News Country Bear Jamboree is getting new songs and acts

[TrainsOfDisney]

In our many trips to the MK, we have never gone to Country Bears. I can't be the only one.

I’m trying to think if there is an attraction I’ve never experienced. I don’t think I’ve ridden the dinosaur spinner at DAK, but that’s probably it. Oh yeah and the mickey shorts theatre. I haven’t been to all the meet and greets though.

Imagine how it would have been if Figment had a ride in TDL the merch would put Epcot's version to shame.

Figment would be extremely popular in Japan.

Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if they build one. With how popular he is (merch, popcorn buckets, meet and greets, the ride, the movie, him visiting WDS/WDI) disney knows how much money he takes in and how many crowds he eats up. If OLC wants a good new ride, this is what they should build

Especially since Tokyo had plenty of bear merch and plushes that they never tried selling here in WDW.

I want ALL of those plush figures.
ALL!


Why oh why were these never brought over to WDW??
They are made by the same distributor as the current Park plush and would sell just fine.

Leaving money on the table again, Bob.

It's because everyone wants..NAY..Needs friggin pins rather than physical merchandise...Pins this and that. This is why most of the stores don't carry much anymore..

are they doing anything to improve the animatronics and/or the theater or are they just updating songs and movement programming?

 

[WorldExplorer]

There is so much good merchandise they could make and don't.

It's weird, because I was under the impression that the Big Al shirt they made for the 50th sold very well. I think it sold out? Which was more than they could say for most of the 50th stuff.

You would think they would at least try more of him.

As far as I know there will be audio, lighting and AA improvements alongside the new songs and programming.

How are pins not physical merchandise?

They don't have much for children either. I think all of the 50th merchandise was for adults. All I remember was the 2 expensive figures, a $50 mug, and the adult shirt.

Pins are physical merchandise, though? And it's not like they're some new, trendy TikTok fad, they've been a popular Parks souvenir for nearly a quarter century now. Additionally, they've released quite a few CBJ pins at this point.

Maybe I'm not understanding your point here.

How are pins not physical merchandise?

Meaning like Dolls, figurines, statues, shirts...Not like ones you grab squint at it for a second and toss into a drawer to forget about.. when was the last time they made a TON of merchandise for one attraction and continued to make more of like PoTC and HM..You hardly saw Tiki or Bears merch once in a blue moon out here..

I guess I'm not big on the whole pin thing..I just don't get it..
