(9/1/08) Worlds of Fun make the big announcement about Prowler today, showing off artwork and revealing all the details about their new GCI wooden coaster project. The ride begins with a climb up the lift hill, the only feature of the ride that will be visible above the treeline before riders plunge down 85 feet into a ravine. From here Prowler will take you through an endless series of speed hills hugging the very wooded ground below the coaster along it’s 3,074 foot course. The overall cost of the coaster will be $8 million and will feature two Millennium Flyer trains, each with a custom paint job: Metallic Greet and Metallic Blue w/ Black Trim or Metallic Copper and Metallic Blue with Black Trim. I’ve posted much of the artwork here on Screamscape or you can download and view the animated videos at the official website. I’ve got to say that I love the ground level aspect of this coaster, which is one of the things that I’ve always loved about The Beast at Kings Island that is almost never replicated with any other coaster design.
 2010 - Starlight Experience - Rumor - (11/6/09) Despite the fact that Worlds of Fun was mentioned as one of the park’s Cedar Fair was thinking about selling, WOF is also rumored to be one of the park’s that may get that Starlight after dark light-show experience in 2010. Anyone else heard this?
