^Toverland already has a launched coaster.

If it is a water ride and other ride(s) like the article suggests; I'm guessing a raft ride and drop tower, with possiblly some smaller rides as well.

I'm not familiar with their attendence or how busy Toverland typically is....but Toverland just doesn't strike me as a park large enough for a B&M.

Although any type of launch coaster I would be all over for......


Hydra was 13 million dollars , right now that's 8.85 million euros and could fit in the budget.

If thats how much Hydra was surely the modified Batman The Ride that turned up last year would be about the same price?

Seems like a batman with a slightly changed angle after the first drop. Although as with all rumours this could all be rubbish :) but nothing like a bit of stirring.

I can't see the image but I found it on Screamscape in the Toverland page.

I think that there was already a rumor about a Batman clone for Toverland.

^It linked me to a 404 page, but seeing how it says "Batman clone". I'm assuming its going to be a Batman clone.

I think it would be cool for this park to get a 1/2 indoor, 1/2 outdoor coaster. Either a spinner or water coaster will do fine. However, I'm sure whatever the park has to offer will be good for getting guests in the park.

A little update for you guys:

- The director of Toverland confirmed that Toverland WILL be opening a new rollercoaster in 2010. She stated this on a local television talkshow.

If you know the dialect, you can check it out here.

And some other stuff:
- The budget of € 10 million is said to be raised to € 12 million ($ 17.7 million).
- It is not know if the two announcements descibe the same ride. Either the 10mil water ride is being replaced with a 12mil rollercoaster, or they are planning a 12mil rollercoaster with 'water'. It is not specified what this water element could be. This could be a B&M-splashdown or a fountain in the queue line.
