King Ding Dong Posted February 9, 2018 Posted February 9, 2018 The way I figure it if they are different manuafacturers they will put extra care into it to make sure they go really fast. What company wants a 20-30 year legacy showing side by side the competitor is better? 2

Maverick44 Posted February 9, 2018 Posted February 9, 2018 How about dueling Giga coaster? That would be crazy! I won't mention mfg's because this is a giga thread not what mfg is better haha 1 1

IndyGuy4KI Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 I am guessing you would find a lot of KIC members at that protest. So, I know @LoadAndGo had a pretty cool color scheme a while back for a giga. What is yours? I would like a blue track and white support combo similar to Gatekeepker, but a little darker blue. 3

IndyGuy4KI Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 If green I would want it to be a bright green. Even if it was Barbie pink I would still ride it. 1
Creed Bratton Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 I'd love to see a color not certainly seen at KI or CP.... Maybe a true purple track and black or white track. I'd also like to see a bright green or orange track. 5
Tera Ryzing Posted February 11, 2018 Posted February 11, 2018 A giga with ejector air and not floater. 2

Black and white could look really good if the giga is in X-Base, but it might just be because I'd love to see this coaster have a flight-based theme. I think it's fair to say that KI is no longer in need of red-hue coasters, considering Firehawk, Diamondback, and Banshee all are either red coasters or have elements of red-based colours (specifically Banshee with its berry/fuschia-ish colour). 2

As long as it's not a main color already seen at Kings Island multiple times on coasters. 3

Creed Bratton Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 I'd have to go through my list and see what exactly they are....but I've not been on Blue Fire or Helix. 1

I'd rather it be Mack for sure if not Intamin. Just my own opinion. I would like a military themed Giga in X-base someone said dark green with tan supports and I dig it. Orange track with black supports or Dark purple track with black supports would be nice as well. I would even love a really bright neon green. If it did go into X-base do the military theme with dark green track and tan supports, call it Commando. I have built a coaster like this in Planet Coaster, I should make a video of it but im too lazy... 4
King Ding Dong Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 The marketing options are endless with a name like Commando. I love it. “Go Commando this Summer Season at Kings Island!” #GoCommando sure beats #whatsintheshed 4 5
Codyfryguy Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 To expand on the military theming the trains could have a humvee type theming with camouflage 3
King Ding Dong Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 Are there any coasters with camouflage themeing? The gift shop would sell tons of camouflage booty shorts with “Go Commando” plastered on the rear. Think of the per caps with that one! Of course a “certain someone” would have to go and feminize it with an ie nickname. Commie. 3 1
