[@brickstv8761]

The marketing is the best part of the retro squad, we need permanent flats at towers

[@freddiebainbridge4322]

Init bro it's so annoying no flat rides but the blade and it's not even scary so much space as well be able to put a good permanent flat where the two retro squad are

[@Sebastian-kx4nu]

There’s an interesting pattern that is to obvious to miss, they remove and replace one ride per year, quite interesting but sad as well.

[@zackz6893]

Yeah I agree with you all the retro squad was good the first year the second year it was alright but the third year of retro squad is pretty bad they really need to get some permanent flats next year and get rid off the retro squad rides because the areas with retro squad rides in looks temporary and 2 retro squad rides next to each other is not very good they need to stop next year and get some permanent flats

[@noodlesthesquishy9996]

Uhhh....

[@genericname3516]

I don't know why we seem to be getting a hint of lore for a series of seasonal flat rides, but I'm 100% here for it

[@magicalhikari5859]

I think they might be going a bit too far at this rate lmao

[@altonalex1235]

I love retro KEEP EM ALL!! ❤️

[@TheDooDooFart869]

I liked the bit where twistatron said its twistin time and then proceeded to twist everywhere truly one of the moments of all time

[@jackbluepirate87]

I love that bit when Twistatron said "It's twisting time!" And twisted over everybody... (I'm sorry...)

[@HarryJSmith]

The first thing I thought of too 😭

[@2025SPACEDUDE]

He became a twist villain

​@@noodlesthesquishy9996 Why hello there

[@JoeyTheBeastHD]

This needs to be the final year of Retro squad - We need more Permanent Flats

[@trickrtreat2004]

0:04 I have a theory about the antagonist of the retrosquad, he could be "spider glider" because he looks like he assembles green and purple colours with Web patterns around him

[@noodlesthesquishy9996]

I actually thought that too

[@Vlog_Factory1]

actually at the top of the computer he is using it says user:spookspin

[@trickrtreat2004]

Sounds similar though

0:37 the Transformation scene reminds me of the Galvatron transformation from the Transformers 1986 Movie.

they were referencing that :3

@@noodlesthesquishy9996 Okay, Thanks for confirming it.

[@Airtime_Adds]

Alton Towers Resort, Please do one thing that all enthusiasts will be happy about if you are even listening (Which I doubt they are). Please Add Permanent Flats if you could.

[@samuelmanley1]

I think it’s time for some permanent flat rides, I’m happy with the retro squad, as long as the rides are in rotation every year

[@Amusementnational]

Towers actually could keep this one permanently! Enterprise was a portable ride not permanent. This ride fits nicely and also looks good too! Fits in better with X sector too!

[@TheOfficialSmudgy]

Totally Agree!

[@ChirpyChips-vj4uo]

This would work well. Twists trim destroyed the other retro squad members and takes Permenant control. The name twistatron even sounds like it belongs in x sector tbh

[@Alastorhazbin7]

Trust me they most likely have plans for after project horison

[@altonalex1235]

Agree retro is brillaint!!!

[@LeDogeSebbyPersonGuy]

Rollerdisco, you’re mine!!! Hahahahahahhahahahah

[@thrillcoaster1684]

The fact that the retro squad has a story line makes me worried we will see it return again next year

[@TheDooDooFart869]

Why? Its more rides

[@thrillcoaster1684]

@@TheDooDooFart869 I like that there's more rides, but the quality of them is no where near to the standard we all expect from a major themepark

This is so fun how retro this advert is. They totally referenced Morbius XD

[@Gyro69420]

Something cool I noticed, when twistatron launches out of the hole you can see mixtape stood by it

[@TheDooDooFart869]

Remember in all the other retrosquad trailers it shows potential rides so we have a bucket load of potential flats

[@taylorfims207]

I don’t know why everyone is saying that the retrosquad is bad I love them also good job on the animation I think the fact that twistatron has an Australian accent is so funny keep it up Alton towers oh and one more thing thanks for the ride access pass it really helps my autism thank you!!

