Lol, You forgot the Serpent's Spiral, Dragon's Drop, and the Ferris Wheel Coaster.


-Edit-


I didn't see Lazor's post, lol.

There's the physics coaster set, but I'm not sure if that counts.

[Jogumpie]

I wouldn't include that one, no.

[BBaller347]

I was thinking of starting a thread like this, but also having a video of each set and a picture of the parts list to help someone to decide if they would like to purchase it. If anyone thinks this is a good idea, I could contribute a few parts lists pics and videos.

Renagade Run

[BGTKing]

Please start compiling as much information as you have on any of the sets and post your pictures of the completed sets if you have them. Please only use your photos, not random ones found on Google.

[lazor 22]

Only pic I can give is of the speed coaster then. Will get one tonight.

[BBaller347]

I don't have any pictures, but videos that show multiple angles, so is that acceptable? I'll also include parts lists. I'll be able to contribute Lava Launch, View Video, and Hornet Swarm sometime this weekend.

[BGTKing]

Whatever anyone has is great. As you can see, there is a new forum that will feature a nice first post with information, followed by posts in which users can add their reviews.

This thread will be used to help collect the info.

[BBaller347]

Ok, a few more questions:
1 - Are we giving information here, and then you are posting the first post, or can we post a first post in that thread?
2 - That thread is just for roller coasters, and not other types of models like ball machines, right?
3 - Is the first post of that thread JUST information, or can the poster (if it's not you) give a little review too?

Thanks in advance. I'm a stickler for consistency, and I just want that forum to be nice and neat.

Post everything in this thread for now.

I finally got around to taking the pictures of the parts lists of the sets I have. I included Motorized Madness on accident, but I thought what the heck. I don't have the original VV set or the Serpent's Spiral. I also included a few videos of mine.

Motorized Madness Ball Machine:




View Video Coaster:




Hornet Swarm Dueling Coaster:




Lava Launch:




DoubleDare Dueling:


Dragon's Drop:


Sorry it took so long.

I've got the part lists for the Vertical Vengeance, Renegade Run and the Serpents Spiral.

^ Renegade Run

^Vertical Vengeance

^Serpents Spiral

[BBaller347]

Hey Liam, you posted the Renegade Run twice instead of the Speed Coaster parts list.

Also BGT, some additional information you may want to add in the information threads of the Vertical Vengeance, Serpent's Spiral, and Renegade Run: The rods from the Vertical Vengeance set are NOT the same lengths as the rods in all the other slim track sets, but the connectors, track, cars, spacers, and rod-clips are identical to other sets. The motor in the Vertical Vengeance set runs on a micro rod rather than a standard sized rod, and the gears in the Vertical Vengeance, Serpent's Spiral, and Renegade Run are similar to the gears in SS sets rather than the newer gears that come in every other slim track set.

Here are some pictures to demonstrate what you said about the micro rods, gears and motors







and here is the speed coaster parts list.

[BBaller347]

Nice pictures Liam! They will really eliminate any confusion.
