First piece of drop.

[kailisun98]

Looks great so far!

[arby]

The more pictures I see, the more I love the colors.

Oh wow, just looking at how close those supports for the bottom of the drop are to the top of it show how tight this thing should be!

[Shockwave]

The colours look like a can of grape soda. Deliciously vile but amazing all at once.

[Wes]

What does this remind me of?

[SFOGdude25]

^Grimace!!

 

In other news, the first drop is about halfway done!

[bonsaiisuperstar]

Wow! The first drop is going to be great! It looks pretty intense now that its together. I'm anxious for media day.

Here is a Banshee update from Sept 28th. There are some Haunt shots too. Blood drums and Ed alonzos psycho circus of magic and mayhem 2 were popular on saturday.

I was just looking at their webcam (no crane in the way right now lol). Looks hot to me...

[prozach626]

Wow! That first drop is looking steep!

[Blue Turbo]

More of the drop is in place.

[djboss302]

Wow. That looks amazing!

Maybe it is just the angle of the picture, but Wow is that drop steep for an Invert!

And an even more interesting perspective from the KI PR Facebook:

 

[UrbanLegend]

This is a really weirdly-shaped drop. Should be very interesting!

[Vonni]

I look at those photos and am convinced that this Coaster will not be forceless! I think this is going to be an amazing ride, and will not disappoint! OMG I'm so excited for next year!

[prozach626]

^ God, let's hope so. I'm still pretty jaded over Patriot, and especially Silver Bullet.

[Vonni]

Personally, I enjoyed my ride on both Patriot and Silver Bullet, but to each their own.

[Skramp]

Looks like the drop is finished, and that hugs really close to the ground.

 

[Vonni]

Wow! Kudos to the construction team! We could see work on the Immelmann by the weekend!

It's dive loop and not a Immelmann

My bad

[prozach626]

The first drop looks phenomenal. Very tight, very close to the ground.

 

Does anyone think there is a possibility of being more themeing than lead on in the previews? I hope so, but it not, it still won't make me any less excited.

[TyRush]

It looks great so far! Awesome looking drop!
