Only 2.2Gs yet it goes upside-down... I don't get this ride.

I wonder how much Mandrill Mayhem pulls.
 
On a linear ride? Wouldn't it make more sense for just a backwards row on a shuttle that goes backwards half the time anyway? No? 🤣 Huh.

While we knew from actual factory pictures this would have vests, they are also pictured in the art. This is more leaning towards a thought to what it will end up meaning for the Chessie art that doesn't show them.

Another 1.2m height so extra happy it's confirmed these rides can achieve that.
 
^ It definitely moves through the track faster than I expected, but that's probably because B&M track is so large that smaller elements look like there's much less altitude to gather speed with etcetera. Should be a fun experience for any age.
 
It's weird that they're testing the trains unthemed, no?

Then again, a B&M eith 2 inversions at a Legoland park is weird, so.... 🤷

Potentially the train shells aren't ready as they're quite bespoke, so maybe they thought better to get it tested and they're added later?

Personally, I think this looks like an awesome family coaster, and looks much faster than I thought it would be. Gives me hope for Mandrill Mayhem at Chessington!
 
Usually wing coasters tend to look slower than they are, but this looks faster for some reason.

Still, I don’t get why they wanted a family ride to have a hangtime focussed inversion at the end.
 
Thing goes way faster than I anticipated.
Looking good. Very nice "kiddy" expansion.

Edit: but If I am correct. The inversions turn the same way. Would've been better if they did this both ways.
