K'nex has done it better than ever

Knex has a new coaster and it will be released 8/1/01. This new coaster is nothing like its Grandfather, it features a Teardrop loop unlike the last coaster by K'nex. This coaster is wicked and looks just like a real coaster would. The coaster style is a B&M and features a twisting drop like on Iron Wolf or Viper@SFKK. The coaster design allows a Dive loop, corkscrew, teardop loop, and a cobra roll. Also this ride has a three wheel design and the train is pre-built. Another thing is that the train has real scream voices in the train so it really sounds like a real coaster. The coaster is only 89.00 on Amazon for pre order. Cant wait for this one. Also this coaster is 100% percent more easier to build than the last one. Plus it comes with its own motor for the chain lift.

looks fun sounds fun cool loop but im still trying to get the first one out of my room! ugh will it be as hard to build as the first one? im not ganan buy it as much as i do becuase those lil plastic pecies really do a number on ur fingers when you have to break them in i went to school the next day and couldent hold my pen!

The whole design is different. Those little things are are out. The track pieces look just like those on a real B&M. Go to Amazon.com and check out the pictures. Its so simple. Plus the coaster trains look juss like the ones on Drachen Fire. This coasters simple design take up about a quarter of the first set pieces.

I think the track looks more Arrow-ish...

Welcome to Six Flags Great America, home of the fastlane and delay-ja vu! We have now officially been deemed the world-wide wait!

In this picture, it looks like Arrow's 4-D track!

I thought it would be B&M because only B&M trains have wheels that run on the outside??

Reminds me of Intamin the most, like the 4 rail box on Millennium Force and V2.

So, you don't have to build it like the picture, you can build any design you want... Right?

I think the design comes with a "Junior" type of coaster, or, at least an alternative design.

Amazon must have a delay... I ordered mine from www.constructiontoys.com and they're expecting them next week.

I may need to buy that thing just for the lift mechanism...I need one for my coaster model.

I think the old one is better.

They sale them at toys.r.us for under $20 or $30

oh yea and i forgot to say it looks 101%easyer to build then the first one! the way it looks i'll have it up in 2days flat only working on it maybe 3hrs out the days. but the first one took me from the end of SFgadv season in oct to about the middel of march. just becuase i gave up half way trou but then got bored and went back to it.

I think the Trampoline Tower and the Big Ball Factory look a lot more interesting. Reminds me a lot of the Spacewarp sets from the olden days.

The new one's colors suck, and the serpents head at the top make it look childish.

MrMightyMouse, they sell the lifts for just $20 or $30?

If that is your case than there are 2 things to do.
#1) Paint it
#2) Take off the snake head
