| |
| − | Sonic Hopper! is a 9-meter drop tower attraction. However, unlike most, it has the ability for the cars to rotate around the tower as it goes up and shoots back down from a corkscrew feature, which gives the ride a twist compared to other drop towers. There are five ride vehicles painted in different colors that can hold a maximum of two riders, for a total of 10 riders altogether.

| − | On the top of the ride sat a giant statue of Sonic the Hedgehog holding a flag with the Sega Republic logo on it.
