supposedly B and M launched coasters are supposed to come out around 2013...

Islands of Adventure just called, they want it's rumor back.

Well, just coming from Orlando, I think a good water coaster would do like Journey to Atlantis.

That reminds me.. how was your trip? Are we going to get a trip report? (or is there already one and I just missed it)

I think that an Intamin coaster would do well at KI. We don't have one yet, and Cedar Point's Maverick seems to fit the idea in my head. Something terrain hugging, with many twists, turns, and PLENTY OF AIRTIME! It doesn't have to be record-breaking, but I think KI needs a fast, fun, high-capacity ride, and Intamin seems to do well with those.

Then I shall rewrite it, Supposedly B and M launched Coasters that are actually launched by B and M are supposed to come out around 2013....

Stand up coasters are finished. Too many G's to be fun.

KI needs a water coaster to link the 2 wavepools.

I will take anything by B&M over anything from anyone else any day.

I think a Wild Mouse in Coney Mall would be awesome, though.

Another thing....

Those Intamin Maverick-like coasters are getting somewhat "cookie-cutter-ish". It's time for something completely different, and King's Island should be the park that gets it!

Cookie cutter? The Blitz coasters are nothing like cookie cutter (and there are only 2 of them), more geometrical ride like http://rcdb.com/778.htm?p=1157, are cookie cutter. Blitz's are too well flowing and (obviously) not very geometrical.

Would Cheetah Hunt be considered a Blitz coaster too?

No. The other is iSpeed:

So what makes Cheetah Hunt not a Blitz coaster?

Miller, particularly one with a double-dip.

I think a wild mouse would be a great fit for KI, as it would appeal to coaster junkies and families alike

A B&M Dive coaster like SheiKra or an Intamin Xcelerator coaster like Storm Runner would be awesome!

I agree, Dive Coaster would be my first choice. Then probably a Giga (BeastForever said nothing about), for third it would be an Xcelerator or a Maverick style ride. I think a Dive Coaster or a Giga would fit wear Son of Beast (if they decide to not reopen it) Xcelerator might fit there to and Maverick would fit perfectly in Rivertown.

A new wooden roller coaster. But the already exsisting wooden coasters Don't need to be removed to build a new one.
