July 18, 20224 yr With the release of the latest Made To Thrill being posted today, it has shown that they aren’t afraid to make posters from the common to the obscure, the modern to the classics. I had a fun thought experiment with some friends and wanted to expand if onto here. What are some obscure park items, events, rides, landmarks, etc that you would like to see made into Made to Thrill posters?
July 18, 20224 yr I would really like to see a Viking Fury poster in the future…I think it is a both a classic…and an underrated ride. I would also like to see a Dodgem…or maybe a compilation of Dodgem, Monster, Scrambler & Shake Rattle & Roll…although that may be too much to get into one poster cohesively.
July 18, 20224 yr Puppet Tree. Beastie. Screamin Demon. Guilliver's. Zodiac. WWC. KCKC. Eagles. Fascination Parlor.
July 18, 20224 yr In addition to one's already mentioned, King Cobra and Firehawk would be two I'd like to see.
July 18, 20224 yr I second the above; I would love to have a King Cobra poster! Also, a Haunt poster representing all the major Haunts over the years (Slaughterhouse, Trail of Terror, Chaos, Urgent Scare, etc.), would be cool.
July 19, 20224 yr Author @Shaggy I didn’t even think of the eagles! Here are some of mine: 1. All other sections of the park (I assume that’s coming) 2. Timberwolf (make it look like a concert poster) 3. KI Theater 4. Fun, Fireworks & Fifty / 50th celebration 5. Haunt / WF Another direction I feel like they could go is to make faux-advertisement posters. Like: 1. Come see the Flying Wallendas 2. Kings Island opening Spring 1972 3. Plan your vacation to Rivertown etc
July 19, 20224 yr Oh, The Rotor...I remember an unfortunate evening riding that after stopping at White Castle before heading to the park. Not my best moment! Ha! And a Kenton's Keelboats poster I would buy as soon as it would go on sale. I absolutely loved that ride!

July 19, 20224 yr Author I wonder if they can use old IPs (I imagine not). I’d love to see the OG Green Slime Zone with the erupting tower.
July 19, 20224 yr Beastie, Haunt, Winterfest, Soak City, Boomerang Bay, Flying Eagles, Area 72, Oktoberfest, maybe even classic Action Zone. I already have the I Street poster, Banshee (before IP), Bat and Mystic Timbers. Made To Thrill honestly hits it out of the park with every addition they make for the parks. I'm at the point where I have to rotate out posters in my office due to wall space; which is a good problem!
July 19, 20224 yr While there is already a Beast poster, wouldn’t have a problem buying another one for Beasts helix
July 20, 20224 yr I'd like to see a poster of an old favorite-the "It's Fried!" concession stand (since renamed the more palatable "Coney Confections and Treats")
July 21, 20224 yr That'd be interesting! It's Fried! and St. Funnel were my first locations for my first job at the park.
August 15, 20224 yr Same here, I didn’t know the cars had a poster! Just bought that, the Son of Beast poster, and the Kings Island 50th blanket!
August 15, 20224 yr I like the poster, but would rather see it name Les Taxis and/or Ohio Overland Livery.
August 15, 20224 yr I think we need a poster of the one, the only #Jonathan. You young whippersnappers won't know what I'm talking about, but if you're reading this thread, you've seen it even if you don't know that you have.

August 15, 20224 yr Does Starbucks still sell overpriced tea inside the park? Also, @jcgoble3 (if you're still lurking), you still have that jacket? I know @malem is clever with a camera. For reasons....

I know @malem is clever with a camera. For reasons.... I get email notifications of mentions. Yes, Starbucks does still sell overpriced tea. I don't recall exactly which jacket it was, but probably it was the GateKeeper jacket, which I still have but the zipper broke, so it's been retired to the trunk of my car to serve as an emergency jacket if I walk into a freezing cold restaurant (Taco Bell, I'm looking at you).

I passed them up while in the park on Saturday as the line was too long and the prices were too high. And good to see you back, @jcgoble3! I also remember the noodle
