Val-E Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 First photos have leaked so I guess this will indeed be one of the May early access sets. Bad news is PF seem to be an extra cost option as there is a manual winding mechanism at the front. Official press release tomorrow at 15h CET? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandyHand Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 It's quite a large set from the looks of it! Taller than the Ferris Wheel as far as I can estimate from the one leaked picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taller than the Ferris Wheel as far as I can estimate from the one leaked picture. Yeah, it looks to be quite big. Going to need to purchase more Power Functions motors. Not totally sure about the color scheme, but will wait until better pictures to form a better opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazuli16 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I'm torn. It looks impressive, but I can't imagine the build being enjoyable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Height Wise, looks likt it might be right at the FW height, I don.t see it being larger than the curve at the top of the hill. It is definitely a longer set horizontally.

Agreed, but the hopefully the playability is going to be pretty good. I am concerned that the coaster train will not make it around the track by gravity alone.

exciter1 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Hopefully it will be a 3 in 1, with multiple track layouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My goal is to put Power Functions on the cranks to make it fully automated. I'm sure it's set up like the Ferris Wheel and Carousel in that you can simply plug and play where the crank exists. Roller Coaster appears to have multiple cranks, however, so it will be a little more complicated possibly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just add ALL THE POWER FUNCTIONS!!!!! and relive RCT days of designing a death coaster and sending your patrons to a fiery death. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supergman Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Having just turned 40, with about 1,000 sets that I don't know how to get rid of, LEGO always pulls me back. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickLegacy Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 This explains why all the hobbyists were trying to dump their Cyclones at the last two Toy / LEGO conventions I attended. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pic of the full thing has leaked too so you get a couple of hot dog stands as well and at least 10 minifigs.

lazuli16 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 the pink beehive as cotton candy is a great use of that part. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzy_bricks Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I'm a little surprised they didn't use some truss pieces rather than all the 2x2 round bricks. No PF really isn't a surprise. 35 minutes ago, lazuli16 said: the pink beehive as cotton candy is a great use of that part. Is that the same part? I thought it was, but the wider shot looks a little different. Probably just using another part with the beehive that I'm not aware of.

Alpinemaps Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 In life, you sometimes look backward at the frivolous things you spent money on, and wonder “why did I do that?” (Hello, 1990s comic books)The amount of hours I spent (wasted) sitting there playing RCT or SimCity is incalculable. Before kids, I remember my wife and I coming home work, going into our office, sitting down on our two computers and building away for 5+ hours at a time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
