The Interpreter Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Ever hear of a five year plan? By careful watching, you can see what is doomed. Of course, Great Adventure used to make it really easy. During Fright Fest, they'd hang a huge black spider on the side of a doomed attraction. Inevitably, the following year, it'd be gone.

ObiPugs Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 I'm sure something is planned for that space. I can't see KI tearing down SOB until something was planned. Cheaper to do everything at one time instead of bringing in equipment twice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 I'd bet anything the "equipment" will be brought in at least twice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Odd. I've been around this business more than 40 years. I have NEVER heard that quote used. Not even once. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle100991 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Son of Beast 2.0? I just have a feeling we have not seen the last of a roller coaster with a Beast theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I'd be shocked and amazed if that happened. You didn't see the Hercules name reused at Dorney. Nor The Bat reused at Kings Island. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Let's take the park at it's own words at the time. No decision had been made concerning Son of Beast. It was a Haunt prop. Nothing more. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohiocolts Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 ^I got a picture of it. I don't have time to post it tonight thought. It's just part of the side of one of the old red/yellow trains. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterOhio Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Has there been any talk about how a section of the MCBR already torn down? You can see if from Top Gun lift hill (at the top) There is also a crane at Kings Island currently for SOB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KI FANATIC 37 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I highly doubt that equipment will stay at Ki for their next big attraction. If this was true, they would have probably already announced the new ride/coaster. Just my thoughts, could always be wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Meyer Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 The brake run and NOT the rose bowl? Somebody was wrong. It looks like, ahem, hurricane damage... Alright alright. I'm sorry for being so high on myself there. Oh well I was close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterOhio Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 For all you know, if they where building a new ride or attraction in replace of Son of Beast they would have already torn the entire thing down. Not that little section on the break run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongliveKingsCobra Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I think we should merge the two topics. There are too many SOB topics. Why can't photos of SOB be locate here in the official SOB to be removed page? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
