I thought for a second people were referring to Wilde Maus XXL as in the stalwart of Hyde Park Winter Wonderland operated by Eberhard (I think?).

Am I right in thinking that the ride people are actually referring to is simply one of those new gen Reverchon spinning coasters with an overbank?
 
That's...... not the ride I was thinking of.
Oh, I've just realised that Tayspru said Wild Mouse XXL rather than Magic Mouse XXL which RCDB lists as coming to the park in 2025. I know that Mellors often send a coaster to HPWW for example so I was asking if Magic Mouse XXL was still sat there on the tarmac or if it had been sent out to a Christmas event. Unless you meant something entirely different...

Edit - I'm confused as to why Diogo is using the laughing emoji.

Yeah, I probably should have quoted Tayspru as well. I was a bit distracted making telly with one eye and one hand, catching up on the forum with the other, and keeping an eye on whether or not my taxi driver would get there before we went off air. 🤣
..... Wait, is that three eyes? Oh well!
 
Looking at RCDB there’s quite a few Mice passed though the park. Mellors still do take one to HPWW badged up as Ice Mountain.
This is what I was meant, it's a little hard to keep track of the various Wild Mice and Spinners that get sent to these fairs as RCDB doesn't cover the fair circuit and I believe that for example Ice Mountain at HPWW has used a couple of different Reverchon Spinners. But with regards to this MagicMouse XXL ride the RCDB entry for it has pictures dated from February this year showing it like this at the park.

So my question does anybody know if there has been any progress with it's construction, or if it had been left unbuilt, if it was intended to be used at a winter event somewhere, etc, or if has just been stored at the park like that all this time. Those Wild Mice rides go up very quickly so I wondered why Mellors weren't actually using the ride since it arrived there 10 months ago.

Edit - Forget that, I've just watched the TPWW vlog from August this year and it shows that it indeed has been constructed in place at the park seemingly ready to go so perhaps they just held back on opening it so they could promote it as a new for 2025 ride perhaps. Actually I'm suprised that RCDB haven't updated their entry for it with constructed pictures.

I seem to have had a “dud” rumour, I think it is indeed a mix up and it’s the on site spinner

It was fully built (it’s not a bigger model than usual unless they’re going to be removing the already built lift hill) but without trains when I was there for the Halloween event in September

Well the sign is ready if the ride isn’t.
