I'm sure this isn't a concern to some people, but one this that's bugged me about this ride is that it's a wooden roller coaster based off a movie about machines taking over the world! Even with this idea bugging me at times, I can't wait to ride it!

Wow that is taking shape very fast. I have been busy watching the Diamondback webcam and nothing on this. Can't wait to see more.

Join the club! But I would rather have it be a wooden coaster themed to Terminator then a wooden coaster themed to nothing! I'm just glad Six Flags is actually trying to give it a story instead of just something like 'Scream!'.

I too am amazed at how fast it's coming along. I may have missed this somewhere but is it planning to open Memorial Day weekend like X2 last year, or is it just any time in May?

Hopes Magic Mountain gets a used Roller Skater that 36" kids can ride.

^ I'm pretty sure that it is supposed to open Memorial day weekend. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Trying to look smart on the TPR forums since 2008.

I think it looks very nice up against the freshly painted Deja Vu.

This monster is shaping up really nicely, great pictures. Just a silly side note\question though, I know that the "dead man's turn" is a common element on many wooden coasters, however, is there a reason they named it "dead man's turn"?

Thanks for the pictures Robb! I can't wait to see this next month a WCB. At the pace they are constructing it, the structure may be almost complete by then.

Robb, Cyberdyne Systems no longer creates Skynet under the current Terminator timeline. I'm sorry, but you need to up your nerd game.

Oh, and nice construction pics.
