GLENDALE, AZ — Mattel Adventure Park released new images of two of its attractions coming to Glendale: The Hot Wheels Twin Mill Racer Car & Barbie Beach House.
According to a news release sent to ABC15, the park will open in 2024, but attendees at the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA) Expo in Orlando, Florida, will have a sneak peek of a “real-life coaster car from the Hot Wheels Twin Mill Racer” and will have the opportunity to see more images of the Barbie Beach House that's currently being built in Arizona.
For now, here’s a newly released rendering of the roller coaster, "Twin Mill."
“The Twin Mill, which is a C6-modeled Corvette dual engine car that's completely themed,” explained Cornell in an interview with ABC15 earlier this year. “This is a launching coaster that literally loads indoors, shoots out of a tunnel, zero to 50 in under three seconds, and goes right into a double loop, turns around in a helix, a double corkscrew goes to the end of the park and then comes back inside and once again,” he explained. He also added that this model is another top-selling Hot Wheels car!

The video in the player above features the “Bone Shaker Rollercoaster.”
“Well, it'll be the first launching coaster in Arizona, that's for sure and this is [magnetic propulsion] ... the same sort of technology that launches, you know, planes off an aircraft carrier. So that's super exciting. So, it's very fast, very quiet, very efficient,” said Cornell.
According to Cornell, this is the family coaster.
MATTEL’S BEACH BARBIE HOUSE
Mattel Adventure Park released this new rendering of the Barbie Beach House this week.
Here are three things that you expect to see at the Barbie Beach House:
- It will feature “state-of-the-art technology while simultaneously delivering a serious dose of nostalgia."
- There will be a “Barbie Dream Closet Experience” that is said to use hologram technology to bring Barbie to life in front of guests.
- “An innovative 'flying theater' feature takes guests on a journey everywhere from underwater to outer space, while the Barbie Beach Rooftop provides the perfect backdrop for snapping photos or sipping on a signature beverage.”
