This picture is nothing special but I figured that I would share my favorite thing about the new Adventure Port, this boat…boy I love it!

Dead grandmother eh…well roll her old bones over here…

Amen...I am more stressed at Disney than at work...or even my usual normal day-to-day life...something is wrong there...but I don't foresee Disney fixing their issues anytime in the near future. (Even a Disney cast mate was ridiculing their Genie+ system to me...we were talking about how you "have" to get up at 7AM to make your plans...and she said very sarcastically "Yeah...because we all know that when you're on vacation you want to get up at 7 in the morning!"....I loved her honesty.)

It would be nice to win...and even nicer to live long enough to use it all!

Sorry, I do not have a spare one hanging out that I know of...and I am a completest type of a collector, I hate missing something in a set....but keep a good thought, I can't last forever and I know that my collection of Kings Island stuff will eventually end up on eBay!

These are the ones that I own…I believe these are the only ones made with Nick characters.

Personally I think only someone who was high would be willing to spend $24.99 for them! I will admit they look great…but that price is insane.

You would of thought that every now and then would be good…every day seems a bit extreme! (Every now and then I like to honor Terpy with something I think he might have posted. )

I find it hilarious that a group started to basically subvert Kings Island’s chaperone rule has a “one strike your out” policy…what, they don’t want anyone to break THEIR rules?!

I am glad they are continuing these pins…but also surprised since they are always on clearance at the end of each season…which leads me to, who are they kidding with “Get yours today while supplies last”.

I know…if they did that, then people would be saying stuff like “I wish they would open earlier…I wouldn’t even care if all the rides were running…I just wanna ride something!”

Congratulations! Have fun!

The beginning of your sentence should be capitalized, as should Camp Cedar...you also misspelled both definitely & availability. As the saying goes...people in glass houses should not throw stones!

I haven’t talked merch in awhile…just a couple of observations…I am surprised that the site has not had any type of clearance sale yet on some of the 50th anniversary merchandise…. I would have thought that they would have tried to clear out some of the shirts, cups & banners . I wonder if these items will still be in the gift shops when the park opens…and if so, will they still be regular price? I am also surprised that they have still not sold out of the autographed book bundle. I know it is pricey…but I would have thought that there were easily 50 people who would have wanted it by now.

Wondering how much cheaper the new price will be since the cups cost less to produce….just kidding. (As my dad liked to say…500 comedians out of work and you’re trying to be one.)

You should have thrown on one of the new full train cut outs…that way you would have gotten more bang for your buck with the shipping cost!

It’s finally up on the site!

@gforce1994 Your cherry picked bad reviews have changed my mind, the place IS a sh*thole after all. In my defense, I can only plead the onset of senility for believing I was satisfied during all of my family’s problem free stays there.

@gforce1994 Yes I agree, that many 1 Star ratings does not look good…but I would venture to say that a lot of them are from when they first opened. The whole COVID situation put them behind schedule….things weren’t ready…they cancelled reservations, and even when they opened everything still wasn’t ready…I remember they were getting severe hate!

I was on Craigslist…Camp Cedar has begun renting the cottages on a monthly basis during this slow period! They have also changed their policy that pets are now allowed in them…which doesn’t honestly thrill me. https://cincinnati.craigslist.org/sub/d/kings-mills-short-term-tiny-home-rentals/7574764449.html

The vast majority of them give it a positive review. I have stayed there around 6 times…I can agree that they are still trying to get some issues worked out…but I have never had anything even remotely dirty.

@Vortex1987 Very nice collection! Thanks for sharing the pictures.

I envision this Winterfest discussion going through the summer!

I know that paying $7.00 is neither fun nor fair for shipping such a small item as one pin…but in the site’s defense, shipping costs have gone up a lot over the past couple of years…plus they do ship Priority Mail. I am very happy with the site’s current shipping calculator. In the past it was often cheaper to split your items into 2 different shipments because the calculator that they were using at that time seemed to be miscalculating the packages true weight…now it appears that no matter how much you order it is still only around $7.00. I ordered one of the full train Beast cutouts…and those things are REALLY heavy…I also had a few pins in that order…and shipping was still only around $7.00! I appreciate the site is working like this…it means that someone like me who lives far away and can not come to the park often can still keep up with new items. I am a Gold Pass holder…so it kills me that I already miss out on a 10% discount because I can not come to the park…so having a reasonable (IMHO) shipping cost makes this situation a little less painful. I am so thankful the site even exists!
