I'm sorry, it is true. But, you are partially correct. In 96/97 Premier divided itself into two divisions, Premeir and Phoenix rides. If I remember correctly, Phoenix was going to focus on new rides, and Premeir was going to focus on ride rehabs and parts distribution.
I never heard why, but Phoenix and Premeir sliently merged into a single name again, Premier rides. This was shortly after, if not during the year+ of troubles they had trying to get Mr Freeze and Chiller to work.
Premier Rides website lists Mr Freeze and Chiller as Premier installations, and makes no reference to Phoenix anymore.
