  • Just a guess, but it may be something as simple as one of those animatronic dinosaur walk-throughs.

    All in favor of believing that Helbig was waiting for a KIC post to show up, before removing it to tease us, say aye...

  • Excellent points... but shouldn't it be "Stratosaur?" LOL ;-)

I've talked with Don enough to know he's arnry (so?). I bet he loves teasing us like this.

Well if it's for this year, I can't see what else it would be other than a dino-walkthrough. That would be fairly easy to set up.

Weird.

So I went back through KI's facebook page and I noticed the paw print in the snow, the line for the national red day thing, then I saw the people examining a blue print which fit perfect to the photo they made for national red day and it all fits, this will be a maze of some sort through the woods on either a cart that goes crazy fast or on a train or by foot of a Jurassic type situation.

I also have talked to Don, way more than I ever should have anyway he never seems angry, he is always so mysteries and quite. He is a great guy who really loves the park!

The only thing that goes against a dino-wlkthrough type ordeal is the phrase "turn the clock back on thrill"

A dino-walkthough is not thrilling, it's for 8-year-olds. Granted, it would be great for the kids, but certainly not a "thrill".

I am surprised no one has mentioned the teaser photo of the trees that are flagged for... something. Removal, perhaps?

What trees?

Above the teaser video, there is a tab titled "Photos" that you can click on. Those trees.

Well I know this prob ain't it but back when they first started building the park they color coded the tree's, some meant don't tear down some meant ok do it and some bans meant if you do your fired!! idk

ahhh. that wasn't there a hour ago!

This is great!

For one, I thought the video was extremely hilarious. "This year at Kings Island, *blleeeeeeppp!*". I applaud Kings Island for their continued jabs at the Enthusiast community, they seem to know what makes us tick and they're outrageous when they poke fun at us. :lol:

Secondly, I also applaud Kings Island at their marketing for this so far. Beginning with the footprint in the snow, which we all thought was meaningless at the time, then the National Red Day drawing, the famous "Planning" picture, now this. I have to say, they did a fantastic job teasing this one, whatever it may be.

As for my predictions on the attraction itself, that's a tough one. This is a very interesting situation they've made, and really unique. Marketing a big new attraction in the dead of the offseason, to arrive in the upcoming year, when all the buzz is about a ride already being built to open the same year? I'm clueless, to be honest. I could see this being anything from a walk-through attraction to a small roller coaster. Seriously. I'm stumped.

But man, this is very exciting! Can't wait until the 18th!

I believe he was saying Don is ornery not angry.

Did anyone happen to look at the photo posted? It's a bunch of trees with pink markers on them similar to those on the trees of Diamondback back during construction.

And the Banner where it says turn back the clock on thrill looks a lot like dinosaur skin. My guess is it's going to be the worlds longest dino walk through.

I have only seen Don look angry once. No time to search for the pic but it was the promo for DB when he was mock beating a co-worker with a bolt for DB. I think he could be bad ass if needed.

Ornery was the word. Spelling was the problem. Defamation of character was the misinterpretation.

Trevor's got my back:)

Just trying to get my post count up cuz that means I'm cooler (sarcasm, sorry for the double post).

Now see, everyone was second guessing me about seeing the banner the other day....

I told you so... ;-)

who wouldnt want to ride a giant chicken that bounces up & down...

...its a new carousel, finally my merry-go-square.

on a serious note, maybe:

The marked trees just adds to the questions. Are they for removal? If so, was the picture taken today? If so, this thing doesn't seem like a 2011 attraction.

All I got to say is that I think that video was very well played.

Here's an idea - announce a 2012 ride now and then offer a special 2 year season pass this spring.

The song in that video is permanently embedded in my psyche after only 32 seconds...

I believe they could be bringing back one of the ld roller coasters with a new look, because it says: "Turn back the clock on thrill" Hmmmmmmm! very interesting.

In the video, he says "world's largest" something twice. I wonder what that's referring to?

I believe they culd be bringing back one of the old roller coasters but with a new look

In case anybody cares....

Anyone have any idea what the background with the grassy meadow at dusk may mean?

^ "Turn back the clock on thrill" certainly fits that idea.