[@TANC_Charley]

They all sound Australian, and I like it :D

[@midnightgirlofthelunarmoon1164]

Will Twistatron have a time to shine? What is going to happen to Roller Disco? Who is this mysterious villan? Find out in The Retrosquad: The Terror of Twistatron!

[@lewismcleod-tl4li]

Look so good

[@turtwigisgod5251]

Best advert I’ve seen in a while 😂

[@jacobxdfishing9937]

Can’t wait

[@Ross_M]

Spinjam vs Twistatron transformers fight caught on camera (Gone Wrong!)

[@TheTechGiantYouTube]

Such a shame some good permanent flat rides have gone forever, but i suppose these are better than nothing. But two side by side? going to look like a fairground. That said i'm looking forward to The Curse at Alton Manor, when i visit next week. But what i want to know is where is my VIP invite for when i do a vlog about it? hint hint, wink wink 😉

[@angrybirds2973]

Looks awesome

[@David_F12024AndUK]

It looks very cool.

[@wolffuryanimates7227]

DUDE, THIS IS SICK

[@luca_vm]

Interesting to see that the new retrosquad ride is in Enterprise's place, which is right next to spinjam... I'm excited to see what will happen where rollerdisco was!

[@andrewthelegend42]

a zamperla nebulaz would fit in perfectly in x sector

[@Twistatron]

It's twisting time!

[@benthethemeparkbuilder]

Anyone see Mixtape watch Twistatron fly out? 0:30

[@rosearerosies1]

I saw it

[@RollerCoaster_Central]

so cool

[@ThemingObsessed]

We do need some permanent flat rides at Alton but the point of the retrosquad was to increase capacity *around* the park but there are now two retrosquad rides right next to each other in X-sector, though for the area where roller disco was to be hopefully be turned back into a picnic area. Anyway this looks like a great addition to the retrosquad so can't wait to get back to Alton Towers in two days!

[@magicalhikari5859]

I think it’s more to do with where the new ride could fit more than anything

[@MrGamerDoesVids]

Voice acting! From the name, I think Twistatron will attack Spinjam next year. He’s next to Spinjam after all

[@TheOneDangerousBacon]

Or funk n fly

[@magicalhikari5859]

Maybe Spinjam will get relocated next year, assuming Funk n Fly is the next to go?

[@TheOneDangerousBacon]

@@magicalhikari5859 Destroy funk n fly then spinjam retreats to where funk was to get away

[@alexthegrimlock]

Amazing :)

[@scrambled5948]

Woah, retrosquad lore!

[@Loot-legion]

You are good at making trailers

[@swift-bc4rp]

Can't wait !!

[@SmileAlways7144]

if this was real then if you live in Alton or are driving to London and are awake at night you will have a chance once a year of seeing flying robots oh and also Twistatron had a sad face in X-sector which is kind of weird because doesn't that section of the park themed to the ministry of joy so i think Twistatron is going to get marmalised

[@rosearerosies1]

😂

[@metrogaming409]

0:28 "G'day"

[@DeadMaskBozo]

Now spinjam and twistatron are tight next to eachother

[@just.jack.z.09]

Hell yeah! Why stop now? Let's demolish wicker Man and replace it with a teacups ride

[@Jesus.is.Lord_forever]

This looks so cool!

[@Adzcantsing]

Sounds like the retro video game robotron. Actually I wished they had a retro arcade to go with these flat rides. Like pac man, galaga etc.

[@kianbrown5592]

Twistatron is where enterprise used to be does that there is another replacing roller disco

[@tommytube5518]

This is sick

[@kylebicker7649]

So, this new villain that captured Roller Disco and made Twistatron evil... What does this mean?

[@noodlesthesquishy9996]

time to find out

[@CloudTheAngeloud]

Probably turned him evil but we’ll find out next year

​@@CloudTheAngeloud seeing the control panel on the ship it looks like they cant but if they find something to make then vulnerable to reprogram them to be evil

If this now has a bit of lore with like a bas guy this makes me worried that this isnt the last year surely we cant have two next to eachother aswell
