  1. After having gone to Mystic Timbers announcement and seeing how many showed up for that I’m kind of glad I can’t make it. That area is going to be so crowded and if you want to have a spot you’re going to have to be there early.

  2. They did have shirts for sale directly after the announcement. For Mystic Timbers it was two locations. A small table set up right by the announcement and at the shop near The Beast Entrance since the announcement was on the back of the Tomb Raider building.

  3. Honestly I knew there would be issues from the moment The Beast Unleashed started to go viral in our area. Good for the creator but bad for the park because no matter what they did people would question things thinking we were getting that fan made coaster. I had so many people from around work and family that are not enthusiasts talking to me about that video and how awesome it looked and they couldn’t wait to ride it. Now you’ll have a lot of general public remembering that video and scratching their heads. 

     

    Im going to put this again people people misconstrue things. I’m happy regardless.

    Nobody has stated the obvious that asteroids caused the Dinosaurs to go extinct and ties in with Dinosaurs Alive which this runs through.

    I’m with you on this.

  5. I see my comment rubbed some the wrong way before. The main reason I want people to temper their expectations is so we don’t have people at the announcement booing when it’s not as tall or any other stat that they wanted or feeling left down when you leave. Keep your expectations minimal so it’s nothing but good news while you’re there. 

     

    I really don’t care what it comes out to be I’m excited regardless.

  6. Y’all are just setting yourself up for disappointment if you think it’s going to be any more than what’s been uncovered on the blue prints. The previous two coasters have come out the same as the leaked blueprints did.

  7. And I’m reminded why I quit posting here. Instead of active discussions on topic or not they would rather just delete the comments instead of moving them. There’s nothing going on today so a little off topic discussion isn’t a big deal.

    I've never understood VR on rollercoasters. You'd think riding one would be spectacle enough. 

    Iron Dragon is a piece of slow meandering trash and the only redeemable thing about it was when they put VR with it. 

     

    Anyway. On topic. I have no idea on these posters just enjoying the ride

  9. Either Kings Island is really behind it or they had really really good timing with this ride theme if it’s anything related to Area 51. Can you imagine how happy the powers that be would have been when the Area 51 stuff started becoming a thing and they already had the plans for the new ride/area in the works. 

     

    Anyway ive just been enjoying the teasers every day. I have no real speculation or thoughts on them.

    Maverick is a great ride but it's what?  12 years old and it still has a fair amount of down time every day.  

    That's a huge consideration when chains are choosing manufacturers.  

    And Diamondback is 10 years old and has seen a fair amount of downtime especially this year. I think people just like to overlook the B&M issues for some reason. I love both and do not care that much about the downtime as I am not the park.

    Cedar Fair’s legal department can kick rocks.  Read up on the regulations for yourself.  Just because they ban the use of drones IN THE PARK doesn’t mean someone can’t fly one over it.  Kings Island (or any property owner, for that matter) does not own the airspace above their property.  

    And like I said, this site catering to every whim of Kings Island, while claiming to be an independent site, is disingenuous at best.

    It’s in the mods and admins best interest because it keeps them invited to events and media just like TPR. 

     

    The funny thing here is I agree with posting whatever because it’s not Kings Islands page but I understand why they do it the way they do
