I'd actually say the theming on Toutatis looks quite superior in my opinion! Although I'm very curious as to what the indoor queue/station at GCE will look like.

If Vekoma stopped putting vest restraints on everything I might actually be excited by that layout!

I hope it's just "Intimidator" with the 'The' prefix. Sounds like a coaster made up for an episode of the Simpsons or something, a bit cringe if you ask me.

Unbothered queen, we love to see it <3

Don't get me wrong, I don't think this will be the best thing ever, but "doesn't look great"... ? :oops: I think if the pacing is on point, this could flow so so well. I wish it had a few more elements after the stall but I really think what's there looks quite fun indeed, a good variety of...

Outerbank airtime hill continues to go up, looks like it has enough curve on it to give some floater at least. Photos appear to be taken by Julian_EP over on the Coasterfriends forum.

Scorpion Express themed to literal junk. Croc Drop is plonked in decaying ruins. I could go on, plus most of the park generally looks like it has been decaying for decades (which is sort of has lmao) Every building for Wickerman is painted to look rotten/decaying too?

And just like that, the dive loop and the turn entering it is done! Phots by @bad.goblin on Instagram

Yeah I imagine it'll run at a similar pace to Toutatis/Patheon's first inversions tbf, which still means hang time! Sorry if this has already been mentioned/asked a hundred times... Is the only opening info we have that it'll open in "summer"? Planning to visit in mid/late May :/

Exciting times! Hopefully whatever they're planning is ready for the start of the season as I'll be there on the 3rd and 4th of April. I'll be happy with simply more rock work tbh as I didn't like how you could see the back of the Berlin buildings from there.

A user by the name of GeorgeT on the coasterfriends.de forum has posted photos of the dive loop which has now been mostly completed. I imagine the top hat can be topped off once it's in fully. Source...

Work on the details for the hydroelectric plant facade has begun. Source: https://www.instagram.com/epf4ever/ The exit of the top hat is in, as well as supports for the entry, as the dive loop before the turntable. Source: https://www.instagram.com/bad.goblin/ And from an Instagram reel...

Looks fantastic, quite a way to go though it seems. I'm planning to visit in early June although I'm concerned as the website just says "spring 2023"...

Some images taken by user Tobsk@coaster on the Coasterfriends.de forum showing what I believe is the twisted hill before the dive loop, and the airtime hill after the top hat.

Ugh, this coaster is going to be fab isn't it

I guess because of the longer trains, perhaps? Or maybe the vertical launch/half loop combo might be the reasoning and will the model's USP?

Given the sponsorship, I'm assuming riders will be charged in the gift shop if they return a lightcycle with superficial damage?

Hmmm interesting. Do we think the ride will receive new vehicles, as the current ones will have awkward empty gun slots on them?

Haven't been on either although I think they're so different that it's a tough one to even compare. Everest's theming seems so much more detailed and thorough, at least from what I've seen, but the actual coaster of Hagrid's looks much better. I feel the latter needs it's trees to grow in fully...

Is it me or are there a lot of dead spots? Pacing seemed a bit off but might just be the POV. Either way, looks a bit meh but glad it's finally (sort of) open.
