An icon of innovation. A legendary drop. A legacy that lives on.
‘The X Factor’ is a true coaster trophy, paying tribute to one of the most extraordinary first drops ever created.
Inspired by the recently decommissioned X2 at Six Flags Magic Mountain, this piece celebrates a ride that redefined what a roller coaster could be. When it debuted in 2002 as the world’s first 4th Dimension roller coaster, X2 introduced a revolutionary concept: seats that rotate independently through 360 degrees as the train navigates the course, including its breathtaking 215-foot first drop. It pushed the boundaries of roller coaster design and challenged the limits of what was thought possible.
For nearly 25 years, X2 stood as an unmistakable landmark, greeting guests as they approached Six Flags Magic Mountain. Its towering lift hill and iconic first drop became a defining part of the park’s skyline and a lasting memory for generations of coaster enthusiasts.
Though the ride’s time has come to an end, its legacy is far from over.
Standing over two feet tall while occupying just 5.5 inches of width, ‘The X Factor’ captures the imposing presence of this legendary drop in a striking, space-conscious display piece. Every angle celebrates the dramatic geometry and engineering that made X2 unforgettable, transforming a landmark of coaster history into a centerpiece worthy of any enthusiast’s collection.
Make it your own. The X Factor is available in three configurations: the X2 skin, the original X skin, and the Eejanaika skin, allowing you to celebrate the version of this groundbreaking coaster that means the most to you.
X2 may be leaving the skyline, but its legacy will live on through Coaster Highlightz.
