I’m gonna publish my review here:

Overall rating: 9/10
Theming: 10/10
Ride experience: 8/10

The ride, as a whole, is absolutely PHENOMENAL! The one small issue, as others have said, is the lap bar. I don’t really consider myself to have large thighs, but it did slightly dig in, not nearly enough to ruin the ride, however.

The theming is top-notch. BGW knocked out of the park with this one. One thing that I haven’t seen people mention is the fact that there is an actual bell in the station which the front load operator can ring if they want when the train dispatches. The onboard audio was great, too.

Finally, I want to mention the smoothness of the coaster. It felt like butter. Seriously. There’s essentially ZERO rattle. Great job, B&M!

If you do get the chance to ride it, I beg you to do it.

The smoothness is worth reiterating. I don't remember if Phoenix Rising had much vibration, I only rode once, but Penguin Treck, while a fun ride, has an extreme amount of rattle. BBW was so smooth! Can't wait to ride in the day to see more of the theming.
 
Got my ride yesterday and I enjoyed it. I never rode the original but the Iron dragon at cedar point was the ride that got me over the hump and willing to take bigger risk when I was around 10 and this ride should make many first ride memories for many of those intermediate riders.

My lingering thought was that the walk to the ride felt like you were leaving the park. Hopefully they will find a way to add a few age/size targeted flats to accompany the wolf's revenge.
 
I think I might squeeze in a BGW trip during my two week vacation later in July/August. I didn't think a family coaster would make me wanna get to a park faster than usual, but seeing how it turned out and everyone's reviews, it sounds like it's a great addition to the park. Looking forward to riding this!

Uploaded a No-Commentary Tour of the whole area, from the plaza, queue line, merchandise (prices included), and off-ride footage. Check it out if you’re interested. This is a nice ride by the way
 
BGWFans was just called a park shill account and blocked on Twitter by a thoosie for the sin of praising the ride's theming. There's definitely a weird subset of thoosies out there tonight who are angry about this coaster for whatever reason.
I’ve been called a shill too, dispite

Anyone know if it was open today? Thinking about going Thursday, but really only if it's open then. What do you all think?
