Looks pretty good for being in a terrible spot...It won't be anything too special, especially for a park like GAdv, but I can't say I've ever ridden a B&M I didn't enjoy. I like the color choice...yeah it's basically the same as Riddler, but that ride's scheme always looked nice to me anyways.

^Chang is actually not a bad coaster at all. I like mantis a bit better only because of the overall location, but it's still a pretty fun coaster.

Mantis put me to sleep. I only rode it once despite my 3 days at CP. It had a short line every time we walked by and we still didn't feel any need to ride it twice. Especially with MF right across the way.

It's a Parallax theme. The weirdest part is that one segment on that yellow corkscrew is green.

I went there yesterday for the parks opening day and It looked like the whole ride was finished other than some track being yellow. I could see the frames for the que house and the coaster repair shed.

^Why would they want the track to be yellow? That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard.

It's theming. Green Lantern's nemesis is Parallax. I think there will be some tunnels or something, but those yellow tracks were re-painted that way. Just look at the park map.

Cant wait for the season-pass preview event. Should be interesting to finally have something to compare Mantis to.

The yellow and gray around the corkscrew is now just the normal green. The loop is the only thing left yellow on the ride.

yeah the gray/white was primer for the yellow to turn to green. the only thing yellow now is the loop. Yellow represents fear[i believe] which is why i think they switched it to the loop instead of the cork, but who knows!
