KI FANATIC 37

I was just about to post that. It looks like an atomic bomb went off back there. It will look a lot different next year!

110% Son of Beast. The last time I rode it was opening day 2009. I would love to have one last ride on it to say goodbye.

Good idea. I use a drop of motor oil on pocketknife blades to keep them looking nice; I don't know why I didn't think of that for this application as well! They decided not to make the wood available for purchase. I know this because I bought the wood and track and we got the call to verify my track and they said the wood was not available for purchase and they would not be sent out. That includes even if you called the first day because I ordered mine on the first day as well... I wonder why they did this?

Only the mods can delete the thread, but no worries, your still learning! Welcome to KIC! Hope you enjoy the site!

^ Hahaha Why? And great video Ohiocolts, thanks for sharing!

Don, why does the park want to keep the station for Son of Beast? Dont get me wrong, I have great respect for you and the park but I really think that this is a poor choice and may make that part look "less tidy" and not as attractive. I understand the situation with Wolf Pack but couldnt you move it? This happened with the Crypt also and I feel as if the park is just wasting space. Please do not take this as an insult more of just a respectful question.

The station will not be dismantled along with the ride. I was told this by Don in front of Tower Drinks yesterday. I stand corrected. Thank you for clarifying this. Why would they leave the station for yet another Haunt Attraction? The Crypt is gone but they still left the building, and now SoB will be gone but the station will just stay there. This is just me I think this makes our park look less attractive and more crowded. I hope they reconsider this.

Did anyone else notice that Flight Decks sign was gone on Sunday? This may be something but it ma not be. I just saw it and thought, well. hmmmm, thats interesting. I dont know if this is normal of not (probabaly not) but...

I cant believe I didn't see any of you all day! Even though I was with my friends I had all the intentions say hello to at least some of you! Great TR!

Wow....I havent been to KI for a few weeks...Thats ALOT of difference since last time I was there. Not much left, When its all gone, All that will be left is the station and the trees that outlined it. The station will be dismantled along with the ride. I was told this by the lady at the top of the Eiffel Tower yesterday.

I took a lot of pictures from the Eiffel Tower yesterday. I will hopefully get them up soon.

Don is like please!! I just want to forget it was ever here!!

Hope they have Coke Zero! This is great news in my opinion!

I just hate the instructional video they play occasionally. "Diamondback features unique, stadium style seating that allows all rides unobstructed views. When you get to the station, you will be assigned a number"....etcetcetc. I dint mind the music but this kills me.. I can mouth it to myself everytime it comes on word for word.

It was just reuploaded...with no music.

Kings Islands Youtube channel just posted this, wanted to show you guys... This is the new video that was reuploaded by KI. It is the same thing but with no music

I am sort of nervous that this future park expansion is not a roller coaster. I know that some of you want a new area but I really want a Giga....

There is a very good website for almost all amusement park rides and coasters. Let me try and find it real quick. I found it while looking for some Son of Beast posters.

I was thinking the same thing! I would of liked to known what part of the ride the track/wood came from. But Im not arguing, Im just pleased the park did this for the coasters fans!

Ordered my track and wood today. Cant wait to get these things in and see them!

Don, is the wood and bolts framed as well? EDIT: Just to let you guys know, Son of Beast is now defunct on RCDB.

It's on twitter. It's well worth the money. It's framed and all.

Sorry for the double post. Don, is there a time frame that you can give us for when this "auction" will begin?

NowI feel like I will need to check back here every waking minute to be one of the lucky people who will be able to purchase those. Thanks Don.

I dont see anything wrong with that. I do that all the time. In my eyes it makes it easier for guests/members to understand the information that is given.
