In 2011, Compagnie Die Alpes presented an ambitious project to give the Walibi parks an overarching theme, the W.A.B and the Skunx. this project was not a success and quickly disappeared again in 2016. Today we're going to see what's left of this ambitious project.

BONUS: in World of Frozen in Hong Kong Disneyland we find this doll that will look very familiar to many Efteling fans, its pardoes. World of Frozen was designed by former Efteling designer Michel den Dulk and this was a small reference to his Efteling past. #efteling #themepark

Today marks 5 years since the iconic Bob disappeared from the Efteling. And something that many will not have mised is that Max and Mortitz reused the Bob's station. Despite some damage from the pranks the two rascals, the shape is still clearly recognizable. #efteling #themepark

In 2011, Compagnie Die Alpes presented an ambitious project to give the Walibi parks an overarching theme, the W.A.B and the Skunx. this project was not a success and quickly disappeared again in 2016. Today we're going to see what's left of this ambitious project.

In terra mitica we find this tower, which was the old entrance to Titanide (then Tizona) before it was moved to its current location in 2009 because the park had to sell the land on which the roller coaster stood on due to financial problems. #terramitica #themepark

The station from Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure is the remnant of one of the most iconic rides ever. the station is in fact reused from Dueling dragons. the iconic B&M roller coaster that stood here from 1999 to 2017. #universalstudios #themepark

and we go on to playground, an area that was WAB plaza until 2023 and was themed after the WAB. here we find of course the largest remnant, the speed of sound. which, apart from its onride music, still has all its WAB vs SKUNX theming.

In Psyké Underground at Walibi Belgium you can find this thing in the queue it is the old flywheel mechanism that the ride was using until 2013. The sentence above it "Psyké Underground escape turbine" is a reference to the rides previous name "Turbine". #themepark #walibi

moving on, from playground to play land. Walibi play land is still completely themed to the WAB vs SKUNX and is therefore the last place where you can still find many of the characters.

The bubble swirl is still themed to the power of the character Fibi. Fibi was the singer of the WAB and had the power to make bubbles.
