RE: Mäch Tower

I saw the same piece heading east bound 64 towards Richmond on Friday. It was parked overnight at the Afton rest area. IMO it seemed rather long to be a base for a tower.
 
RE: Mäch Tower

Well I got a little update for you guys.

1. The structure for the new shop is complete.
2. The base for Mach Tower is also complete. Only thing thats holding it from vertical construction is the concrete base is still curing.
3.The smoking section building located by the swings is painted green and red
4. the old BBW gift shop and the bumper cars have been painted baby blue and brownish beige.

The person who told me this said that the colors actually don't look bad.
 
RE: Mäch Tower

Thanks for the update Vaughanvt. The colors sound terrible, but I suppose I'll hold off on my final judgement until I see them.

Me too thats the only disappointment ive had is the colors...I mean BABY BLUE???
 
RE: Mäch Tower

Baby blue is one of the colors in German culture, especially concerning the maypole. Just sayin'

Also, baby blue, possibly a darker shade, but still baby blue is used on the facades of many of the buildings in Oktoberfest, including the Festhaus. I don't quite understand why we're flipping out over this.

RE: Mäch Tower

A video update has been posted. The base for Mach Tower is in and the thematic poles are starting to rise around it and the new shop is nearing completion.

RE: Mäch Tower

Does the space for the cab or whatever you call it look small to anyone else?
 
RE: Mäch Tower

Quick question...aren't they building TWO buildings? They keep focusing on the pretzel shop, but supposedly there's a Bier Garden and a small shop(according to the rendering). Anybody else see what I'm talking about?

Also, these are huge structures that are going up around the base. I guess we did get our wish for a structure at the base. Yes, it will probably only feature tons of ribbons, but that is quite the theming structure.

Sorry ur right when i first heard baby blue i thought really bad light blue not like a maytower blue.
 
RE: Mäch Tower

I'm guessing you're either not a fan of the color or you're in complete awe of my awesome creativity. ;)
 
RE: Mäch Tower

I understand the blue being a color of German culture but were all of the houses and buildings in 19th Century Bavaria painted baby blue? No, I didn't think so.

Another video update has been posted...

RE: Mäch Tower

nice enclosure at the bottom. A big thank you to bgw for adapting to what the fans asked for. Now if only they would let us pick the theme for a HoS maze, they'd be the MOST awesome park. Can't go wrong when you give your peeps what they want.
 
RE: Mäch Tower

Nice update! From the look of the update those new steel frames look very close to where the riders are going to be! Are the guest going to have to go up steps to access the ride, or is the ride going to fall down below these steel beams? Don't have your legs out when coming down if so!!:huh:
 
RE: Mäch Tower

You'll drop through it. This is another thing that JR mention when we interviewed him. For a clear picure of what it will be, check out that brochure that got posted somewhere around here.
