January 22, 200818 yr I hope im not duplicating a topic but on holloween haunt that big statue guy with the head broken off,does that go back on and if not what are they going to do with it.
January 22, 200818 yr Im not sure which statue you speak of.. Id venture to say that KI rarely throws anything away.. You name it and you can find it (or at least the remnants)..
January 22, 200818 yr Author Im not sure which statue you speak of.. Id venture to say that KI rarely throws anything away.. You name it and you can find it (or at least the remnants).. Theirs a topic thats called 10-6-07 and it has a pic of it.That topic should be in trip reports.
January 22, 200818 yr ^ I don't agree with that at all. Yes, they save some things. BUt the Son of Beast loop has been scrapped, they sold the monorail and Antique Cars, and several other Kings Island pieces have been trashed. And RaCeR, I assume you're talking of the Tomb Raider statue near the Eiffel Tower. I believe it'll be gone in 2008, or at least from that position. However, the park may save it in storage. But it being Paramount and all... And a little idea that just sprung up in my head. What if they laid the head amongst teh Adventure Express ruins? I mean, it'd be an added piece of scenary for free, plus it'd add to the experience!
January 22, 200818 yr Actually, the old Antique Cars were not sold. Rather, they were shipped out to Worlds of Fun in Kansas City to be mixed in with their fleet of Antique Cars.
January 22, 200818 yr Thats the lot I was thinking of with the random stuff (!!) Surely theres a stash of other randomness. I recall seeing the player piano from Phantom in November under cover behind The Racers. Also, pretty much everything from phantom is sittin around. Agree with both of you
January 22, 200818 yr That statue was originally put there to promote the new Tomb Raider movie, after the Cedar Fair acquisition, the statue became beheaded for Halloween Haunt. Weather or not it stays there, time will tell. It may stay, it may be scrapped, it may be taken down and put back up for HH later.
January 22, 200818 yr they got new cars for phantom? i thought that they just painted them to look like mystery machine??? why get new cars that look like the old ones instead of gettin new nifty little Mystery machine shaped ones?
January 22, 200818 yr Huh, and all this time I could have sworn that was a statue of the Roman consul Cincinnatus, the namesake for the city of Cincinnati...
January 25, 200818 yr Author And I'd say they keep alot of random things. How do you know all that stuff is what it is.Like how do you know Thats The TRTR sign and HBL carasoel figs.AND DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE OTHER JUNK IS.

Look at the website. It is his passion and his job to know what that stuff is. Everyone here is a Kings Island junky and we study every little detail.
January 25, 200818 yr Well if you look at that picture close enough you can tell what a lot of the things are .. namely the pt cars the krusty crab shell, and the river adv wheel

If you're familiar with the things that are in the park, you can tell what each of those items are. LOL, and I agin't got the best eyes!
