ajwinters Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 I was walking on the left of the fountain near the Skyline and in the Thrill Gear shop window there is a model of a random rollerocaster. Any ideas of what it is? Or is it a new ride we are getting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanna Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 It's a model of a K'nex style kit- build your own roller coaster. I think they have the kit available in the shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajwinters Posted August 15, 2011 Author Share Posted August 15, 2011 Oh, that sucks. Cause that ride looked pretty sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsrattler Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Yeah, that model has been there for at least a year (however long it has been since Kings Island's Facebook Page had 5@5) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titan Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Yeah, it's a Coaster Dynamix set I believe. Which is basically a fancy K'nex set, I was thinking of getting one a while back. But they cost a lot of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdawg1998 Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 There is this store called "Coolest Toys on Earth" in Milford with that same roller coaster - I think it costs around $200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsrattler Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 You sir would be correct... http://www.coasterdynamix.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=products.tpl&product_id=43&category_id=3&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=54 .... but its out of stock right now on their website.

Oldschool75 Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 **EDIT** How many times will this topic be started. Not trying to be rude, but it is like the 3rd or 4th time within a year this topic has been started. I know the poster is new to the forum. Maybe KI needs to label this coaster toy and put a note that it is not a future coaster. lol *** Edit** Sorry I forgot, Welcome to KICentral. Wasn't complaining about the post, I just think KI needs to let people know that so they don't wonder and speculate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatar Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Welcome to KICentral ajwinters. If the park is going to show a new toy or model of a new attraction they usually will share it when they make an announcement. Brian5475E I agree this topic does come up every so often but when I did a quick search I did not find anything fairly recent, so if you can find one from before the park opened this year please share the link with me. I think we can give the newbies a bit of a break when we could not find a recent one with a quick search ourselves. I agree about a note on that model in the shop but I believe KI would rather see interest in it. Oh don't forget to welcome the new member too.

IndyGuy4KI Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 It is a cool looking coaster that really makes me want to take it for a ride when I see it. Welcome to KIC, ajwinters! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanna Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 I can understand the confusion, though. At a Haunt, I saw the lift of the Diamondback, the lift and nothing else- and lo! there was a construction worker standing underneath it, who took me to see a model of Diamondback that looked very much like the model in the toy store window. I thought the kit was the Diamondback model at first glance. (I think of that worker's pride in that coaster every time I'm on the lift of DB. He loved building it.)
