yung uwu - Surrounded by blight

To be honest, not much thought put into it, I just started building without any idea and just kept going.

In the end you could say, the theme revolves around a blight spread by that purple tree on top of the waterfall and it claimed most of the land except the tiny area around the drop tower.

SpiLz - Gentle Mountain Tour

A quaint little Christmas village rife with festive cheer. At first glance, everything seems to be just another celebration. But, upon closer inspection, you will find the entire area overrun with tiny mischievous snowmen. Are the gnomes behind this? They are getting into everything! 

Gordon Bombay (Ronny Salerno) - Top Gun: The Jet Coaster

It’s 2004 and there’s good news and bad news for your local Paramount Park.

The good news: you’re getting a new ride!

The bad news: it’s a Vekoma SLC.

To make up for not spending the cash on a B&M invert, Paramount Parks will theme the ride to one of the few movies in their catalog that…

A) doesn’t completely suck

and

B) they actually have the theme park rights to. 

Don’t get too excited, though, cause the rides’s special effects will only be maintained for three seasons at most. 

Speaking of special effects: guests begin their experience by entering into a Naval Air Station where they begin queuing. Above them: their fellow pilots soar in either the red (Maverick) or blue (Iceman) trains/fighter jets. As guests walk by a volleyball net and motorcycle—the sounds of explosions and Kenny Loggins’ hit song ‘Playin’ with the Boys’ can be heard in the distance. Upon entering the control tower, guests are treated to displays and more special effects, especially as trains pass closely overhead to “buzz the tower.” Upon exiting, they head over to the “dock of the bay” to board an aircraft carrier where smoke, light, and flame effects encompass their senses. After “taking off” up the lift hill, these new pilots will encounter explosions and  blasts of fire as their aircraft leave a “wake effect” on the water all before the take out the enemy’s Mig-28 fighter jet. It’s not just a Vekoma SLC, it’s another installation of Paramount Parks’ answer to “Batman: The Ride” —“Top Gun: The Jet Coaster” (the name that will be on merchandise, but not on the actual park map). 

Guests then exit through gift shop and can walk around the plaza over to the bar where 80s hits and cold drinks will help them remember even more Top Gun references.

RonnieLand - Meteor Crater Amusement Park

After years of being a natural wonder in Arizona, the Meteor Crater started to lose attendance. In a last gasp to save the attraction, and eccentric millionaire Shelley Ronman donated a brand new roller coaster and spearheaded an upgrade hoping to turn Meteor Crater into a world class attraction. 

The transition is still in progress, some of the older infrastructure doesn’t match the new style, but they are hoping this season will allow them to continue to grow in the upcoming years.

Vuurkip - THE FINALS

This map is based on the video game THE FINALS. This is a game about a virtual game show in the far future where contestants compete for cash with all kinds of weird tools on virtual enviroments. one of those is skyway stadium which is what this diorama is based on. That map features diorama's of elements from 2 other maps mainl Seoul and Monaco. This is reflected in my own diorama as one side is monaco and the other Seoul. The story of the ride is that you put in a cash box in the machine at the station. After that you try to defend it by flying all over the map via ziplines and slams before entering the station just in time for it to complete. giving your team the victory. 

Redfield - Plunder Pirates

In the lively port of Barracuda Bay, adventurous thrill-seekers board the Galleon of Fortune, a roller coaster set on a quest for treasure. Launching from port, the crew plunges through Anchor Reef where sunken jewels and gleaming doubloons awaited, before twisting towards the imposing Eldorado Fortress, heavily guarded by the ruthless Imperial Guards. Soar through a hidden entry and past the watchful eyes of the guards. Finally, sneak into the hidden treasure vault, basking in the golden glow of riches before arriving back into Barracuda Bay, each rider clutching an iridescent coin and forever cherishing the spirit of piracy and adventure that filled the salty air.
