TheBeast54 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I thought about this, but maybe this could work. KI could merge Xbase With Dinos Alive so that could make Xbase bigger. You could put a few flat rides in, like an enterprise, A Giga, and maybe even an RMC. Put some food stands and restrooms in there so guest dont have to go searching for restrooms in XBase. But that is just a thought. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Meyer Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I'd be happy if they repainted Firehawk because it's showing a little bit of green paint from the Geauga lake days. That should be part of their focus for 2019. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixohdieselrage Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I think the only major issue stopping them from doing this is the maintenance buildings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could connect the two if you had the path go down the existing maintenance road and built a jumper from the maintenance path to Dino's, although I think Dino's is getting demolished, purely because that would have been an easy opportunity for them to put the Antique Autos back there.

sixohdieselrage Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 @teenageninja Dinos contract was up, so that's why it was removed. Not because of the KMAA. Is that what you are saying? Your comment lost me. lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, I think it would have been really easy to put the Antique Autos on that path back there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upstop Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I still think the Dino’s trail could be repurposed for Halloween and Winterfest in some capacity. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree I think it would be more of a haunt attraction due to the excess of land that could be used as a haunted trail. Also they wouldn't have to remove any of those props during the regular season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should make that a new, heavily wooded new area of the park in the future. Add an Intamin Blitz that uses the terrain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
139Signal27 Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Personally, I'd like to see the area stay unused for a while. There are plenty of places throughout the park that could be renovated and improved. I'd like to see a more consistent quality standard brought to the established park before a large expansion occurs. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the IS renovation, I'm sure that we're going to start seeing more renovations and upgrades in the future. My personal opinion is that CF is going to put a larger focus on making KI a destination, similar to their progress with Cedar Point. KI already has a HUGE base of regional passholders, so it'd be a safe gamble. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said that they see Kings Island is more of a regional park; however based off of the additions and improvements the park has been receiving as of late I think that might be changing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonofBaconator Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 With the blueprints leaked and the over abundance of Xbase and Dinos land, do you think KI is planning on adding more to this area in the future? There's plenty of space from Firehawk and Dinosaurs Alive that isn't even touched by construction with exception to Firehawk's removal.

If anything, the chosen placement shows they aren't going to expand into that area. At this point, they'd have to move all or most of the maintenance buildings to do a real expansion. Not completely out of the question, but just not likely. They could have re-routed Lil Giga and made a lot more space for expansion there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdude86 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 They could still do small expansion in X-Base if they wanted by utilizing the open area to the left when walking in that would go behind FoF's photo booth/exit. Considering the photo booth is rarely ever open anymore they could even tear that down to open up the pathway more for an expansion with a flat and possibly a quick service food area. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
