What's wrong with those colours, I think they look great. Well I am a sucker for anything lime green <3.

Now that looks fun! Would prefer some different colours as well.

Re: Romon World | "Unknown" | MS Launched X-Car
Can you elaborate, please? I haven't been on it, that's why I am asking. The layout looks very compact and the number of twists/inversions in such amount of land is amazing. Doesn't it track well? Does the launch suck?

Re: Romon World | "Unknown" | MS Launched X-Car
^ The launch was ok, but nothing special. You can't really fault it since it's not launching to any great height though, so it clearly can't be particularly fast.
For a brand new coaster, I found that it rattled around the track quite a lot. It's not "rough" exactly, but it certainly didn't feel like a new ride. I just found it to be overall quite uncomfortable; the restraints actually hurt a bit, which I haven't found on any other X Car other than G-Force. I'm assuming the cars are the same for all of them, so it must be something to do with the layout that caused this.
It is impressive that they've fit so much into the space, but the ride just did nothing for me to be honest. I think I was just expecting too much, since I really liked Formule X and Shock. Obviously, Shock is a huge coaster, so it's not a fair comparison, but Formule X is very similar in size and I much preferred it to Freischutz.
I rerode Shock numerous times. I happily queued for 10-15 minutes each time for five rides on Formule X. I only rode Freischutz twice, even though it was walk-on all day and I was stuck for hours at the park, waiting for a bus, with little else to do.

Re: Romon World | "Unknown" | MS Launched X-Car
There are rumours on Chinese forums that this won't be the only coaster. there will be an Indoor Intamin looper in the style of Supersonic Odyssey to go with it.
If true it's not a bad line up for a mall park.

I think I'm one of the only people around who's ridden Supersonic Odyssey, not sure though. But in all honesty, it's a bit boring. It looks really cool, yes, but is too short and doesn't really offer anything apart from the novelty of inverting past a branch of Borders. I wouldn't rate it above Colossus, for example.

Re: Romon World | "Unknown" | MS Launched X-Car
There are a few people who've ridden it. _koppen above, myself and Jake, so that makes at least four of us. I really liked it. The roll out of the station was cool, and the overbank through the "vagina" flower and into the corkscrew was excellent I thought. Much better than Colossus's corkscrews at any rate. It's short though, I'll give you that.
Anyway, I don't see how this could be like Supersonic Odyssey really, given that it was specifically designed to fit into a specific building. Yeah, it might be "indoors" and an Intamin looper, but that doesn't make it necessarily similar.

^Thanks for the update HZGarfield! The Intamin coaster look great tbh. A lot of tight twisting turns close to the ground, a vertical loop and a fairly large airtime hill :--D Looks like it'll be an awesome blitz coaster! It also looks like it'll pass both London bridge and the Towern!

^ It's a Kannonen clone but with a lifthill instead of a launch.
