspective, I’d say it’s definitely better that Taron - with two/three violent airtime moments, good positives on all three launches and a really great prolonged hangtime moment (which is taken quite slowly, so it rides very differently...

Apologies for clogging up this thread with trip planning questions, but does anyone know of any ticket discounts/deals? The website suggests that there are promo-codes available, and I don’t want to pay more than I have to!

The sample materials are shown here, courtesy of Attraction Source. The cutouts on the right look rather hieroglyph-y... From: https://twitter.com/AttractionSc/status/1654226220827934721?s=20

Oh yes! Only initial concern is that MCBR ruining any momentum but I assume it increases Voltron’s capacity significantly. I love the music too; although it may be just a royalty free temp track. (I hope not!)

Another vote for The Flying Dutchman here. Not only is it well themed, got great music and has an interesting winding layout, but features exemplary storytelling. The conventional method might be to end the queue line with a heap of exposition (see most queues ever). The Flying Dutchman...

I had no idea that the second launch even existed! Getting launched into a very flat helix is very peculiar - as is pretty much everything else about this.

Spring opening confirmed! From: https://twitter.com/parquewarner/status/1621479225378078721?s=46&t=_xiHSflSSO1Fb0EN-YQnJQ

The Flying Dutchman’s water curtain will be replaced with a new scene on April 1st. The new scene will use physical props and effects to take guests through a boat cemetery. Very pleased to hear about this change - I’ve never found the water curtain to be very reliable.

I’m not aware of any with this double spine style. I’d guess this track style will only be a thing in areas where there are more extreme positive G forces. Dynamite at Freizeitpark Plohn features a thicker spine at times - the bottom of the loop for example. Because the Stryker will have...

Partial Gravity Group retrack just confirmed by Oakwood. Will be 40% of the ride’s layout including the first 2 drops.

I absolutely agree. Actually preferred both Droomvlucht and Fata Morgana to Symbolica. It feels so predictable and orchestrated. Of course it is - but it’s the magic of some dark rides to make carefully planned moments/scenes feel wild and exciting. Like many others, I haven’t ridden Mystic...

Does anyone have any intel regarding when this will open? I’m looking into a Madrid trip and don’t want to miss this!

I can really see this going mega-viral in one of those minute-long Food Insider type Facebook videos. I’d love to try it - I’ll start saving up now!

This is insane. May be tough to get lots of re-rides in.

I've just returned from a fantastic first trip to Phantasialand, and wanted to share some thoughts: The quality and quantity of theming across the park is the best I've ever seen. I was particularly impressed by how the transitions between lands were dealt with. Everything is so well...

I have just booked for two days at Phantasialand in September. Is there any pattern to when Mystery Castle becomes Misery Castle? Or is it just luck?!
