Wow i feel really dumb now. Everytime i rod ethat i would get on it and pedal as fast and hard as i could.

If The Beastie is going to be pink someone could take a picture of it and post it because The Beastie top hill can be seen from the parking lot and the road.

If you have been to Paramont's Carowinds, first of all that is where the screeching eagles are located now as danny phantom, but anyways<> their NC is ok; the carousel is terrible, orange and green and ugh... but they have a fairly odd parents coaster, since PKI had the original scooby, when paramount bought all the parks including PKI they named the scooby coaster beastie, as for all the rest of the parks so they were all the classic designs for "kiddy" coasters. but i think when paramount makes all the parks NC style kiddy land then all The Beastie style coasters will probably be NC style...

NC= nick centeral.

p.s. sice when did The Beastie have pedals?! nvm u started a new topic XD silly me. and hanna barbara land will become all nick, no more scooby, i have a last picture with scooby. lol he was dancing to christmas music at winterfest, i <3 scooby and miss him/ or her whoever was in the costume XD.

Ummerrr... ???. Okay Scooby Doo is the only HB character that will remain in Nick Universe because Scooby is still under contract until 2013 or somthing like that so you will have plenty of time to visit scooby doo...The Beastie is rumored to get a Fairly Oddparents theme.

Scooby is staying but I dont think hes staying that long, i think its only till 2008 - 2009.

I can see more cardboard.

Scooby Coaster was renamed and rethemed to The Beastie prior to the Paramount acquisition.

Only our trains are Fairly OddParents colors, the ride structure kept it's Animation Station colors(purple and yellow). BTW, the rights to Scooby-Doo and all of the HB cartoons are never ending.

As I understand it, the HB license Paramount has for HB characters expires in 2009. However, I`m not sure how accurate that is. However, Paramount has a seperate license for the Scooby ride through Sally Dark Rides, the company that made all the sets for SDatHC.

http://timelines.home.insightbb.com/taft.htm 1984, read the purple.

The only error I see in the timeline is that Kings Island is sold to Carl Lindner's American Financial Corporation in I believe it was 1988.

Well, no timeline(or anything else) is perfect. If you notice PGA doesn't have the rights because PGA wasn't theirs at the time(1989).

BTW, the rights to Scooby-Doo and all of the HB cartoons are never ending.

Yes they are they end in 2009 from what I've read but CoastersRZ is right scoobys rights are on another contract.

^King Bowser, any ocnfirmation yet as to when the scooby rights end? If sally dark rides has the rights to scooby wont KI just keep him around untill they decide to re-theme the ride?

^ When I worked at PKI this past year I was told that Scooby Doos right end in 2013 but I'm sure PKI could always pull out and retheme the haunted castle whenever they feel the need.

yeah cardboard isn't expensive.

No but getting the sensor for the ride and paying people to make the cutouts is.

Thats the rights to the walk-around character NOT the castle darkride trust me I know what I speak

And yes the pop-out in SD&THC are Wood not cardboard.

I just got word from the park that there will be a construction tour sometime this February. Keep checking PKIC for details.

O I can't wait even though it will probaly be on a weekday I might just have to take a day off school to go up and check it out.

Sweet I would love to go to that I went to the one in march last year and it was fun.

^was the one last year in march or january? I remember going when it was somewhat cold out but Klockster was wearing shorts and a tee shirt and the IJ billboard and HD dinner werent done yet. Was there a second tour in march?

Yes, there was a tour last year in January, and then again another tour on a Friday evening in March.

I wonder if this one is going to be on a Friday

I wonder if this one is going to be on a Friday

Almost definitely.

Maureen said she would have one this Friday like tradition dictates, but there simply isn't anything to see yet.

Wouldnt they have to annouce whats in store for 2006 first? I hope they annouce whats coming two weeks or less before the tour I really hope they annouce whats coming soon I have a 5 year old son that cant wait to go to pki this summer.

As sad as it is to say it, it's time for HBL to be re-themed. Although I grew up with the HBL characters, most of today's kids don't know who Huckleberry Hound, JabberJaws, or--gasp!--even Fred Flinstone is.

I think a new look and complete overhaul to HBL/NC would be a really cool, exciting thing. Get some quality family rides in there, some good, fun kids shows and just really make it into a section just as fun as AZ or Rivertown.

Although I would love to see PKI get some new thrill rides, I think that seeing what updates could be done to the family portion of the park will be really exciting!

Well as much I hate to say it the characters we grew up to love are outdated in thier eyes ,except for Scooby Doo thank god hes ageless . Kids arnt watching reruns of the Flintstones or Yogi Bear like we did . Its Spounge Bob, Dora, The Thornberry's, and Blues Clues. I dont like any of these except for Spounge Bob Im still trying to find out more about the Crusty Crabs

I bet those things get really hot in the summer.

Believe it or not they arnt hot at all.

No more SCOOBY BUCKS !!!!!!
