The track that we KNOW is MCT is still sitting out in gray / primer per the above picture. (See right, next to large pole) Yeah, I doubt it myself. We know they are going to start at the station area and that track is just sitting there. Now we have the drop backbone piece sitting there as well. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense to have completed track for other sections. They have some Chinese coasters opening next year as well, so I don't think we can call this one until we see the ID markings. 2

silver2005 Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 I'd also like to bring up that I think San Diego has imposed a height restriction on Sea World, so they can't build very high. If they're getting a small dive coaster, CSF should knock that out quick. Though, I also think B&M has a steel plant they use out west. I don't think CSF manufactured track for Tatsu or Silver Bullet. 2
sixohdieselrage Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 @Driver8rws It's a bigger treeline than it looks. It looks smaller from The Beast's side than the clearing side. I've seen both sides. 4

KI FANATIC 37 Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 I like that blue a lot. I don't see white supports though; did i miss a picture? 2

It’s a launch coaster, all the rumors point at premier. 26 minutes ago, silver2005 said: Though, I also think B&M has a steel plant they use out west.

It makes no difference where in the world the ride will be located. 6
DustinTheNow Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 With those colors, they minus well call the coaster — Wildcat! 2 2

fryoj Posted June 6, 2019 Author Posted June 6, 2019 Well, they are paying an unknown, but large amount of money just to let a lot of people down, so... UK it is! 1 1

The track that we KNOW is MCT is still sitting out in gray / primer per the above picture. (See right, next to large pole) I suppose it *could* be for Sea World San Diego's Mako dive coaster, but I doubt it. It was shown as having more of an aqua or seafoam green track color. There's also the possibility of an international project, but I don't think any track has been recently identified for such a project. Construction is in full swing on Project X and Hershey's hyper has been underway a while, so I would wager that this is KI track. Edit: I missed like a full page because the browser didn't refresh, excuse me being late to the party. I hope supports aren't orange, lol. 2
DustinTheNow Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 heres some interesting (and blurry) images from Coaster Studios Video. The Lift Spine (L16-1 is seen unpainted, and with out primer) The blue track is what it is! 7

thatguyfromohio Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 There’s a massive hole dug, guessing for the spline of the lift hillSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 10 1
LovinMeSomeBanshee Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Wow, they're really coming along with the footer holes for the brake run, turnaround, storage shed and station area. 3
thatguyfromohio Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Kings Island is legit in my back yard, so I can always come get tower pics if you guys want daily updatesSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 7 3
flightoffear1996 Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Don’t you think they would make the supports first versus the track ? 2
Logan Goddard Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 So did a quick check on RCDB the only other coasters B&M are making for 2020 are Mako, the SWSD dive, which looks to be much lighter almost Leviathanish colors. Hersheyparks hyper, and a Wing coaster for China. Can we confirm its the KI giga back there? No not yet, but its pretty likely. Personally I like the color and think its going to be awesome to see this tower over Racer and Coney Mall if this is it and can't wait to hear the name and theme around what will most likely become my new favorite ride. 5 1
