it has ZPPER in yellow, and the eye is still grey, all the bulbs have been taken out..... is it being re-done, or are they just leaving it?

I heard North America Midways brought their Ali Baba, 1001 Nights and Rainbow to the Calgary Stampede and Canadian National Exhibition this year. It would've been a great opportunity to do a comparison between the three similar rides.

No I'm not sure but I do think NAM own a Huss Rainbow at least or they did recently. It's a bit difficult to tell now as the company is a combination of several I think.
