theres something in the shed................. TRUST ME

Those are some nice gardening tools you have there, Timbers...

So i will be going into the park as a guest on the last day of operation. Is there anything in particular picture wise that anyone would like?

Judging by the footers that has got to be pretty much the top of the lift.

As in fact it is.

Technically, there are two more bents before it is topped off, but close enough.

The drop looks really good, and surprisingly steep. Of course with the render being in NL2, it looks a lot less impressive than the real thing (unless they manage to replicate it very closely with good lighting and skybox). GCI always makes a great looking ride, but I really hate seeing the wood age (as natural as it is)...

Anybody have an estimation for what pace they'll be building this at?

Is someone aking a KI Recreation? lol

^ Perhaps yes, lol.

Edit: Thanks for the mini update! (Note: A reply to the post below. )

I never thought I'd say this. But you can see Timbers from the parking lot. (It won't let me upload the pic from my phone. Will edit post when I get home from work)

I'm going to ignore everything on the construction updates for now and let's analyze the trains. They look different depending on what image you're looking at.

Here, you see the trains are themed to a rusty, old car:


But here, they are the millenium flyer GCI trains. This is the thumbnail for a video by Front Seat Coasters, so all credit goes to him or her or whatever they identify as:


Either way, I think it's photoshop on Kings Island's part. Any other explanations?

[Paradox]

They just photoshopped a car front onto the NL2 Millennium Flyer trains.

Wow those riders are IMO well-animated!

The picture from the other day and some pics from today, my last day of the season working for Kings Island. Will be at the park covering the last operating day and pictures/videos will be posted.

Over the trees, i spy a mystic timber!

Thanks, I can spot it now! Let me say that the last shot is showing how actually tall she is!

Bottom to top of lift is starting to form and BOY THIS WILL BE STEEP.

Little be known that that picture is actually under the log flume as i was coming down from the drive box (tower) and took the picture.

That's definitely bigger than I was picturing.

I'll ask again lol I'll be at the park tomorrow for the last day of operation. Would anyone like anything in particular. Picture wise. I know someone wants every food/game building. lol.

How about some pictures of Vortex? I find that to be very intriguing to look at.

More work done at the top of the lift.

Oh that's heavenly...

Eagerly awaiting those food and game photos =D hope you had a good day there!

The lift i believe is almost done, hopefully the webcam is moved so we can see the construction back towards White Water!

Here's what i could get as my phone was being stupid and died out of nowhere. (All the game buildings in Coney Mall are the same as the one pictured)
