Rumor Project 2025: Used Flat Rides from FunPlex Myrtle Beach

[Python_Survivor]

Fun Spot America- Orlando has put their Schwartkopf Enterprise attraction that hasn't operated in some time up for sale, and with the Freedom Flyer coaster currently SBNO with no visible work in approximately a year, it seems fairly adament that a replacement is en- route.

For what it's worth, internal discussion amongst park employees suggests an RMC raptor coaster, as Mine Blower in Kissimmee finishes it's retrack.

One thing's for sure though- watch this space.

ETA: Kissimee's Chance Yo-Yo Ride was placed up for sale as well...

UPDATE 10/29: See most recent post. 2025 is certainly not a Raptor.

Fun Spot America's parks will open new attractions next year after the permanent closure of FunPlex Myrtle Beach.

The "Hang 10 Silly Cups" and the "Mach Fun" rides have already been spotted in the parking lot of Fun Spot Orlando, and it is presumed the other three that got saved ("Up & Overboard", "Hook and Slice", and the "Sunny Day Swing") are going to the Kissimmee park.

Kings Dominion, you reading this? That Enterprise would make a great 50th present!

This sucks because I actually enjoy enterprise rides

 

[Python_Survivor]

Confirmed?! Wow....

 

[CoasterAuditor]

RMC is definitely a manufacturer I'd like to see with a presence in Orlando..............as well as my residence.

FWIW Fun Spot Orlando has about 0.9 acres available towards the front of the park. Wonder Woman at SFFT uses only about half that.

In response to another comment....




Wow....

 

[warfelg]

Wonder if they bothered to get permits yet.

Not that I've found yet.

Is nobody noticing the Pinocchio emoji?

Snarky comment of them starting before permits filed.

But in reality. Good for them. But seems off that they would confirm something like this without all the t’s crossed and i’s dotted.

I mean it's possible they're messing with us, but John Arie did say recently that they're looking to add more capital to all their parks during a passholder event in Kissimmee...

 

[jscll]

I interpreted the Pinocchio emoji as them lying about it being bigger then Arie Force One.

Oh yeah—this is definitely bigger than Arie Force One.

Rides still unhomed, but would look great at the Atlanta park:

Fun in the Sun has been confirmed scrapped. The tower is the only one that we don’t know the fate of.

Sad to see the Orlando location selling their Schwarzkopf Enterprise from SFOG

Wow that seems like a waste? Ride was not that old. Even if they converted the hamster wheel cars to spinning cars, that could've been a nice pickup for a smaller park.

I believe you, but link? And do we have any idea why? I know the SBF rides are cheap, but surely something THAT new would still have some resale value...?
