Hi,
Not sure if it has been widely reported but it appears that the Tower Coaster FEAR is up for sale. See http://amusementtrader.com/189/Rollerco ... aster.html
This look like it was an extremely bad investment for O'Neills, and selling it does seem like the right thing to do, especially after last years RES debut debacle!!
Cheers
Jobius

Well wasn't this a smart investment.... Wouldn't spend the money to get parts for a certain ride, but threw away countless $$ on this mess... Was even worse to ride, No wonder there are none travelling the world.

I think I am one of the only people who sort of liked this ride although it was extremely rough and disorientating I'll admit. It should've been a good investment and would've been if it hadn't broken down so often. A looping coaster is really the only thing missing from the RES. I so wish the Big Dipper from Adelaide would travel. That one is awesome!

I hope that hunk of junk doesn't come to Rye because it is the rollercoaster equivalent to Melbourne Luna Park's lame excuse for a Pirate Ship Twin Dragon.

uh... Seeing as its an OCS ride, you'll never see it anywhere near the Mornington Peninsula, especially when Wittingslow are involved
