I'd go with Super Missiles. There's a very Metroid/ Phantoon look going on

Hmmm....
Ah, so this is what Saurons been up to ever since 2003!
On a serious note, love that they brought back the original logo though, a vast improvement over the former one!

Reminds me of another Merlin attraction:-
![[2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation (6)](https://i0.wp.com/towersstreet.com/talk/proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fimages.coasterpedia.net%2Fd%2Fd8%2FKrake%2527s_Logo.jpg&hash=f35b8db6877bf88ffbe2fd7557b6f949 "[2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation (6)"){kind=logo}
It will certainly take some getting used to, but I like it! I guess this answers the question about what's been going on to the side of the lift hill at the front of the station. Looking forward to seeing how one big eye translates in reality.

I hope the eye 'follows' the train as it progresses through the first half of the ride, as well as the fly-past directly in front of where it will presumably be. I think a lot of the matte black Phalanx stuff we've seen will feel less dull if the monster is now seen and heard to be properly living, breathing and blinking.

I know there were vague rumours of animatronics etc, but probably best to temper expectations. Be pleasantly surprised if it's any more than static theming rather than disappointed.

Interesting how they're sticking with the 'post-apocalyptic' wasteland stuff, yet said wasteland happens to have retained its shiny gloss black paint. I would imagine there's still plenty of work to do yet for the wider area. Not important as it's just a rollercoaster, but what are the standing rocks now for? I always assumed they were linked to the original ancient cult worship stuff, which seems to no longer feature.
Just chucking Reborn on the end of the name, which has been long rumoured, seems tacky but fully understandable given that they'd want to highlight the fact they've just spent £millions retracking it. I never really cared too much about the logo, but seeing the old return without the 90's red and yellow looks pretty cool to be fair.
The last boss (William Burkin Stage 5) from Resident Evil 2 looks more than just a bit similar. Thought of it straight away as soon as I saw that image. In which case, someone should have told the cliché moustache guy that a few Magnum shots to the eye would have done the trick.

Failing that, get a few AP rounds and aim for the eye! Who knows, it's 'brain' might be behind it?

Really loving the new logo and artwork. Hope "reborn" gets dropped after a season or two but that's probably likely, right?

The 30 hidden in Reborn is a great touch. Seems to suggest the Reborn tagline is an anniversary thing and may not last forever? I don't really mind either way though.

I really hope the eye doesnt end up looking too silly as a flat screen

Sharing this as it's very cool... the brilliant team at Virtual Towers Online have designed an awesome Nemesis Reborn monorail skin;
Please, Towers, if you see this make it a reality! ![[2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation (16)](https://i0.wp.com/cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/1f60d.png "[2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation (16)")

They won’t, if only because there’s a good chance if they try and remove the existing vinyl the train will fall apart!

That does look amazing. I can't see it becoming a reality, but we'll see.

Anyone else think the new eye looks like the head of the old Nemesis gun? ![[2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation (23)](https://i0.wp.com/cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/1f440.png "[2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation (23)")

In the video, the new spiky leg tentacles are also in the foreground, a good distance from the body. I wonder if we're going to see more of them bursting out in various places in Forbidden Valley? Kinda like how the drill/gun thing had Nemesis flesh growing on it all the way at the entrance.

The Towers Website has also gained a Nemesis Reborn page, with better quality versions of the various assets.
As well as a re-written Nemesis legend:
![[2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation (31)](https://i0.wp.com/towersstreet.com/talk/proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.altontowers.com%2Fmedia%2Fekenkgnn%2Fnemesis-reborn-key-visual.jpg&hash=215164732a4b4dc9e6866d3a4bec598e "[2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation (31)")
I know this is far back, but, look at the river it's blood this could be a sign also I think there will be theming of supports broken
