kjkjkj Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I went to dent schoolhouse last night. They replaced the old playground scene with a new fall festival scene, that is now part of a second queue area. In one of the "festival" booths they have a sign called "Witch's Brew" and they have a car that I think is from the old Kings Island ride, Winnie Witch Cauldrons. 26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoddaH1994 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Looks like you found a real relic! Don't forget that if you like this sort of thing then you can also visit Jungle Jim's International Market for several more. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlondyRidesOn Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I remember the Winnie Witch Cauldron at Jungle Jim's in Eastgate. Probably the first time I had ever seen an old defunct Kings Island ride relic in person, besides the monorail at Jungle Jim's in Fairfield. Edit: Grammar, spelling. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIghostguy Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Which other old rides are at Jungle Jim's? I know of the Lion Country Safari monorail, but what else? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlondyRidesOn Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 There is also a snail statue that used to be in Hanna Barberra Land. However, it is not the one from the Enchanted Voyage. Blondy, who hopes you have a huh-huh-huh happy day. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhatTheBlazes Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I used to love that blue elephant fountain at KI when I was a kid. I was just at Jungle Jim's last weekend and didn't pay it enough attention to realize what it was! Fun to know, thanks 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectrum91 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I recall one of the cauldrons popping up on eBay five or so years ago. I wonder if that's by chance the one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingsislandfan1972 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I saw the Cauldron when I went to Jungle Jims, I recognized it from one of the pictures of the ride that I found online. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsislandfan1972 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Which reminds me, what did Kings Island do with the giant Reptar from the (former) Runaway Reptar roller coaster? http://m3.i.pbase.com/g1/99/410999/2/117024443.f1U9oCRu.jpg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectrum91 Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 I recall hearing it was broken into bits and scrapped. Unlike the smaller fiberglass figures of SpongeBob, Patrick, etc. (which are lying in fields and can be seen from satellite images), Reptar was probably a bit too big to save. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike the smaller fiberglass figures of SpongeBob, Patrick, etc. (which are lying in fields and can be seen from satellite images), Reptar was probably a bit too big to save. That's a shame. I loved that thing! I always thought it would be cool to bring it home, put it in my back yard and turn it into some kind of fountain or slide or something lol. I wonder what the neighbors would think when they looked out their window and saw a giant dinosaur in the back yard? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outdoor Man Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Some of those were probably proprietary and intellectual property of Paramount/Viacom (or whoever the successor corporation was) and it was likely that the contract stated that after use the Reptar would be destroyed. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIghostguy Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 If we are on the topic of Kings Island remnants elsewhere, then Heritage Presbyterian Church in Mason has an old German-looking trash can from International Street.

KIghostguy Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 The trash can at Heritage is one of the ones seen here, from the Kings Island 20th anniversary TV special from 1992. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XGatorHead 8904 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 A little convenience store down the street from my house had one of those until it caught on fire a few years ago. I just happened to be driving past the store and saw the fire department the putting the fire out so I pulled into the lot. Unfortunately the trashcan didn't survive. It was tough to watch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I believe I've heard that the light up stars on the highway side of EnterTRAINment Junction were from Paramount's Kings Island. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creed Bratton Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Sorry for bumping this thread, but I happened to find my way to Jungle Jim's Eastgate with Hoeter today. I had no idea that a piece of Winnie Witch Cauldron was located in the store....I naturally had to take a couple of pictures when Hoeter pointed it out to me. Also, just realized this is post #3,000 for me though it means little to nothing 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDMC01 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Random question: Where did you get that awesome shirt? Also, I believe that "Big Apple" sign behind you is from Kenwood Towne Center. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creed Bratton Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I actually got it for Christmas this past year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
