calakapepe Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Photo from Kings Island's Instagram. http://instagram.com/p/kxiGAkOODk/ I see something that makes me think of StoneHenge. B"Ancient"B©1 I think it would have been better to leave the wood its natural color instead of painted it grey. Nah, churches will at least have all wood stained or something! And if not, it's usually, from my experience, a naturally darker wood than pine. We don't want our ride to look like its materials came fresh out of the nearest Home Depot. 4
SOBwasaSOB Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 I just don't know how Stonehenge would relate unless they made it an international themed area, which could actually work with the viking ship and Festhaus (spelling?) nearby. It would look cool though. 1
steveinphoenix Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 I see they have put up the wingwall now.

We don't want our ride to look like its materials came fresh out of the nearest Home Depot. I basically attempted to convey the same message, but you did is soooo much better. For reference: That doesn't look like super high quality wood, that has been finished or should be... I think they made the right call to paint it. 2

LordSkippy Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Okay, pot.(That is what we in the business call "irony.") 3
steveinphoenix Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Does anyone have any up to the minute pics of the station? The side where the train exits? 1
The Interpreter Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 At 12:10 AM on a Tuesday, up to the minute? I think it can safely be said. No. Every photo was up to the minute at the time it was taken. Your best (only?) bet for now is to ask Mr. Don Helbig. Nicely. 9
thedevariouseffect Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Pleeeeeeeeeeeaaseee Pretty pretty pretty pleeeeeaaasssee 14
upstop Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 It appears that concrete has been poured in Oktoberfest. 1
Coasterama Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 If you would all please turn your attention to this website: http://www.fox19.com/category/208755/fox19-skycam-network-Banshee-cam-at-kings-island-mason I believe you will all find this intriguing. 3
LongTimeLurker Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Nice find. You can definitely see more of Action Zone. And it has a 1-hour time lapse. 5
Delirium2018 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Coasterama what is there I didn't see anything.
thegajone Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Coasterama what is there I didn't see anything. I don't think anything in particular, just a slightly different camera angle that may be a bit clearer. 1
stashua123 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Coasterama what is there I didn't see anything. You can see they tore down part of the stunt crew grill.
Delirium2018 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Ah! I see it! But wait! They are removing the Stunt Crew Grille! I guess no more Slaughterhouse...
thegajone Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Coasterama what is there I didn't see anything. You can see they tore down part of the stunt crew grill. I'm not really seeing that, but it definitely looks like they tore up the ground in front of it. Edit: nevermind, I'm looking at the wrong building. I can't really tell what is going on with Stunt Crew Grille.
Nick_Plummer Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 What's that long black line of something near Congo Falls and Drop Tower?
TheBeast1116 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Not to get off topic, but does anyone on here want a 2013 Kings Island park map? If you did I wouldn't put them on ebay.
upstop Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 There is something wrapped in white plastic by Stunt Crew/ Chicken Shack and also next to Ice Scream by and under the first dive loop as well. 1
Gplez90 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 They have been paying very special attention to the top of that turn after the 2nd vertical since they've finished steel erection. 1
steveinphoenix Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Do you mean at the very back of the ride?
