JAHill Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Why isn't it red and black, since it's probably going to be themed to the red baron? But that would make sense. Red and black would really look out of place in the middle of the area, in my opinion. Quote

First one to get pics of this much needed paint work gets a lemonade from me sometime in the 2010 season. Quote
thekidd33 Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 If Reptar is getting a Woodstock theme that makes it unlikely that the Fairly Odd Coaster becomes Woodstock themed right? Is a return to The Beastie on the horizon? I hope so! Quote
Outdoor Man Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 one would hope that in their off season maintenance of painting- that some paint would find its way over to Flight Deck. Quote
sheikra_rocks Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 The people in the theme, paint, and naming departments all need to be fired. Quote
Diamondback FOF Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 I would definitely say that yellow paint looks new. I do like the color scheme, too. Quote
tycoonrebel7188 Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Upon further study of the picture, I very much agree with you Diamondback FoF. If you look at the right side of the picture you can see dark lines on the rails of the track where the wheels used to ride. Then if you look toward the center of the picture to where the paint appears to be new, there is no paint worn away. Quote
StalkerChick Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 one would hope that in their off season maintenance of painting- that some paint would find its way over to Flight Deck. *crosses fingers* i dont care what color they paint it. it could be neon green and hot pink for all i care as long as its painted! and i still think its too soon to assume the yellow is staying. time will tell. that picture isn't the most clear... with plenty of shadows hiding Quote
Tomkatt7 Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 I'm not convinced the yellow is a new coat of paint. The orange is, obviously. I think the track may end up being different than yellow when they are done. Quote
Coaster Kid Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 ZOMG I'M BACK!!!!!! But the coaster looks good orange and yellow kinda can get confusing to look at though maybe the track should go another color Quote
bkroz Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 I think Orange supports, sky blue track would be nice. Or, sky blue supports and yellow track... Snoopy just doesn't scream orange and yellow to me... I feel like it ought to have pale, pastel colors. Orange supports, sky blue track, and red trains. Quote
Jasper Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 I kind of like the new scheme. The colors seem to blend really well. Like Vortex's orange and blue scheme melds together really well. I think once this is done it will fit right in the area nicely. Quote

They are using all the Red and Black paint for the much needed work on Top Gun Only in our dreams....Flight Deck would show it's true colors, because, in my opinion bare steel/faded gray/ and overgrowth are not exactly the looks of a great coaster, but i have a feeling that it will remain that way for a while.

goofywdw Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Just in case any of you thought the picture posted was a fake... it's not. The coaster is actually a lot more visible from the road now. That is really the only thing new that you can see. Avatar's track does look a little bit empty though. I think they have taken Avatar off of the ride vehicle but I cannot be sure. Quote

My guess is that the former Avatar vehicle is in the maintenance shop for the time being. Quote
tycoonrebel7188 Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 ^Could be. That or the giant flat Ang on top has been removed. Quote
buckeyemaniac Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Just want to say what I had seen. I just looked up Cedar Fair on Wiki, and it said that Spongebob 4D will continue Daily in all former paramount parks for the 2010 season. I know Wiki isent always true, but can I get some input on this. Unless they get a new film reel then I can 100% guarantee that it will not be shown at KI again. Quote
CedarPointer Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Unless they get a new film reel Did some of the ride ops at AT get a little annoyed with SB? Quote
TheSonofBeast Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Unless they get a new film reel Did some of the ride ops at AT get a little annoyed with SB? actually, i just think it was going bad from being overused. there was a long while that they had to use a crappy 2d version of it... Quote
CedarPointer Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 actually, i just think it was going bad from being overused. there was a long while that they had to use a crappy 2d version of it... Sounds like they destroyed the original. Quote
KIBOB Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 I always thought that the movies in AT such as Spongebob were in digital, just the projector was getting worn out. Quote
buckeyemaniac Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Unless they get a new film reel Did some of the ride ops at AT get a little annoyed with SB? Lets just say that pieces of the reel are in many different places, and a lot of those places are not Kings Island. Quote
tycoonrebel7188 Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Just going to throw this out there, Canada's Wonderland had released the names of the rides that are getting rethemed for Planet Snoopy. http://www.canadaswonderland.com/attractions/category.cfm?ac_id=21 Quote
CincyMan98 Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 At least I like the logo for Boo Blasters on Boo Hill. That makes it a little better Quote
tycoonrebel7188 Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 I like it too. And according to Newsplusnotes The new Boo Blasters will allow riders to "meet up with Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin." If this happens with ours, I think it will turn out pretty cool. Quote
Skywriter Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 I'm happy with the name as long as the ride works properly like the guns work,objects move when you hit them,and score counts add up right. Quote
Coney Islander Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 I'm just hoping that they fix the guns so that you can see the laser. A little change like that could make all the difference for how 'good' the conversion is. It would be awesome if they made Fairly Odd Coaster The Beastie, and put Snoopy acting like a vulture where the old bird was. Edit: Replaced the original picture with actual comic strips. Quote
CincyMan98 Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Thats a great idea! That would really be perfect.....they could just do that without it being The Beastie. Quote
Coney Islander Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 If we ask nicely, perhaps Cedar Fair will place snoopy in the fashion of the original sign? Any avid Peanuts reader (like me) would love it. Quote
