MK Villains Land Announced for Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom
- Thread starter wdwmagic
- Start date
Verkoma has been making a plethora of family suspended coasters lately. The stars may be aligning.

Or a B&M Family Invert.... Big Bad Wolf has been very successful and smooth so I'm sure other chains have been taking notice

Almost certain that Vekoma will be the one doing the suspended door coaster. I would guess it will likely be Vekoma doing the coaster here, but I'm guessing not another suspended coaster.

I'd love the S&S Axis coaster, so it could transform from standard to suspended.

My expectations on that are pretty low (not that my expectations on the actual rides are low, just low expectations on the ride systems). For the alleged dark ride, I'd imagine the ride system is probably locked in at this time and if it was something revolutionary, we'd have seen some patents by now. I feel like the same ride system as the Avengers ride at DCA is the safe bet, but I'd love to be wrong.
As for the coaster, Im expecting a relatively standard coaster with a few unique elements added in (not unlike Hagrids). I'd suggest a tilt track, drop track, and/or swing launch, but considering Universal already has coasters with those elements, I could see Disney intentionally not using those elements to avoid comparison.

But would you say they have a plethora of piñatas?

It’s Croatian for a “gagillion”

Based on what?
What is the system for the Avengers ride anyway since it changed like a million times?
Right now, Avengers seems to have the same ride system as Peter Pan’s Neverland Adventure.

Would this be the first time a US park got a clone of a ride system from Tokyo ?
The budget for Villains Land is probably through the roof so it better have ambitions attractions.

Technically the trackless dark ride was developed for Tokyo (Pooh's Hunny Hunt), then replicated at other parks around the world in the 2010s. Tokyo doesn't have that many unique ride systems, its more the rides themselves that are unique

Judging from the videos I've seen, Peter Pan's Neverland Adventure seems like another "vehicle parks in front of a giant screen and it turns into a simulator" ride. I know it's not trackless, but it sure FEELS like one.
If that's what the villains dark ride is gonna be like, I'm not very excited.

It’s Spiderman or Transformer. It actually tends to “stop” even less than those, that have more video bays in their framework.

How about WDW takes a break from coasters for awhile?

I would assume it's kinda like those rides where a POV of the ride experience looks a lot worse than actually experiencing the thing.

When coasters stop being the most popular rides in each park (other than AK) they will.
Longest average wait time in 2025:
MK: 1) Tron (70), 2) Big Thunder (53) 3) 7 Dwarf (52)
EPCOT: 1) GOTG (61)
DHS: 1) SDD (63)
AK: Everest is actually 5th out of 7
Like it or not... there still isn't enough coaster supply to meet demand.

This might be more driven by inherent capacity issues with coasters coupled with lightening lane but I get your point.
