Looking at the live video cams today and can't help but notice how beautiful of a coaster Mantis is! Such a great looking B&M, just a shame it's not appreciated as much as it was planned to..... LOL we need an announcement date! This year seems special, but so secretive and possibly misleading.

And when that doesn't work, they'll put a box around.. Wait, it is a box.

Maybe they can just swap the trains for B&M flyers. A flying hotel. How eerie, on Lake Erie.

So you will open the door and fall down to the first floor?

No, they're going with flying rooms. The beds will hold you up to the ceiling like a bat in flight.

They're going to cut the power and make everyone travel through the hallways on luggage carts. Voila, dark ride...

As much as I want it to happen for Mantis to get Floorless trains, this topic isn't going anywhere. Might as well lock it Jeff.

This is the longest Mantis thread ever. I'd say you have to leave it open at least until they announce that nothing is going to change. I still think Mantis is a decent option for the Lebron coaster. It's a lot more "showy" than say Mean Streak and is not a coaster that is a big part of marketing for the park at the moment.
