I'm personally way more excited about this than I am Kingda Ka. The 3 new coasters (in the U.S.) that I'm most looking forward to for next year are this, Hydra, and Silver Bullett. Then there's Turbulence.
Not as many coasters as in previous years, but we're getting some really high quality stuff! So far, I count less than 5 clones being installed next year, and 2 clones are still brand new designs, just that there are 2 insallations of the coaster in different countries.
The golden age may be on the downward slope, but it ain't over yet!
