It looks very much like this picture but it seems a bit more colorful than this, and a little more goofy but in a fun way
I’m kinda confused as to why they made the eyes light up in the concept art, but eh, it’ll probably be better pitch black at night anyway
Kings Dominion Fanatics is reporting that sources have told them that Pantherian could open by the July 4th weekend! They also expect testing to begin any day now.
Really hope it gets a grand opening and a planned one. Id like to take the day off work and get there
I think there should be a parade where all the coaster enthusiasts arrive together to ride on chariots pulled by live panthers.

National holiday. Do it Trump
Minor progress has been made, they painted the symbols on the tunnel wall but that appears to be the extent done so far. Something Is being done on the lift hill as there’s new tarps and stuff strewn about under the lift hill but I can’t tell if anything is done yet.
I wonder if any other changes will be made to the plaza before opening aside from the tower in the center
I believe there will be some panther statues around the tunnel and by the plaza on the side. At this point im not sure if anything will be added to the station as it looks as bare as always, though that is probably one of the last things they’ll decorate. I feel like they would since the other stations have dig site theming, which ultimately is just garbage sitting around like an archeological Cracker Barrel.
Also at this point I feel like the checker pavers might just stay like Yogis footprints stayed in treasure cave. I don’t want it to happen like that but given how this company is going they may cheap out there.

I don’t really care about the checker pattern but I hope they get rid of the ugly fencing near the brake run
So I was scrolling back through this forum and saw a picture on KD’s Twitter posted here where they were advertising Pantherian for selling season passes. Am I going crazy or is there no trim on that hill? I can’t see it in the picture, although it may still be there and it’s just too blurry to spot.
I can't tell, but I'm not going to say the trim should be there, but... if it wasn't there, that ending would be pretty insane. I don't mind it being there. The finale is good enough even with it.
Honestly yeah. It’s good enough as it is, but it would be pretty funny if they removed it and they’re like “oh no why is no one riding it”
I would assume it's the 15 pixels in that photo playing a trick on you, and that the trims are still there. From my experience, the trim section has less fins installed in the spring/fall, and the most during the summer. Since (to my knowledge) it only did test runs earlier this year, I would assume it was just photographed with less trims installed, and that they have/will add more before opening.
Cannot wait for this to reopen, I am itching for a ride on this beast.

Genuinely idgaf about theming anymore. I hope they open it THE MINUTE they get that lift hill fixed and tested. I’ll walk through broken checker pattern bricks if I have to. I don’t care.
