This was one of the first things I wanted to make in NL2 since I was looking forward to being able to fit the whole footprint without cheating, but it had been in development hell for some time due to motivation and other issues. I would consider this to be my favorite wooden coaster, but you might have already guessed that if you paid attention to inspiration I've taken with some of my custom rides.
Thunderbird is more scenery than another recreation.

Decided to remake it since I wasnt entirely satisfied with the version I made in 2016. Made in the 5HOP8 contest template (tho I didnt participate in that).
Changes from the 2016 version include the addition of the rosebowl replacing that simple overbank at the far end, a mid-course launch, tweaking the footprint to more closely align with the 5HOP8 boundary, and smaller things here and there. Like the original, it features a launched lift hill and barrel rolls at the very beginning and end.
Backstory: The Beasts son has died of a terrible illness and was brought back to life by scientists as a cyborg. With its newly acquired cyborg upgrade, its now meaner and stronger than ever.
