Beastie was a wooden roller coaster previously located at Wonderland Sydney in Eastern Creek, New South Wales, Australia.

History

The ride originally opened with the park, being located in the Hanna-Barbera Land section of the park. It would have been named Scooby-Doo, but this was changed just before opening. The Hanna-Barbera Land section was eventually renamed to Little Wonders Land in 2001.

The coaster closed two years before the park itself closed. It remained standing but not operating for the remainder of the park's operation, eventually being scrapped in August of 2005 with the remainder of the park.
