I was just wondering what it will look like? I'm thinking the dirty, old, rusty type station, like Batman at S.O.G. I'm trying to imagine a space type station though. What are your thoughts?

I'm guessing a concrete platform with a sheet-metal roof.

Although since they are theming this ride, it might be something like a US Government Cover-Up building, maybe like FOF at PKI or PKD.

I think it will look like a borg ship on the inside with borg standing around maybe even a couple of computers and things flickering if not then well that would be nice.

I think that it will look like a country cabin that has been infilstated with borgs. Make it look like the borgs are investigating their crash site. I would think that the borg ship will be the only real "alien" material.

I actually think this suits the story best without being a second flight coaster too much. The idea is that Carowinds was building another coaster and the Borg landed in the same area as the new coaster. Any time of typical theming with Borg infestation would be wicked cool.

Well, the coasters staging area is going to be themed to the inside of the Borg Collective. The staging area is like the pre-show area, before you enter the station. I am sure the station will look like the Borg took it over. By the way, the ride is complete. All that is left is testing, theming(including touch-ups), and landscaping.

I don't watch Star Trek, but I looked up images of the Borg Collective. It is sort of like a 'space station', I guess? <a href='http://www.mentasm.force9.co.uk/startrek/borg/borg3.jpg' target='_blank'>Here</a> is a photo.

I can't wait for the next update on the site. Interesting to see some lansdcaping and themed areas coming to life.
It would be great if they could make a station appear as a building being Assimilated.

It looks as though the FOFs and the Borg *** will be almost identicle in themeing.

i like the country cabin that is bieng investigated by borgs idea,but i think it'll be like the inside of the control center of the ship or somthing




<off topic>why do some people say Borg ***? BORG is much easier and borg *** is just stupid<off topic>

While i do not like the name i will grow to like it. A bad name is worth a good theme. Dont be suprised to hear me call it stealth cause we all know what is really is under all that paint.
