I don't know if anybody else has seen them, as I don't know how far SFGAd spreads their advertising, but if anybody does get them, has anybody noticed that they keep saying El Toro, but showing all sorts of coaster footage of a completely different coaster.
Just wondering...

Six Flags is famous for that. They used Nitro shots for Goliath. They also use one Batman for all of the others.

Well, I don't see El Toro advertisements all the way over here, but I do see SFMW advertisements a lot and they show Scream! For Medusa!! When I was in So Cal for my DLR trip I was in the hotel room watching TV and they showed a red Vekoma flyer (I think) for Tatsu!! My cousin was like "Brandon, that coaster you were telling me about is already done!!"I said, "Andrew, you pay attention to SF commercials do you?"

By SFA, we have these commercials that show Borg Assasimilator (sp?) for Batwing and S:ROS at SFDL for S:ROS at SFA (not too much of a bid deal). Then, they get into a view from the front of the park, and it shows Riddler's Revenge @ SFMM. Yeah, SF commercials stink

Oh, and in the commercial, they showed clips advertising Bugs Bunny National Theme Park, showed our bugs bunny characters, but SFMM's Batman, etc, characters, and they showed Raging Bull for Nitro! It was so screwed up, I didn't know that they did it normally, I remember Superman's commercial, and it obviously wasn't ours. Nitro and Medusa were ours, though.
At least by reading this thread, I know I'm not alone!

I have a list of what ride they use to Sub.
Nitro- Raging Bull Goliath- Nitro El Toro- The Boss S: UF- The Flying Ditchmans B: TRs- SLCs
The only rides they use Real! footage for are KingDa Ka Tatsu

I don't think so, because I saw a grey Batman ride on our commercials, and ours has always had some type of yellow on it. I think It's SFMM's Batman, I haven't seen any SLC's on Sixflags commercials.
But if they do use The Boss for El Toro, they make The Boss look VERY good. But The Boss looks a lot better than El Toro.

On the Six Flags Great Adventure Homepage, they had (or maybe they still have it) a "video of El Toro". It showed all different woodies that looked nothing like El Toro.
C'mon, at least use the right coaster for your new one!!!
