RMC Streak Photo Update - May 7, 2017

The Sandusky hair stylist way back, who reportedly cut a RMC employees hair did state; 2018. 200'. And Rail Runner (I took that with a grain of salt as he was likely the "rail runner" of new track)

I want a Sandusky hair stylist to do my hair too.

When the picture is enlarged and the contrast is adjusted, the man has a mini gatling gun on his left arm. The left arm is also appears mechanical.

His face appears to have a breathing apparatus covering the mouth and nose. However it could be nothing. The intentional distortion with the grey/white lines to mimic an old printing press make it hard to tell.

they = the rails

I though CF trademarks were, typically, for non-CP rides. Doesn't CP usually own all their trademarks directly?

It's a good catch. Cedar Point Park LLC is not the owner, as they have been for Rougarou, Valravn, Gatekeeper, Maverick, etc, etc...

Cedar Fair as the owner seems to indicate the name is for a ride of one of the other parks. Could be, though.

That wanted poster is certainly the character for the Battle of Cedar Point for the new ride.

I was wondering if they'd incorporate the game app in the lead up to the announcement. And after seeing that wanted poster, it's safe to say they are. I have a feeling that the app will be involved with the announcement day as well. Like being at the park and playing the game to win something. Something like being the first to know an hour before the announcement to the general public or free shirts or something. The possibilities are endless.

Very excited to see how this all plays out.

I think that's just hinting the price of the FastLane+ once the ride opens.

Or maybe the average wait time in minutes for the standby line.

It's the number of test runs they've completed to date. It's opening next week once it hits 1,000.

That silhouette looks more like of a Gunslinger... just saying. Just in time for The Dark Tower ;)

First off, I love the name Railblazer. Second, the name fits the Mean Streak conversion more than Hurler in my opinion. When I saw Railblazer, I immediately thought hyper coaster and 80 mph.

Railblazer...I approve...

Railblazer lends itself to a neat concept.

"They're" = outlaws taking over the train and frontier town.

Use the MCBR for some wicked cool animatronic gun fights...launch out.

Cedar Point's version of Westworld on HBO...meanwhile around the ride and in the que, use VR or smartphone AP to catch outlaws climbing on the coaster and doing various evil deeds. Winners with high scores get an exclusive ride at the end of the night.

Hyper themed. Cool for the kids who are constantly on their phones anyway.

There's a new wanted poster over by Maverick. I'll post a pic shortly.

It's already been posted by CP Maverick, unless you mean there's a second one.

As for the idea of being launched out of the MCBR, there is a turn at the end before you drop out of it. That turn is not very banked so I doubt that the ride will be able to go through that with any real speed.

It's a second poster but the same image. It's on the fence behind The Roundup. So that makes two I've found. My guess is there's more. Edit: a third one is on the old photo building of Mean Streak.

Yeah, I was disappointed to see the turn out of the MCBR was barely banked. Pretty much eliminated the possibility of flying thru there.

I am a firm believer that we will see insane lateral g's coming off the MCBR, plus a little airtime.

After getting 7 rides on Twisted Colossus over the past several days I am even more excited for this conversion. TC has earned a solid place as my number 4 steel coaster right behind Maverick. Crazy ejector air throughout the entire course. I'm hoping that the new MS will be the same with the several larger elements at the beginning added on.

I really hope this coaster doesn't drag along the second half. I'm hoping there will be speed out of the MCBR.

How about ludicrous speed?
