Really excited to hear this news! I have always been fascinated by the original "Bat" and it's legendary saga. So glad to see King's Island making yet another brilliant marketing decision. Invoking memories of a ride of the past is always a great way to generate interest and nostalgia.
I agree with what has already been said about TN Tornado's color scheme fitting it's theme very well. I also think that Millennium Force's blueish-purple track is a great color and seems to imply a befitting status.

When I was 7 years old in 1985, I rode Geronimo at Water Country in Portsmouth, NH. It remains the only time I've ever genuinely screamed out of fear on a ride. I rode it many more times over the years, but that first time scared the daylights out of me.
I only rode Gwazi once back in 2003, but I found it to be a fun, fast and fairly comfortable ride. It must have deteriorated quickly because it was still a fun ride back then.
The restraints on Wild Eagle were comfortable until the break run for me. At that point, they became uncomfortably tight. Luckily, it is only a moment or two before pulling into the station and having the restraints released.
I agree. Adventure Express has a disappointing ending. I also think The Legend at Holiday World starts off much stronger than it ends. As for the best ending, I think Mystery Mine at Dollywood ranks fairly high.
