I think Club Blood should run all year round. Fist pumping with Zombies is always a blast.

What are the chances WildCat receives some new paint with Luminosity? It seems they wanna bring the area around it up to date and Iron Dragon was painted not too long ago so it would be nice to see WildCat get repainted.


Wildcat received new paint 8-9 years ago. Even though it is a pretty odd (most will say ugly) combo of colors, the signage, track, and platform stations all really match well together. The jungle color scheme is an improvement over the patriotic one if I do say so myself.

Patriotic? You mean the white supports with the dark green track? Not sure what is patriotic about that...

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe he meant St. Patrickotic.

WildCat's color scheme is considered "jungle colors"?

So will all this be in place and operating on opening day? I remember that Starlight didn't start every year until June, presumably because of the later hours. Just curious if they'll still be some minor work going on during May. I'm really looking forward to the attention to detail that seems to be taking place.

They said it would start around the beginning of June. I think they said around June 2.

Depends on who is designing the jungle.

Wildcat's orignal colors did consist of red and blue however. The current color scheme is the 3rd for this coaster.


Blue people fly sideways when it rains

So Wildcat has an odd color combo, but the new water slide colors are good?

Personally, I feel like the waterslides' new colors will be better than their original dingy white... They're more exciting now!

I think that WildCat's colors look pretty cool at night on the midway. Plus it's better than the paint job on Iron Dragon in my opinion. And since it's a smaller, less popular ride, having those colors makes it stand out.

My bad, for some reason I was remembering the center of the tracks were dark blue. Anyways, patriotic probably wasn't the best term to describe the old paint scheme.

Can castaway bay employees and cedar point live in the same housing? Also, can we see them often? And is this 1 am curfew thing very serious? Cause what if we want to sleep over someones place?

Seriously? And does this remotely fit the topic of this thread?

Lionblue, you'll probably have more luck with that question here.

From Mr. Hildebrandt:
"Blue Streak, our oldest coaster (1964) is getting new paint. It's a lighter blue and looks terrfic. Can't wait to ride!"

Light blue? I like it better with dark blue. It looks nicer and newer if it's dark, light blue makes it look faded IMO.
