Hi, thanks so much for visiting & enjoying our site! That's a great question about VHS, I'll let Rob chime in there since he's got thoughts. But I had to say I LOVE your coaster page! Great list and rankings, what's your all time favorite? I used to do 3D work for theme parks so this kind of stuff's close to my heart <3 - K
I have toyed with the idea of adding VHS to the site but the market is just out of control. For years after VHS was initially phased out you could not give tapes away and even the harder to find ones wouldn't run you more than a few bucks. Somewhere in the timeline of the universe people put on their "nostalgia glasses" and decided VHS tapes were worth their weight in gold. For example, I wouldn't feel right selling
someone a Sleepaway Camp tape for $200 when you can buy a blu ray for $20. I could put a ton of crap tapes up for cheap, there's enough exercise videos circulating to fill 100 landfills lol but anything worth owning is just too damn expensive - R
Thank you K and R! Appreciate the love on the coaster page and it's so cool to hear from a fellow coaster head that has experience in the industry! Right now my fave is Velocicoster! and totally understand about VHS, the secondhand market has gotten totally out of hand.
Yesss great answer, Velocicoaster is mine too! :D The launches, views, theming... I would say it's the greatest attraction ever made, if not for the ET ride! (half joking LOL, Rob and I just really love that one) - K
