New For 2017: Mystic Timbers!

[SonofBaconator 12405]

Would it be wrong to classify Mystic Timbers somewhere in between a family ride and a thrill ride?

[calakapepe 8128]

I pressume it wouldnt be wrong is all subjective anyways

[malem 19752]

Mystic Timber's airtime should put it firmly in the "thrill ride" category, though its 48" height requirement will make it accessible to more of the family than Diamondback or Banshee.

And we still don't know #whatsintheshed. The hype on that sure has died down.

We are now in the holiday season. I am guessing the focus is on Season pass sales for Christmas from the park and not so much of #whatsintheshead. I would wager that it will pick back up in January!

Adventure Express is a 48" "Thrill" Ride. So I would be for sure that Mysti will be a Thrill Ride.

I wonder if the weather is right, that it could operate during Winterfest? Oooo... it would be like sliding through a bobsled run!

[King Ding Dong 10162]

^ Well SFSTL plans on running American Thunder, but that is SIX.

[Rivertown Rider 1788]

I would classify it as a thrill ride fun for the whole family (over 48 inches tall).

I disagree that KI's wooden coasters are over the hill. I still get great rides on The Beast and Racer.

 

However, the engineering will be so decidedly different and will give an awesome new experience.

[SonofBaconator 12405]

So do you think they're going to do another overhaul of the map? I can't see how they can accurately place Mr. T on the map without the map being altered, but that's just me.

[calakapepe 8128]

Oh definitely. WWC will probably look very different. Instead of simply pushing things over,there gonna have to draw between what used to be a tightly drawn attraction

[steveinphoenix 1301]

It be nice if they overhaul the map, i personally like a park map to be a more accurate rendering of the attractions and not "overcartoony" in exaggerating the elements of the various attractions.

[SonofBaconator 12405]

Another thing, is there any confirmation of a possible gift shop? The last two Cedar Fair coasters we've got have had gift shops with their own merchandise. With all they're putting into the ride theming for Mr. T, it would be strange not to see it get it's own shop.

[teenageninja 1708]

Maybe that's what is in the shed!

[matt112986 857]

NOW YOU WILL BUY- cheap trinkets and t-shirts! Check out at AE.

[goettablitz 424]

I am really curious to see what the ride sign and entrance plaza will look like.  Given that Diamondback and Banshee both exit into gift shops I would say that the MT exit gift shop is a safe bet.

[calakapepe 8128]

I believe every brand new coaster out of Cedar Fair recently does so

What if the riders exit the train in the shed and walk through a dark house ride to the exit / gift shop?

I would be good with a Dr. Strange-ish tilt house exit. Not sure it would put me in the frame of mind to purchase anything.

^I know it can't be copied due to the patent rights infringement but how awesome would this be at KI just outside the MT gift shop or maybe a different version somewhere else in the park? I like how each coaster is on the menu and has it's own recipe/item.  Just a thought.....

The best part was the end saying to enjoy the coasters after you eat.  

[upstop 12260]

Lol! True ride the coaster.... barf it all up.... go back to Coasters Restaurant for more! On a serious note that would be an incredible attraction at KI! I'm sure there are ways to acquire the technology and recreate the concept legally.... by the way... no soup please.

Not sure if it will have a shot but expect a photo booth at the end. This being a cheaper, more family ride I don't think it will have a shop, maybe a shop like the one for Beast. If we don't get a shop id expect a photo booth like the one at Beast or Vortex
