Flight Commander, that deathly ride that PKI used to have. It was ugly as heck, and had disaster written all over it.

The Mindbender- before the Green paint. The rusted brownish-orange mix was aweful.

Im gonna have to disagree with you on both of those (where else are you going to put a 300ft + tall coaster in Japan?) and the other one looks pretty interesting IMO....

Basically ever coaster at Six Flags Astroworld lol. Can you say "paint job"? Also Beatie, Anaconda, and the new water coaster at Mt. Olympus.

It's not really an ugly coaster..that's just a bad angle and it also helps that SF'S landscape blows.

Basically any ride that's over 15 years old tends to look like "The ugly stepsiter" to the "Cinderella" hypercoatsers and such.
After seeing some picture of some of the monstrosities at Six Flags Astroworld, I definitely concur that they're rather unsightly. The Revolution at Magic Mountains looks the same way, all faded and rusty-looking (it looks like the horrible Psyclone and Flashback are starting to look the same way. I guess you CAN judge a book by it's cover sometimes.) :-)

Thats what I was wondering, you can see the two lift hills, but the second hill has only one track, unless the other side does something else. Im confused

The first thing that comes to mind is a lot of Arrows and Vekomas are pretty ugly.

Great Bear. Just where it is makes it look horrible, and the surrounding area.

Rolling thunder is pretty bad as was GASM before it was repainted. But number one is when u see Space Mountain in the light. It's just a bundle of steel.

Coasters are the highlights of theme parks. Flat rides are the supporting cast.

Viper is by far the worst looking structure overall that I have ever seen in person. That this is just ugly sitting there.

I thought that the new colors had been on there for a couple of years now. Oh well, maybe I am wrong. I kind of like it. It doesn't look that bad. That is no where near the worst.
