One thing that excites me is that this font/style

Reminds me of this:

Those two fonts look extremely similar. I wouldn't be suprised if they were the same.

EDIT: I was beat to it... :(

  • 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 ;-)

Does this mean you think a part of that attraction is coming back or some form of it? Indyguy trying to understand what you are thinking about in your comparison.

I really hope they dont bring that back.

If they do bring it back, nobody said it had to be the same exact monorail :lol: They would probably just get a whole new monorail

I wasn't necessarily just meaning the monorail. I think that the whole theme of that area is interesting, and a new jungle-type themed attraction is something that I think would be a great addition to the park.

To see the level of animatronic that our park is willing to invest in, one need look no further than that pink bat in The Crypt. You wanna see a dinosaur moving like that as you sail past on a monorail?

Just thinking out loud!

Or maybe they are going to re-model the SOB like they did for the Texas Giant at Six Flags.

Guys..."new for 2011". The park opens in less then two months.

The website didnt say its new for 2011, just that their is "Something Big is Coming".

Then in the video they don't exactly say New in 2011.<BR><BR>Instead he says "This year at Kings Island bleep" could be "This year at Kings Island you will see construction begining on..." whatever it may be

Well, on the site with Don's teaser video, it does say (or at least it did say) "2011 teaser."

Well I guess we will have wait and find out friday.

maybe were thinking to hard about this.

has anyone thought that they could actually be remodeling and re-theming the crypt to some kind of dinosaur adventure?

just a thought.

Given the fact that you would be moving past it at a controlled speed and would only see said animatronic for a couple of seconds (versus having it on a pedestal in a queue line and making guests stay in one spot to see it), it's honestly not that big of a problem. Not to mention the company that built that prop (and several other similar companies) makes some truly remarkable animatronic pieces for just about any occasion, and at a price far less expensive than what Disney and Universal shell out (although, on the flip side of that, said props have a lower quality than a Disney/Uni AA).

Sorry, after rereading the previous post. This post is irrelevant.

Love, FOFreak :)

Tie a red ribbon around the old oak tree.It's been three long years...(Terpy is rubbing off on me.)

^ That does seem to look like Coney Mall where the cinima was (proably spelled that wrong). But to tell the truth that teaser background looks more like wood to me then mud.

when a friend of mine saw the video yesterday, there first thought was

way to stay classy don with the dirty mouth.
, i nearly coudnt contain myself cause i never thought that till he brought it up. laugh.gif

Hey, I don't know whether or not it's been reposted again as I didn't take the time to review the last few pages. But the banner is up again.

IGNORE THIS POST! :D

kthx.

Has anyone noticed that the backgrounds on the "Something big is coming" is different on the main page and the teaser page.

On King's Island's home page.

And on Teaser page.

somethingnew.jpg

And if you look in the right side of the animated banner on the page there are dinosaur scales like ones you would see down the tail.

Something I've noticed, with all the WindSeeker/Coney photos being posted by the park I've realized that a section of coney has not been photographed at all, weather it be by chance or potentially there doing more construction / demo then we really realize.

This photo represents 3 locations of interest.

Red = The abandon Coney Potato works food stand along with the abandon Flight Commander queue line. This area hasn't been photographed at all, which makes me wonder if they are doing construction/demo at this location secretly. I'm more interested in what they do with this area more then anything.

Yellow = Flight Commander ride pad / Euro Bubbles along with the grass field once occupied by Cinema 180* / Lazer Tag. This area isn't photographed often in the construction photos which seems strange.

The red and yellow seems like a perfect spot for a Wild Mouse type coaster.

Well, on the site with Don's teaser video, it does say (or at least it did say) "2011 teaser."

To be fair, the teaser IS posted and teasing during 2011 :) And his video does say "Kings Island Teaser2011-1"
