Kings Island 2019 Announcement on National Roller Coaster Day 8/16/18

Featured Replies

The project that @boddaH1994 and @Old_Bearcat are referring to could be a Coney Mall overhaul that is done in phases. 

Phase 1 could have been the BBQ

Phase 2 could be what they're announcing tomorrow

Phase 3 could be B&M's involvement.

If B&M on the document indicates the giga we've all been hoping for, I wouldn't be surprised if the park would want to renovate Coney Mall before its debut.

  • I like to think BIG... like an entire area re-vamp. My hope is that Coney Mall is getting a complete reno.  It certainly needs it.  I personally think that the addition of the Smokehouse restaura

    In the public records show above, between plumbers and painters I think I have it cracked.   We are getting a very reliable, high capacity, B&M manufactured restroom in X-Base.   

  • Welcome to KIC! Most of us here like roller coasters a lot, but other types of rides round out the park experience. As a kid, before I got into coasters, my favorite rides were Phantom Theater, K

Maybe, they're giving us something now, to throw us off the trail (yeah, keep trying) of whatever the bigger announcement is, whenever the hell that happens. I hope that its a refurb of The Racer and the return of the Les Taxis. Whatever it is, I'll be happy with it...for a few weeks!

I'm on board with this theory...Whatever we get in the distant future, will most likely go back in Coney. Draw your crowds into the park. plus it gets them out of the way.

Looks like multi-year phased upgrades are in the works. Tomorrow we may only hear about what is immediate; however, for everything to work together they are planning ahead

Is there any significance in the name HENRY BRYANT?

ive been looking and so far cannot find anything on that name associated with Kings Island.

I can't make it tomorrow either dude. Hang in there.
My guess is maybe they're doing two things next year. Maybe Racer is getting the refresher that everyone on here is guessing about on here as well as getting the antique cars back. I know my sister will be doing cart wheels if they announce Racer going backwards again. 

I can’t get there, either. I work in a prison and can’t have my cellphone, so I have to wait til 5pm. I’ll be in the dark for what will feel like hours.

Bryant is the maiden name of Henry Ford's wife and along the family line Bryant has been the middle name of Ford descendants...or it is purely coincidental...

This makes me think the antique cars are coming back. Henry was at the park a couple years before this and something that existed then wasn’t there in 2006. The cars were removed in 2004, correct?

@dwitb I believe that's a reference to Son of Beast's loop.  The line "something was missing" makes me think that, along with the date. 

Edit: Got the years wrong.

When did they remove the loop?

I don't think so- Son of Beast still had its loop, and was running, on June 6th, 2006. Its accident happened on July 9th, about 1 month later, and that's when it shut down for the season (Re-Opening in July 2007). I think the "something was missing" part is because in 2006, the Antique Cars were gone and had been replaced by BLSC.

 

I see cars comeback and a large Farris Wheel going in a node to the Zodiac. A new lighting package like the Gemini midway at Cedar Point got a few years back. Possibly some RMC topper track on The Racer, However I do not see them turning The Racer back around unfortunately! :( 

And we can't forget about the old Action Theater....Every time I see that building sitting back there unused for most of the year. Carowinds re-opened theirs to the Plants vs Zombies attraction last year. 

Yep. This is definitely the return of the Antique Cars. The one teaser where it says "mom even let me drive a car" makes it a no-brainer.

The Flying Eagles left in 2004. And they were OLD...

We already have them back. Having two sets of gliders in the park would be redundant.

Like having two carousels?

 

Edit - Oops, CoastersRZ beat me to it.

We are getting a very reliable, high capacity, B&M manufactured restroom in X-Base.   :lol:
