There is supposed to be a sponge bobs house along with Patricks and squid wards!

This land is looking to turn out quite good.

That's cool, I though Magic Mountain would turn into the Dora ride because it sounded like it would fit a dark ride most, but I didn't realise it was to become a water ride that is outside? That's very cool, I thought they might cut corners and just add different animatronics, so very pleased with that.

I also thought they should put a 4D cinema in Space Invader, it just made sense, and it makes more sense to open that in 2012 because it gives a reason to come back. However, it looks hideous. I hope that change it because do they really believe that exterior looks nice? In true Blackpool fashion, they're trying to make it look too 'prefessional' and less 'themed'.

Impressed with the theme on that Rugrats flume though, I'm pretty excited about next year being Blackpool's year.

They already tried that, and failed. So why bother again?

Because its actualy themed.

They may not have it as an extra charge??? Amazing as it seems, but people may use it if it's part of the wristband???

Bigger one looks interesting, that's a Coaster Dynamix track isn't it?

Not sure why Alex has posted that photo of the Bigger One model, its not going to happen for a long time, if ever! Chances are, it wont happen.

I am not so sure about the idea of a 4D cinema either but I think this time it'll actually be on the wristband unlike in 2007 when you had to pay extra.

Ha! The bigger one is back! That has well and truely made my day.

Also I was gonna say what furie just said, the other cinema had a charge, and it was in a crappy little dome so I can't imagine it being any good. They should've just kept the Black Hole as a filler attraction. It was pretty cool.

I'm sure this 4D cinema will be much nicer.

Drop tower into Krusty Krab is a winner! Going on Saturday, will be cool to see what's going on around the area.

^I thought I hadn't seen them there before when I went on Saturday, they are rather noisy teacups didn't realise they'd been moved. And Gold Mine was very busy. Like their digital countdown to Nickelodeon Land.

I suppose this goes in here, Zipper Dipper has changed it's named to Blue Flyer from the beginning of the 2011 season. Yay?

Also, Space Invade 2 has been relocated to Brean =D

Want Bradley Beaver in your living room?

Pleasure Beach, Blackpool fans will be sold on a unique opportunity to purchase a piece of history. Dozens of items from Beaver Creek, which is making way from Nickelodeon Land, and other parts of the park, are going under the hammer in a gavel-smashing charity memorabilia auction to be held in the Horseshoe on Thursday December 2nd from 12 noon, in support of the Geoffrey Thompson Memorial Fund.

Exciting lots up for grabs on the day will include cars from the Lunar Carousel, signage from around Beaver Creek, old Mr Funshine signs, pictures from inside Space Invader 2 and models from the Beaver Creek Log Flume. We’re even going to auction off chairs from inside King Cotton.

The bidding fun starts at 12 noon (doors open at 11am for viewing) in the Horseshoe in the Casino Building, Pleasure Beach, Blackpool and all are welcome. Pleasure Beach, Blackpool MD Amanda Thompson says: “This is a great opportunity for theme park enthusiasts, collectors and all our visitors to own a piece of Pleasure Beach history and raise funds for a very worthy cause.”

I wouldn't mind some Magic Mountain dolls so I could burn them.

Trouble is, this would be much cooler if it was done on the Internet. I'd fancy me a cheap little bit of Beaver Creek if I could, but a formal auction? I can't help but feel they'll get less money and publicity this way.
