KONA

Enjoy this fun take on "Villains", a typically dark and evil theme is shown in a different light with a cartoony styling. Inspired by a ride I remember from way back in the day at Cedar Point's Camp Snoopy, this reimagining shows what it could have been had Cedar Fair decided to drop ungodly amounts of money to theme a flat ride. 

FLORIANPLACK

We asked Tamatoa himself what he thinks of this submission:

"Well, Tamatoa hasn't always be this glam. I was a drab little Crab once. Now I know I can be happy as a clam. Because I'm beautiful, and I have a plane carousel on top of me, baby!"

True Story.

Just in case CoasterB is reading this: Moana is a 2016 American computer-animated musical adventure film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. Tamatoa is the film's second antagonist - a villainous giant crab that covets all things shiny and valuable, such as plane carousels.

GROUP four // theme: arabian

REDFIELD

Our intrepid archaeologists sneaks past the Axis military base, entering a shimmering city of brass. Descending down a dark well at the edge of the town, a flickering light appears at the depth of the inky black hole. A cavern comes into view, full of old mining equipment and deadly snakes! Fending off the vipers, our hero reaches his prize, a magic lamp holding a Djinn. He makes a quick escape, commandeering a plane from the base and taking to the skies! 

ADYSON

An old Arabian city, famous for its gardens and architecture now has planes as well. Some of the pioneers of aviation decided to move to the beautiful city because this is my theme and the flat ride. 

ERIK_GMBH

The information era has treated the Arabian Peninsula well. With the introduction of pesticides and biplanes to the region, crop dusters have become a staple for date farmers of the Arabian Peninsula, which has brought them significant financial success. In celebration, the first annual Buraidah Date Festival kicks off! This is one of the many modern Arabian market squares participating in the celebration with an array of shops, stands, and a temporary biplane carnival ride: Date Dusters. So come, relax, and enjoy the festival! 

MARNIT

December 2010, one man in Tunesia driven to despair by oppression set off a chain of events that would change the Arab world as we all knew it. Within hours, protests broke out that would spread across the Arabian sphere of influence like wildfire. Within a month, the anti-government protests spread to 10 countries, with 10 more in the month that followed.

As foreign nations instructed their citizens to leave as fast as they could, the streets of many large cities in the region filled with their own. The protests turned to violent state oppression, counter attacks, and several civil wars. Within 2 years' time multiple governments fell, many others changed and over 60.000 people had died.

These events are now known as the Arab Spring.
