Track complete? Probably. Brake runs etc will come later I'd imagine

I got something of a confirmation of LIM/LSM launch today, but still not 100% positive. It just makes sense to upgrade the launch with this update, and I can't imagine they wouldn't replace the old system since B&M now offers it.

It was cool seeing the new color on the launch tube. The new blue/grey color is on the left:

I can't imagine this would use less electricity...

 

[GAcoaster]

Actually, it does use less.

I assume new LIM coasters don't use massive generator systems to power like Hulk's.
And good to see they are changing the color of the tube! Now lets just get some LEDs on there.

Id like to see a more intense launch, not necessarily a faster launch.

I'll be sad to see the rotating wheels go from the launch tube.

Here's a better shot of the launch tunnel with the new paint.



That looks like a color far more suited for the MCU, gee I wonder why?

 

[Teebin]

Sad too that the wheel sound will go away.

Why?

 

[Tobias]

Why?

That was me being a little sassy/sarcastic since the new paint color is lining up perfectly with the rumors that MSI is getting overhaul'd into the Marvel Cinematic Universe's look.

I'm not sold on the LSM launch myself. They just built Gringotts and used a pinch wheel system in favor of LSM's. Not saying its out of the question as I'm sure launch tech has become much more efficient in the last 20 years but point stands.

1 question. How does the new tube color relate to mcu? Just wondering, maybe I'm missing something??

If I had to guess, it seems that the original tube color was more of the colors of hulks pants from the older comics. Now it resembles the darker colors of hulks pants that are worn in the MCU.

But, that's merely a guess as I can be wrong.

*Points to the picture that DrIanMalcom posted a while back*

The lack of information on this project is exciting/scary depending on how you look at it (espeically compared to all the Kong info). I remember originally a "potter-level" queue being talked about but that seems far-fetched without a full station rebuild. I personally would love to see it very futuristic like this concept art of Bruce Banner's lab from The Avengers (credit to blaster.com). Time will tell.

When you look at Bruce Banner's lab, as well as other elements in the MCU such as Shield etc. there's a lot of greys, dark blues and such. So the color of the launch tube fits right in with the color pallete of that universe.

Wow ok. I had to look at a pic really quick. I guess the pants color change i never noticed. Just assumed he was dirty as hell lol.

Looks really good. Green really pops with these darker MCU colors. Thanks as always to bioreconstruct.

I like it. Hope they do something to the bottom.

Oh I'm in love. What if the trains primary color is this new color and matches the tunnel
