I 100% agree! I think it would be perfect for that plot of land. I can picture it just towering over the back half of Action Zone as you walk in.

I hope you’re going later in the year because I’m hearing it might not be open until mid June at the earliest.

I saw Mystic running back in early March with all 3 trains.

Looks like it’s replacing Paradise Island.

The more I think about it the more I want a S&S Screamin swing to replace Skyflyer next year. I love Screamin swings and I think it would be a perfect fit for Action Zone. I can just picture it towering over Action Zone with guests staring at it in amazement.

Since the drones are back I wonder if that means the family thrill attraction for 2026 won’t go in The Vortex plot since that’s where they launch the drones. Or construction won’t start until after August 31st which would likely mean a delayed opening in the spring.

Did anything ever happen with this? Still hoping for new trains.

I saw them cycling a few mornings ago. Opening day is right around the corner.

I doubt Mike would go for this but I wouldn’t complain if we got something like this. As long as it came with an Action Zone retheme.

I really like this concept. This is the best case scenario in my opinion.

Not really a loop but I think it would be really cool if instead of the turnaround we have now for Orion it was sort of a corkscrew element that twisted down into the speed hill. Give the ride a really unique element for a giga. I also don’t even know if it would be possible with B&M clamshells.

Did the 2023 one say Vekoma on it for Snoopy’s Soap Box Racers?

If this is a family thrill launch coaster like Big Bear Mountain with onboard audio I would be all for it. I love Big Bear Mountain at Dollywood. It’s actually my favorite coaster at Dollywood.

Kings Island won’t get a thrill coaster by 2030.

Has anyone been to the park recently to see if it is still there?
