@The8BitNerd I'm willing to bet Batwing won't be around much longer. They could send over Nighthawk's parts and what's left of Firehawk, but FH's parts just sat there, so who knows what happened
7:39 it was cool/frustrating walking in that back area as a fright fest employee seeing the construction… then dealing with all the dust and vehicles 😂
you were actually correct about herschend investing in wild adventures. in september they announced water's edge boardwalk expansion. it will include new rides (no coasters), a show stage, eateries, games, and more. last month they also just opened their new safari campground.
Buy or Sell: Superman at Magic Mountain is another merger casualty, but not until after the 2026 coaster so the park can retain the 20 coaster record. Remains SBNO until then.
Buy or Sell: Nighthawk at Carowinds get replaced by a LogFlume Buy or Sell: Also at Carowinds, Drop Tower and Screamweaver get replaced by Switchback from ZDTs.
Buy or sell: Over Texas’ “record breaking” dive coaster coming in 2026 will actually be a giga, and they weren’t just saying that in the survey to drum up interest.
I’m low key kinda mad that Six Flags is scrapping Green Lantern instead of sending it to SFA. For eff’s sake, we’d take literally *anything* at this point.
I’m just saying as someone who lives half way between Great Adventure and SFA. You don’t want Green Lantern and if you did you’d want the floorless conversion, which you already have.
Buy Or Sell: Epic Universe will contribute to a turning point in which parks compete on the basis of increasingly-Universal themes (nature, stewardship, commonality, and timeless indigenous true history) instead of individual superlatives (aka the coaster wars) encompassing fictional backstories and adverse long-range environmental impacts.
Sell. Six Flags New England's only competition in the region is a ragtag collection of much smaller parks, whose advantage is that they're closer to the clientele and arguably have more of a family atmosphere. The company can ignore it for long periods of time without hurting it much, so they probably will. What I think it actually needs now is not a coaster but a major dark ride with some family appeal, which several of those smaller parks actually have! But I doubt that's coming any time soon.
The other rumor is that Kingda Ka was going to get a full overhaul to it tech in 2026 to return to its former glory-which easily would've added 10 years to its life
Here's the thing about the American Heartland park: it's an hour away from NW Arkansas, which is home to Walmart, JB Hunt, Tyson... I think that's why it's getting built where it is. I'm honestly surprised Bentonville isn't getting a theme park. So, I guess, Buy or sell: Bentonville, Arkansas gets some sort of theme park by 2035.
Buy or Sell: for the next few years, Six Flags will continue to remove multiple troublesome roller coasters and flat rides at once (ala Six Flags Great Adventure) at their parks.
To be fair, if you axed Cedar Fair management in May 2024 about Cedar Point getting a new ground-up coaster in 2025 and they answered honestly, they would have said no, too.
I see three more easily on the remove list in El toro, Joker, and Harley Quinn. I’d also argue that Superman and Jersey Devil are on shaky ground as they both had major issues this year. Nitro also had major issues but the one benefit it has is that it’s a B&M hyper, which is a more standard model.
LIVE FROM THIS COMMENT SECTION, IT’S… ✨⭐️-THE BUY OR SELL SHOW!-⭐️✨ BUY OR SELL: Six Flags Quiddiya, or whatever is going to open from it, gets delayed until 2026
I love buy or sell. Keeps me coming back
Fr🎉
The humor here is off the walls, never stop lol
Buy or Sell: Six Flags Great America's next coaster is a family launch coaster
For someone who’s home park is Great America, that honestly wouldn’t be a bad fit, something for kids before prepping for Flash or Maxx Force.
@@tigerrocks503chase8 If they don't get the river rapids back up, a vekoma launch like big bear mountain would be great and a crowd eater.
for the love of god no please give us our headliner aleady
never ever underestimate the incompetence of Six Flags needs to go on a shirt 😂😂 this made me laugh so much and Is getting proven everyday
Buy or sell, "If Top Thrill 2 fails to reopen next year, it's getting demolished."

Buy or sell: after the nighthawk retirement batwing will also be removed by at latest 2026 in the Six Flags Purge
Buy or sell: falcons flight will be the only exacoaster to be built
@@COASTERCLUB98 buy. They'll either get away with pushing 400/500 ft rides or else They'll jump all the way to 700 ft
Buy just because there's not a single other park on earth capable of getting one, both land wise and financially
I'd buy that for a dollar.
Great video! Its hard to predict the amusement park industry. You did great with what you knew. I really enjoyed watching this!
Chris,
Now it's official:Nighthawk at Carowinds is being removed. I think it was mentioned on one Buy or Sell video (about being removed).
No😢
Well, now there’s only one Dutchman left.
I’ll use this opportunity to re-up my request for Buy or Sell: the Flying Dutchman model will be extinct in five years.
@The8BitNerd I'm willing to bet Batwing won't be around much longer. They could send over Nighthawk's parts and what's left of Firehawk, but FH's parts just sat there, so who knows what happened
And the enterprise and Drop tower are going down with it.
7:39 it was cool/frustrating walking in that back area as a fright fest employee seeing the construction… then dealing with all the dust and vehicles 😂
Buy or Sell: Kingda Ka's replacement is a mack extreme spinner strata shuttle coaster.
Unfortunately Buy 😕
And to throw salt on the wound, SF gives it a bung name like "Ultimate Spinsanity"
Knowing six flags, they would do that and try to make us forget Ka even existed
Sell.
Never, ever, ever under estimate the incompetence of Six Flags. I think it’s a hotel.
Neither, it'll be the world's tallest SlingShot ride and they'll name it Flingda Ka. 😆

They've also spent quite a bit on the Christmas event
Now I got 2 defunct credits. First Primeval Whirl at Animal Kingdom and now Nighthawk...
Happy to be a patron sub! Thanks for the amazing content!
Buy or sell: Switchback at ZDTs gets relocated to one of the lower tier six flags parks.
Buy or Sell: Superman at Magic Mountain is another merger casualty, but not until after the 2026 coaster so the park can retain the 20 coaster record. Remains SBNO until then.
4:20 the reason I put commented that for buy or sell was because a park employee told me they were getting something new 😭
Buy or Sell: Nighthawk at Carowinds get replaced by a LogFlume
Buy or Sell: Also at Carowinds, Drop Tower and Screamweaver get replaced by Switchback from ZDTs.
"Buy or Sell" if an Intamin Exa Coaster gets built in the United States, it would be built on one of the hills in the Las Vegas area
