Came across this rollercoaster model site and one of the models is of Viper. Pretty good job on this one and detailed with the Snake Oil Elixer sign on top of the station.

I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

That's a very intricate model. Did Six Flags create that or was it made by an individual?

^Individual. He has a lot of them, some for sale but VERY expensive. They are not working models either.

I e-mailed the guy and asked how much a model of American Eagle would cost. He said $1200.

I know!!! I plan to put away $100 a month so I can get it in a year. He requires $600 upfront, and said it'd take 3-4 months to build.

I bet a demon model's less money because of the small track layout but... then again, the rocks and scenery could be costly....

I know I couldn't couldn't do it. Maybe Tidal Wave but it'd still be hard for me.
