Sorry if there is already a topic about this but did anyone ever try to make their own model of a roller coaster that wasn't k'nex. Here are a few websites i came across lately where these people make cool roller coaster models. you can even purchase them but they are probably really expensive. just something interesting i came across.
Here is a model of the viper at our six flags and many other real coasters but they are non-operating ones they are just for display

Here is a model kit it looks cool and i was thinking of ordering it.
http://www.coasterdynamix.com/ you can order these kits from the online store
Here is a video of the scorpion model kit finished show above

A furious storm once roared `cross the sea, catching ships in its path, helpless to flee. Instead of a certain and watery doom, the winds swept them here to Typhoon Lagoon! *****Are you ready to Rockit?!*****
the bottom 3 links are of moving coasters

Well, i've seen both the Viper and Scorpian Models before and i'm impressed by both! However, this is the first time i've seen the Scorpian work and i'm SHOCKED by how fast that thing goes. I guess I should have predicted that, but still, it's a lot faster than my k'nex models
As for Raptor, that's just crazy and impressive.  RIP: Trailblazer and Deja Vu...heck, even Alien Encounter
Fangs Up Cobra Style!!! Chitown's finest resident here!!!!!
The Raptor model is beautiful. I'm actually thinking of buying a kit and setting up a Batman coaster.
 "Oh My Gosh, She is such a whore!" - heard behind me exiting Raging Bull.
DO IT! DO IT! DO IT!
I used to make random coaster with the Screamin' Serpent K'nex models a while back. I think I still got it in me

i used to do that with knex too. I think these moving models are way better then knex though
