This ride had to go. Not because it wasn't a good ride (although I didn't like it). It had to go because it was one of several "off the shelf generic rides", that made California Adventure look cheap. Fortunately, DCA is starting to look more like a Disney theme park, and not a cheap traveling carnival.

@Benstudio13 The tower of terror can be thought of as a drop tower, but not the conventional one that Maliboomer was. A normal drop tower goes up, drops down while a normal launch tower shoots up and lowers slowly back to the ground. Maliboomer was a generic S&S Power Space Shot. Any park can buy one, unlike the tower of terror which is a WDI custom design. It is part tower, part dark ride.

@rollercoastersrock Ahem, there is already another launch/drop tower in DCA that's not goin' anywhere anytime soon. The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. It's basically a better version of the shitty Maliboomer.

@dughmo yeah i agree, it was alot of fun, i went on it so many times, but it would be far too dangerous to try to redo it and it would probably cost more

[dughmo]

@infamous741 i know but i mean really it such a fun ride but they allready took it down

[infamous741]

@dughmo have you seen how tall that thing is? it would be so hard to "just remodel it"

[dughmo]

thats stupid why take it down just remodel it
