Cedar Fair did a coaster conversion with mantis a B&M standup that will be a floorless coaster here in a couple months.

I lost my iPhone last year at Kings Island, used my friends iPhone and tracked it, it was on the move. It went from the festhaus to Banshee. ( I rode Banshee earlier that day). I walked into the Banshee exit while having it play sound. asked the ride op about the phone and they ended up having it. I have no idea how it ended up out of my pocket. Or ended up at the festhaus at one point. I'm happy I got it back tho.

For rollercoaster addition id like to see a b&m floorless or a Intamin giga. ( Not a floorless 300ft B&M. ) for flats I'd would love to see an enterprise, Ferris wheel, or a trabant since Coney Island made the poor decision of removing theirs. As for Soak City I'd like to see more slides, or better yet a water coaster.

Not that the cost of a 30 million dollar oversized Diamondback had anything to do with this. Hint : FURY 325

a fly over x base would be pretty cool, would definitely play in with the theming.

this looks like it provides more airtime than Diamondback.

INTAMIN fanboys still dreaming..

plans to add an Intamin giga coaster in the foreseeable future?

You mad bro?

No need for a dive coaster at the point, there about to have the cream of the crop with a B&M floor-less coaster.

mike nugent could probably use one of these after that sorry of a kick... This is a joke if you don't want to be scared go attend snoopy's halloween party.

I think Holiday World can afford way more than what there being credited for, the park is consistently packed. This purchase is no suprise, the fact that its a launched wing rider tho is a big suprise on B&M's part YAY For B&M! 2 decades later now we are catching up!

My opinion on the coasters you stated that need attention: Back lot Stunt Coaster = Repair the helicopter hydraulics, and fire affects. Have the splashdown refilled, and without the water effects to prevent corrosion. The empty pool just looks ghetto to have water in it at least would be nice. Boo Blasters boo hill = needs to be completely rethemed, I liked Sonofbeast2.0's idea of targets shooting back with the cart spinning maybe have a point in the ride were you faceoff other carts. Flight of Fear = Needs lights replaced, and should be by now mechanical problems that started two fires. Maybe new aliens placed into the garbage bag filled tubes in the station. Adventure Express =needs to be completely refurbished, a lot of it including the track needs paint, special effects such as the hammer men need repaired of replaced. lights need replaced. The Bat = Is great Kings Island did a fantastic job with the now defunct Flight Deck refurbishment. I would have went with a different paint scheme IE: darker supports, and black trains. other than that I'd leave it as is. Race for your life Charlie Brown = to me is fine as is. I'm going to add a coaster that I personally think needs attention The Racer = Sections of the track need replaced, or repaired and the supports need to be repainted. This may be expensive and time consuming but has been done recently to the sister park Kings Dominion's Rebel Yell. Maybe have promotional times during the year were Blue Trains are turned backwards. ( kinda like Six Flags does with Batman: The Ride ) Overall I think as far as cost for these refurbishments would be= BLSC: less thank $500k BBBH: $2-4 million FoF: less than $50k AE: less than $500k The Bat: $0 RYLCB: $0 Racers: $1-2 million

Raptor at Cedar Point has very uncomfortable restraints, and the coaster is vary loud while waiting in line when im trying to have a conversation with friends. Banshee by far is the best inverted coaster I've ridden.

Tower gardens, or the field behind the eifle tower would make a great place for antique cars.

Im not sold on the fact that this might be a maze, last year that path was used for The Beast's line overflow. Its going to be a mess to get back to my favorite coaster in the park, if that's the case this fall.

This coaster is going to feature inversions most likely. B&M Floorless would be tight.

Seeing a 200ft+ Beast of a wooden coaster sitting dormant from 2009-2012. Banshee not having storage bins, and having to pay for a locker for a 3 minute ride. Rain Delays, at Kings Island tend to be over exaggerated by park management.

there are also coasters that pushed the envelope and ended up being a success, Millenium Force, Magnum XL200, The Beast, Flight of Fear the mailman pushed the envelope and many more.

SHEW, I've been saving these ones just for that.

Its a B&M coaster

They picked a horrible time of year to do it, during the spring. "Traffic problems getting into KI" will be a forum in 2015

Typical Intamin, Oh wait..
