I don’t think so mate. Yeh, that is ridiculous to sell off some of the showgrounds. And offcourse, its for more residential areas. You poor Melbourne residents, the show has definitely gone done in the last decade (well in the carnival area anyway) Has anything else around the grounds changed. I know the whole complex was redeveloped in 03 I think. But anything else? At least the horses will be back

Space Roller still didn't have it's signs at EKKA so I don't think they are installed.

It's a shame that Space Roller doesn't have some signs, it looks very plain!

Space Roller still looks amazing... but the signs do make it lack a bit of quality...

Yeh, and only 4 lightboxes are being used instead of 6. But I liked the signs he had on there, hope he doesn't get different ones. I'm suprised they still haven't been delivered, must be busy over at Mondiol

The new signs for the Space Roller were collected from my workshop in Sydney today and taken to Melbourne,they still have to have the lights put in them so i doubt they will be in use at the show.
The decoration was completed in time for Brisbane Show but unfortunately as the insurance company was very slow in coming up with the money for them Russell couldn't take delivery as soon as he would have liked.
Two of the signs are the same and two are different,he no longer has the space-ship or the rocket-ship ones.

Just got back from the Showgrounds... must the say, they way they have set up the rides is INSANE! ugh... for the first time, I actually am happy with the Melbourne Show...

Pix coming asap (Yes tonight)

Huss, I cant wait! Thanks 4 that info Mark. Hey Huss, i'm shocked that ya like the way that they hav set it up! Also did ya see the rides in operation around 6:30pm on channel 7 when they were doin the weather? It looked great, they had power surge and Space Roller operating. From what was on the news Raupen Bahn is next to Power Surge.
