I like that some of the new ride pieces can also be used as standalone props. Not sure we need a whole new batch of 20 different kinds of pumpkins...
Not sure why they differentiate as 'second release' some of the re-released ride pieces. Does that mean they won't work with last years pieces? Seems like overkill to mention them as second releases. Maybe I just don't get why they bothered to say it. LOL.
Wish the green pumpkins were shiny and glowing (they are in the members section, so I expect more from that kind of item). Still, we got green pumpkins...which alot of people have been waiting for ![Smile :)](http://www.vmknobs.com/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
Love the candles and scrolls. Lots of potential for these new items. Should be fun to see what people do with them ![Wink ;)](http://www.vmknobs.com/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
ETA: Everyone remember to say 'ride on' and 'ride off' while building with the new rides to make placement easier ![Wink ;)](http://www.vmknobs.com/Smileys/default/wink.gif)
Speaking of the ride on and ride off thing, just how does Ormondedude get his ride pieces to stay up in the air on some of his rides? I've tried a couple of things, but those dratted things won't stay up there. So what am I missing? lol And, how does the ride on/ride off thing work? I thought the dedicated (or whatever you call it) button was supposed to make putting the pieces together easier?
Tiger,
Not sure how Dude does those to stay in the air - I had heard once long ago but wasn't what I was going to attempt so it didn't stay with my brain thoughts.

(edit: while i was typing here, flame posted how dude does this)....

The "ride on" & "ride off" sayings show you the ride pieces with an arrow as to which direction it is going if I remember correctly. The dedicated or "grid" mode of building does make it easier to fit the pieces together for me - but the "ride off saying shows me which direction the ride is going.
Flame, not sure why we need 20 different kinds of pumpkins unless I want a really big pumpkin patch!

As to 2nd release for the rides, I did not check them to see - but I'm guessing they still work with last years. Guessing they put them as 2nd Release so people buying items in a frenzy wouldn't get upset that they bought them thinking they were new. I mean what if you had like 3 rooms full of last years ride pieces and then found out you just bought more because VFK didn't tell you....
