beastforever398 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Is this just me or does anyone else think that X-Base is perfect for a $40 million dollar expansion like they did with Action Zone in 99' It could use a few new rides and maybe a resteraunt and some restrooms. I'm not talking anytime soon. Probably like in 6 or 7 years or so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beastforever398 Posted June 16, 2010 Author Share Posted June 16, 2010 I don't know, that barn might be for important storage... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster_junky Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 i'm pretty sure that those "stupid barns" are used for wooden coaster maintenance, i don't see them going anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CedarPointer Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I'm also pretty sure that those "stupid barns" could be moved if necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pillsberry123 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Yes/Yes/Screaming Swing I could see it being the next expansion. I don't see it happening all in one season, and I don't seeing it happen within the next 3 years, but it will happen eventually. I vote for a Screaming Swing since it's something different than what the park already has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster_junky Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 yes/no/enterprise i really want a screamin' swing, but since the other two attractions in x-base have more of a secret government training feel to it, i voted for an enterprise, kind of like the g' force test that astronauts and some pilots go through, making it, in my mind at least, the easiest to tie into the current theme of the area.

ZukoGirl Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 If they did expand it it would be interesting to see what that put in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahank Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Yes - No - Screamin' Swing Not only would I like to see a screamin' swing at Kings Island, I think it would be a pretty likely addition. Cedar Fair has recently installed at some of their parks, so I could see one coming to Kings Island. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cormaster Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I think they should call the area "no fly zone" since Firehawk and Flight of Fear seem to have constant problems and high wait times! Yuck, worst part of the park! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coney Islander Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Its a good idea, but I believe they should perfect KI's 6 other sections, before they start a new one. Or at least fill in the empty Coney Mall space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Millennium Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I hope it doesn't look as bad as Action Zone does 10 years after they expand it, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dvo Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Doesn't anyone remember KI's last attempt at an Enterprise? Skylab was down for maintenance all the time until its removal for... games. I think the climbing wall came first, then the Virtual Reality simulator. Forget the Enterprise and get a Skyhawk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Other parks had very reliable standard models of the Huss Enterprise. Kings Island had to get a giant one [Skylab] (which was very reliable for many years, until near the end). Does that sound familiar? Well, all but that last part...which in the otherwise analogous case is somewhat reversed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dbfan Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I used to love those remote controlled cars. They used to have those everywhere. My favorite was the boats, I believe in Oktoberfest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hfbldprince Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 The Dippin Dots guy told me to think big. He says Cedar Fair is miffed at Six Flags and wants the world records back for the tallest and fastest coaster, and that you can see land being cleared out back behind FH if you look hard enough. Can anyone bring binoculars to KI today and take a look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplehaze Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Yes I will cause I will be there... lol But a more serious question of sorts, who owns the green houses and pond behind GWL? Is the CF property? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beastrider97 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Yes/No/Screamin' Swing I really want X Base to be expanded. A restraunt like La Rosa's could be good there. Better than the stand that's there now that always has the slowest service in the whole park... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
