Incredible Hulk Coaster Refurb

[graspthesun]

I could see them moving the audio out of the tunnel and into the cars and then playing various sound effects around different aspects of the ride track, or putting it to music.

Or maybe they will be closing SFA, and incorporating that land into an extended amount of track, making the coaster longer.

Noooo. That would be a longer process than 9 months.

Doesn't hurt to wish

But I will be the first to say that track replacement is a blessing....last time I rode I came off with a headache.

It's a very unlikely wish.

Gotta remember the coaster is designed so the train makes it through the track using its own momentum. Any change to that layout could impact the train's ability to complete the track. It could be done as coaster designers are brilliant with physics, but not worth the headache, time, or money.

My predictions:

Ride Vehicles
-On board audio
-Some sort of new restraint system
-on board lighting ala Rockit

Queue
-Completely new, "realistic" theme
-Enclosed for better air conditioning '
-A preshow with Bruce Banner with Musion/Glasses less 3D
-(Random, hail mary prediction): A bust of the Hulkbuster armor in the queue

Ride
-Brand new launch tunnel sequence with new effects
-LIM launch
-(Hail Mary prediction): A new scene at the end of the ride

You mean enclose the area where you wait to disembark with a show scene?

Yes

 

[Brian G.]

Yes

Definitely a hail mary, but I like it.

With them talking about [HASHTAG]#STORY[/HASHTAG] so much in the blog post, I think it would make sense.

It would be cool if they lit the track somehow - do you guys remember the old pre-opening advertisements that mentioned Hulk's track "glowing green" at night?

Do the HULK trains still have on-board strobes? They did back in the day.

Ride
-Brand new launch tunnel sequence with new effects

I can see them adding curved LED screens to the tunnel, but I feel that would be kinda six-flagsy/vegas-ey.

 

[Disneyhead]

My guy said that they decided to not do this in 2 parts so they could do more extensive work to the queue/load platform.

As in all new queue, load platform, launch tunnel. Basically razing what is there.

This is a spot where I would not care or complain about screens at ALL, especially if it's glassless as the queue is rumored to be. That'd be a massive plus. You'd just need the lap bar restraints so people have the mobility to see the scene around them...

Hulk's interview would have gone better if he would have got his cup of coffee!!

 

[captainmoch]

I'm digging all these ideas. Gives me high hopes for MSHI's future!

 

[Cole]

Thank friggin god!!! Hulk was always one of my least favorite rides in IOA, not really for what it is but for the potential it has. Finally they're getting into that potential, really do hope they'll give it more than just the same thing but cleaner, would love a better story and for the love of god, AC in the queue!!!!

Hulk should have an end scene with him having a little party dancing with 7 of the Avengers in a little hut at the end of the ride with Thanos at the back door.

Or the end scene could be Hulk proposing to Black Widow, lol. opcorn:

or, The Hulk trashing the 7 Dwarfs Mine Coaster. He roars ,"Hulk hate puny coasters".
