I went over there and picked up some of the stuff myself. Here is what I bought:


Of course, my Golden Mouse Ears (Which say Walt Disney World under the castle, not Disneyland):

Next, were the "Happiest Celebration On Earth" Bingo cards. You play by driving around WDW and the first person who sees things on their Bingo cards marks them off. Some of the icons are: A Parking Attendant, An Interstate Sign, Popcorn, Out of State Plate, Pin Trader, Buckle Up Sign, and Figment:

And the coolest thing I bought...The re-release of the original Disneyland Monorail game:

I was a little dissapointed in most of the merchandise though. We don't have any of the retro stuff that Disneyland has. Our main line has like, the characters dressed up in dresses and tux'es, going toward the decorated castle. The dressed up castle also has a line of merchandise, with postcards and t-shirts.

Also released was a special edition WDW railroad train set, with everything in gold of course. Another thing that caught my eye was a Sleeping Beauty Castle playset, that played music and lit up in the coolest way. It went from a bunch of different colors, like our castle does at night.

And of course they have the huge bulky keychains, pins, and card holders, but non of that was a "had to have" thing.

But that's what they have now, and alot more stuff will be coming in the future. :animwink:

The mouse ear logo in the front is embroidered! Whouldathunk?

The Monorail Game box looks spiffy, too.

Shame that you say there is really no retro line of merchandise. Oh well. :) Maybe later...

Thanks for the update, Patrick :)

Wow! Those golden ears look so cool. I think I'm gonna spend an extra $6 though to get a really nice embroidery though over in the 365 Days Of Christmas shop like I did for my other ones.

Any kind of clothing yet?

A few (I think they're) ugly shirts, with the characters dressed up going to the castle.

That's probably why they cost $9.95!


Lol, I thought they would be the same price as the black ones, but I guess not.

But that is how it works. Disney gives me money for working, and it goes right back to them. :rolleyes:

Exactly. That's another reason why you work for them! I figured this out when I started working for the years ago. You go through a audition (interview) and they weed out the people who don't really want to be there and keep the Disney Nuts like you and I. They know that we will work for peanuts (nothing) and also help spread the Disney Magic to every guest we come in contact with. They also know that since we are Disney Nuts that we will spend virtually our entire paycheck (peanuts again) on their merchandice because we've "got to have it!"

And why do you think they can pay so little? Becuase there are about 10,000 other Disney Nuts right behind you that will work for that small amount if you won't. They get you by the gonads! They know what they are doing! :brick:

Hi Raven, I havent' seen you around in a while, how have you been? :wave: Are you still in RO or are you down to FLA?

The bingo game looks really cool, I think we are going to have to get us a set of those. How much did it cost? I like the good Mickey ears, I think little PhD and baby need to get some of those. Does it cost more to embrody them? I thought it was included.

Yeah, what is the Monorail Game like?

What kind of discounts do CM receive?

I think that you can get the embroidery that Patrick got for free. You can get something fancier for a fee. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks for the info!! I was really anxious to know when the merchandise would start!!!

For future reference, what's the price of the monorail game?? I have to guess $40, since that's the price of the WDW monopoly...

Stuff looks exciting!!!

The golden mickey ears have already shown up on Ebay....most are going for 9.99.
