But, I'm pumped to see the MODs/MOCs people come up with!
To travel, or not to travel...
Looks like it also uses a Brickheadz pair of glasses.
This is going to be a definite buy for me at some point. Heaven knows where I'll put it, but that's a minor concern. ;-)
It will be interesting how they have incorporated this as part of the mechanism to get coaster up the incline (and with the power functions). If you look closely you can see some technic cogs close to the first wheel, continuing from the top of the rollercoaster. Its possible that there is another long technic axle (black) continuing from there to the other 2 wheels (there are definitely some more cogs and technic assemblies around the wheels at the top).
Extra features with Lego Boost.
As I suspected there are 3 tyres at the top which likely help give the momentum to the coaster before the first descent.
Okay I have seen video's of MOCs in the past with custom non-Lego Lego compatible elements that dwarf it and also included a looping, but as an official Lego set it looks pretty epic to me. Though next to its price, its footprint is also huge, and I have no idea where to put that set. Still, I would love to own it.
Btw that minifig that is about to puke is hilarious.
So excited!!
But wow, so looking forward to this set - been looking forward to it for about the past 20 years ever since seeing the K'nex one in toy shop windows! The price isn't too eye-watering to me - I was expecting £250 to £300. Just got to do some saving now!
I really dig the new Coaster as well as the new Pirates 3-in-1. However, I simply don't have the cubic footage for this one, and if it were between this or several modulars, I'd go with the modulars. I suppose I could replace my old Century Skyway with this but then Brickadelphia would lose its airport. Unfortunately, there's no good way to make it smaller - even the 3-in-1 has a decent-sized footprint. And honestly, I think I prefer the 3-in-1...not to take anything away from this as it's suitably bulky, but if the Wildwood Boardwalk ride was what Lego was going for with the Pirate one, I think they totally nailed it. Still, I'm looking forward to seeing it built next time I go visit my old coworkers at Lego.
