  1. There are more than 3 Vekoma flyers in the U.S. Six Flags has the Batwing in D.C. and I believe others in other parks but they may not be Vekoma. This is actually what irked me that this was placed in K.I. Every Vekoma Flyer aside from its paint job is exactly the same. I feel like the park is above getting carbon copied seconds. I understand that they were in a bit of a financial jam, wanted to get more out of their present assets, and needed a quick fix with SOB being out of commission, but I wish K.I. would have gotten something a little more unique. Tatsu looks sweet out in L.A. If they wanted a good flyer, should have thought a little bit more in the long term and gotten a B&M model. Just my opinion Not doggin on you, but i doubt the GP really cares. I mean i have never ridden a flying coaster untill Firehawk, and i LOVED it. Yea Borg is the same, but for most people that cant/havent been to Carowinds (i dont know where the 3rd vekoma flyer is) this is there chance to fly. I think it is a great addition to the park, and i doubt that we would have gotten a B&M flyer in anyway, especially with all the changes that the park had been going through
  2. I am going Tuesday, so ill will post here if it is open or not
  3. Comparing Space Mountain to FoF is like comparing AE to Rock 'N Roller Coaster... apples to oranges. IMO, Space Mountain or BTMRR is better than AE and Rock N' Roller Coaster is better than FoF. People on here have been complaining about how rough some of the rides are and every roller coaster at Disney is very smooth and well kept. How can you say that CF is dedicated to KI when they've owned it for little more than a year? And you're talking like if Disney would've bought KI instead of CF but this is talking about if Disney would buy CF since that's apparently what they are looking for. If Disney would buy CF then we'd still have Firehawk, a repaired SOB, and FoF (where would it go?). IMO, you have too limited of a view of the Disney Company from the one time you visited and most of your opinion has come from what other people say. What i said if you would have READ my post was if Disney had bought the Paramount parks instead of CF then we wouldnt have Firehawk, and SOB would be SOL. I know Disney is looking at buying CF, thats a givin, thats why we are all posting here. I was only stating that we shouldnt all praise Disney, and we shouldnt want them to buy CF. CF has only owned KI for a year, and look at the pros^^^ I personally do not want Disney to buy CF. If i want a Disney experience i will go to Disney, but if i want to have fun with friends at a theme park i go to KI. P.S. If you want Scooby to become Lilo and Stich then for all means let Disney buy CF, but i would rather look at Nicktoons and HB stuff than Disney stuff.
  4. I might be going (if i can get off work) I will most likely wear my brown Screamin Chickin shirt, or my white Smokey and the Bandit shirt, so u guys know who i am!! haha
  5. Its funny to think that this sweet rollercoaster is only one year older than me!!
  6. I have only been to DisneyWorld (the one in Flordia) once and i will say i liked it...once. The only rides i enjoyed were Spacemountian (although i was spoiled with FOF so i didnt enjoy it as well) Tower of terror, and Aerosmith Rockin rollercoaster. I would rather have KI as KI, not Disney's Kings Island. I first visited (in 97) KI after Paramount/Viacom/CBS took over and I enjoyed it. I think that CF is going to do a great job with KI and i would hate if another company takes over and puts KI on the backburner. I know that CP is CF's crown jewel, but they are dedicated to KI. I mean we got 2 keep our FOF, they repaired SOB, and we just got Firehawk. 3 major pluses that would not have happened with CBS, and if Disney would have bought it instead of CF, we would not have Firehawk, and SOB would be SOL. FOF would have stayed, but would be called space mountian. IMO, i think Disney would be worse than Paramount/Viacom/CBS if they took over KI. And thats saying alot since P/V/CBS took out King Cobra, and didnt give a crap with ride placement (see IJST and TR:TR)
  7. Sweeet Deal The Beast is pretty sweet at night, i am going on tuesday and i hope i get at least 5 rides on SOB lol I have to ride at least one night ride on both father and son. And keep our fingers crossed that lines aren't superlong!!!

    Oh how i miss King Cobra... Delirium is ok, but i wish that it would have been put in where Days of Thunder is now, or hell where Flight Commander used to be! To bad they couldnt fix up the Cobra and re-unleash it!!

    Cobra

    Boy i hope not... Oh well i guess i will have to wait until 8407!!
  10. Hey guys this is my 2nd post on this site! Anyway do u think they will take us to the King Cobra boneyard? I think this sounds like an awsome treat for anyone that has ever wanted to see KI in a diffrent way. Thanks for making this happen! And dont worry i will be there!
  11. King Cobra is what i miss most. I only got to ride it once... IMO King Cobra kicks Deliruim's @$$
