  1. To those looking for the freestanding wall at the exit....the exit to Banshee is way at the back of the station, and, according to the rendering, the wall is not as high as the peak of the station roof. Therefore, the odds are it is there, but it cannot be seen from the tower and can only be seen when you approach the toilets. Take another look at the rendering: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/Banshee/the-ride/ride-information
  2. Found this picture and thought it was appropriate for this thread. It is from Scanting Photography, Oklahoma, found on the Huffington Post.. The three little girls are battling cancer. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/11/three-little-girls-with-c_n_5126370.html
  3. And then she asked "Does this rollercoaster make my butt look fat?", and based on her expression, and demeanor we can figure out the answer was "yes",...
  4. Regarding Delirium: maybe it's getting the MaXair color scheme, and the blue legs are just the primer, before the orange paint.
  5. Looks great!!!! It would be cool if KI had a "buy a tombstone" for charity auction. It would be cool to play a permanent part in the ride.
  6. I, for one, can't wait to ride Banshee....I hear it's a scream...
  7. Kings Island will be PUBAR this year. (Packed Up Beyond All Recognition). Get ready for it...get used to it.
  8. It's quite possible that they could use a storage area like the arcade building storage in Coney Maul....or they could build a new building altogether. I guess we will have to comb the park for clues when it opens.
  9. I wonder if that is fog that I see in areas around the Banshee queue on the KI webcam view?
  10. Action Zone circle is glowing like a fireball with lighting right now. Wow...it's bright.
  11. ^^ That's actually a good idea. Plus, I wonder where Slaughterhouse will end up?
  12. It depends on if I'm getting Blueberry Ice Cream or Larosa's Pizza that day...LOL
  13. The "Banshee" sign is up....but where is the claw going...It's still in the AZ circle. edit: the black truck is empty and near the newly erected sign, which makes me wonder....what's the blue thing in the circle?
  14. Look Ma, She's flyin! .....right now.... Testing again.
  15. She'll always be "Marsha - Marsha - Marsha!" to me.
  16. One train is sitting in the break run....possibly testing? edit: she's at the top of the hill now.
  17. "Yikes!" (jumping out of fear) "Big Droppy Thing number 1, looks too intense for me!"
  18. Looks like they have put a tarp roof over the frame near On Location. I think it's a tent like the one that was over the "timeshare offer" tent that was in front of Rivertown Pizza a few years ago.
  19. Wowwy....I'm guessing that the carousel worker might have been reaching under the moving platform. (I've seen this happen at our local carnival). Also I'm sure the high-diver gave an electrifying performance.
  20. Vortex used to dispatch rather uniquely, At one time, when you were travelling up the hill, you would pass the train ahead of you at the first cork screw. When did they discontinue this dispatch sequence?
  21. I wonder if the queue line will have shaded cover.....wouldn't it be cool if the queue was covered with something similar to the queue line at Walt Disney World's Haunted Mansion?
  22. Looks like the Speed-Rails are being assembled in the queue line today. edit: Plus supports for either a roof or an awning.
