SonofBaconator Posted September 24, 2018 Author Posted September 24, 2018 What I find interesting is that every now and then, Kings Island brings back old favorites on off years or after they add new coasters. The Bat, Flying Eagles (sort of), and now the Antique Cars have made a return to the park. Could it be possible that we're seeing a trend of resurrecting old KI favorites after the addition of newer attractions? Could we see the return of recaR, Phantom Theater, Kenton's Cove, and other old KI favorites in the future? 3 Quote
westcoaster Posted October 1, 2018 Posted October 1, 2018 other old favorites would be Sensational Quote
purdude86 Posted October 2, 2018 Posted October 2, 2018 Phantom Theatre, KCKC, and recaR are my top three wants for a return in that order. 2 Quote
lifetimecoaster Posted October 4, 2018 Posted October 4, 2018 King Cobra. I got to experience that, and really wish it was still around for my kiddos to experience. It was such a unique experience in coasters!! 1 Quote

BlondyRidesOn Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 The Clown Band- More roaming entertainment like in the 70s and 80s. Kenton's Cove Keelboat Canal- The big box of fun needs to go "International" Street- Maybe add some elephant ears to the menu since they have them at the Rivertown Funnel Cake stand, flags of the corresponding countries on the buildings. 7 Quote
kingsislandfan1972 Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 The giant slides that Kings Island used to have, I don’t remember them but my parents have told me all about them, I’m not quite sure when KI removed them. Quote
BeeastFarmer Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 I think the park has focused on IS quite a bit in the last couple of seasons. The lighting, the music and the stunt show. They got creative by putting potted plants on the lighting tower pedestals. I'd like to see the flags, some statuary and replace some or all of the grass with flower gardens. Fairly inexpensive and adds to what they already have. But I'm also happy with what we have and will stay content with it. 1 Quote
JubJester Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 Skyride. It would be nice to have on long Kings Island days. It looked so cool as well. I'd also would love to see King Cobra come back. I would absolutely like to ride it. 3 Quote

Yes definitely King Cobra, I remember it very rarely as a child never rode it but it was very unique because it was Kings Islands only ever stand up roller coaster. 2 Quote
OLFOF96 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 Skyride and 1st floor of the Eiffel Tower are among the more realistic I want back but as for dream things I would want back. Zodiac for sure. Tomb Raider the ride (With all the theming as original). Scooby doos Ghoster Coaster (Favorite ride as a kid). Phantom Theatre. Original Antique Cars! 3 Quote
flightoffear1996 Posted March 12, 2019 Posted March 12, 2019 We have a hard time getting our 6 year old on rides. He likes them but doesn’t like the tickle feeling he get in is stomach. The Ghoster Coaster would have been a perfect fit for him! He doesn’t like the Great Pumpkin coaster but he loves the the small kid coaster at Dollywood 2 Quote

I also think we need some more thrilling flat rides. Delirium and Drop Zone (I know, technically a tower ride) just do not always cut my "flat ride" fix. But WindSeeker is wonderful at night! 1 Quote

IndyGuy4KI Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 Not a bring it back, but can we get a tilt-a-whirl with whatever is going on in XBase? 2 Quote
Theoutdoorkid107 Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 1. TRTR making a return (unfortunately this won’t ever happen with the actual Tomb Raider theming) 2. Sky ride 3. SOB 4. Phantom theater cant really think of anything beyond that. But I leave you with this... ”Great memories never die and as years roll on and as days pass by in our hearts a memory is kept of those lost but Not Forgotten” -Anonymous 1 Quote

That would be neat, theme it to an alien spacecraft. There’s already own themed to sharks. So why not make them spaceships 4 Quote

medford Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 The cauldrons (or whatever they were called) I personally can't ride them, but I think every amusement park should have something similar to the Tea Cups. The Beastie...yes I know its still there, and I know it was originally the Scoobie Doo, but to me, it will always be The Beastie, and that it what my children have learned to call it. KCKC. Re-purpose the Tomb Raider building, and have the thing flow in and out. I'd even go so far as to add an element like the flume ride at Epcot used to have where you'd turn and go down a small hill backward. They could do a lot of multi-layered layout in there. Recar The Talking Tree They brought back The Beast foot prints, bring back the Votex ones (top gun might be a little awkward, but I'd settle for a nice Bat Logo painted back that way. German food in the Festhaus; talk to Schmidts and make it happen. You can have the Chinese side, the one area for pizza and what not, and the other side of that area for Schmidts. Winner. 6 Quote
Jamesv7 Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 I would love to see a the Ferris wheel return. 3 Quote

CoasterWorks Posted April 29, 2019 Posted April 29, 2019 Backwards racer, SoB themed roller coaster would be awesome if they named it something like Outpost425 or Outpost325, king cobra of some sorts, or sky ride 1 Quote
