Did anyone read on Screamscape about a possible renaming of the Fairly Odd Coaster to GrandSon of Beast?

EDIT:: Dang it welchce, you beat me too it!

Just pull out the old Beastie signs and stick them back up. You couldn't ask for a more perfect name for a kiddie coaster anyway. Which is exactly why I still call it that!

i dont think a pink\ purple beast would look right

Why not? It's been yellow, green, blue and purple through the years... ;-)

Yes it has always been a fan of the pastels

So it's time to try red.

No, not red. Then, you'll have some on here complaining that KI has too many red coasters...oh wait, they already are.

One is too many?

(Taking into consideration that the new one isn't open yet.)

Even though it hasn't opened yet, I am already hearing grumblings about it being red. Now, you open the new ride which is red, repaint the FOC red, you have Firehawk which is a shade of red, then there would be three total. Not that I really care, as long as the coaster is kick butt.

As stated in the other thread, I talked to some very credible Kings Island officials and they asked me to assure you that there are no plans to change the name of the Fairly Odd Coaster or any ride in Nickelodeon Universe.

How can it be with the stockpile of...oh why do I even have to say it again? You know what I'm going to post. And yes, Beastie has one of those too. I have a strong preference for riding it when it's off. Last October was a lucky month, and I rode it several times.

And even then, the poor beastie has been reprofiled....missing a bunny hill, and a tunnel, too, for that matter....whilst the similar ride at Kings Dominion has had no such changes...

I think you mean a fairy hill.

On a serious note, the changes sadden me. It's a classic and shouldn't be changed. The tunnel is no biggie but the hill?

Better Luck next time. LOL

They never should have renamed that ride. Even though all the others got Nickolodeon names that one should have stayed the same.

And if they hadn't renamed it, it'd be Scooby Doo. And still have to be renamed...unless they had bought some licensing rights again.

IMO The Beastie was the very best name it could have. It was unique and tied that particular coaster to the park with a very special (and very cool) name. It should have remained The Beastie forever, and would have required no licensing to do so, hence the reason that it should be returned!

The rails used to be orange and the rest that purple color, http://www.rcdb.com/ig72.htm?picture=1 .

and just 2 years ago we where all grumbling that KI didn't have any red coasters.

they should paint it a natural color.

I think it'd look great with a natural brown, or a bright blue like Scooby at KD.

I hate scooby doo's color scheme.

I wonder how it looked when it was yellow when it opened!

^Cool, the park was so less crowded those days.

Not really.

^I mean as in ride quantity, not people.
