KI FANATIC 37 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 ^^Almost like an Inception Avatar. What would make it better is if its a picture of a picture of his avatar in the news. 3
SonofBaconator Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 That blueprint on the news looked nothing like the YouTube blueprint. 1
Cdeq Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 The tweet maybe saying what's they have gather are false
bmbillups Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 This kind of got skipped over because it was posted right before the blueprints were, but these were handed out at the park today when you went through the parking gate. I have one sitting on the floor right beside me And between this and the piles of rocks/iron fence that popped up today, it points to a graveyard, in my opinion. Does anyone else notice the diagonal stripes used in this piece as well as the teaser signs that was used on the sides of the SOB trains? Also notice the yellow color and eyes both similar to Son of Beast. Not saying this means anything but it makes ya wonder 4
Hoosierjtf Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 plus there will not be many more inverts being built. Do you mean in general, or right now? Designers build what the parks want. If a park calls B&M up and says, "We want this, this, and this, in an inverted coaster and only have X amount of room, can you do it?" B&M's response would likely be, "Our Batman model fits that description." If a park calls B&M and asks for a stand up, they will build it. Inverts are terrible..they are a 90's ride...only a moron in charge would spend $30 mil on one...if the lift hill goes through the loop, that is the definition of a gimmick... every Intamin is better than this ride they are building and it is not even debatable 2
Cdeq Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Can't wait till the announcement so we can match the hints with the ride 3

That's all I will say. 3
ohiocolts Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Funny how they decided to focus on our possibility of an Outlaw Run type coaster.
Rcoaster10 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 My video is done. About the name, I'm sure this has been said before, but Banshee would make perfect sense as it is announcing the death of SOB. 7

Elkman Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 It seems like a blurry picture is coming into clarity. Whether this picture is an illusion, or a close representation, we are in exciting times. Exciting Times = Having to read 14 pages to catch up on the thread you read earlier this morning. Or perhaps, getting 8 reminders of updates in the time that it takes to write and proofread a message. (And most of the time many those posts say the same thing , usually when new info gets released) Enjoy. And please get some sleep. Clicking the update button every two minutes for four hours is not healthy! 1

And your right there are plenty of intanims that will probably give a better thrill than this coaster, but that's only when Those intanim coasters are operating. 1
YoungStud Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I am hoping this is all a dream and I wake up and see intamin track in the parking lot. 1
locostitch Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 That blueprint on the news looked nothing like the YouTube blueprint. Um you do have a point 1

YoungStud Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I am sure that blueprint was a prop for the news story.

It has been said before Those were incline loops right if so that means it had 9 inversions
Tr0y Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I am hoping this is all a dream and I wake up and see intamin track in the parking lot. i hope we can all live that dream when Kings Island builds its first giga coaster. 2
SonofBaconator Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I am hoping this is all a dream and I wake up and see intamin track in the parking lot. Doubt it, Bro 3
Jr for Birdy Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I just ran out to my car, didn't even look at it today, figured it was same old same old. Being I just got home from KI, did I miss anything good without reading 30 pages?
geebs11 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Hi Guys! I've been lurking for the last 100+ pages....you rock! Anyways, I know alot of you posted about the eyes looking very 'Son of Beast' ish... for some reason....when I looked at them... I thought of the Raptor @ Cedar Point...not sure why..... I would however think it would be cool to have a backstory or theme behind the coaster....something about what used to 'lay in it's place' 2

TheLip2 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 MF would not get the capacity it gets without the 3rd train.millennium force will always be till this day the greatest intanim coaster of all time. It's forcefull, reliable, with great ride capacity, what more can be asked for in a rollercoaster? Millenium Force< I 305 2

geebs11 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 My video is done. About the name, I'm sure this has been said before, but Banshee would make perfect sense as it is announcing the death of SOB. I dig the video... I only wish it was actually that dark in that area.... You could add strange noises and really create a neat theme behind the ride.... But, they have way too much light over in Action Zone :-( Then again, this ride should be headed away from Action Zone....Flight Deck is actually quite dark...as is Adventure Express...so maybe it would be
locostitch Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Why do I have a feeling that the name Banshee was a diversion. This looks like a roller coaster called "The Beasts Rising"

SonofBaconator Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 I think it would be kinda dumb to base a steel coaster off of a wooden legend. And it would be more dumb to do this when the ride that previously occupied that space was indeed a wooden sequel
