OhioChris Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Looks good! But look to the left. Nickelodeon and Scooby? Hmmmmm.... https://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?fbid=10150970649838368&set=a.226729858367.174830.155893938367&type=1&theater 1 Quote
jdawg1998 Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 I was thinking the same thing. I mean, it looks as if there is a whole section of Scooby Doo stuff! Has it always been like this (I mean since Scooby Doo left)? Quote
BB1 Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 If they have scooby and nick. items, i wonder if they will have flinstones or Boomerang Bay items! (Yes one may hope) Quote
countess_of_tuscany Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Ooh so awesome! I will get the hot pink shirt for sure! (Only 8 days till we're there!) Quote
mccarthysnerd Posted April 27, 2012 Posted April 27, 2012 Thats the first thing I thought, was that there was a section with Scooby Doo etc. I wonder if that was some type of 40th anniversary special merchandise or if something else is going on..... It does look like ne of those main shops as u enter the park and I know, for sure that scooby doo, blues clues, and more, were not there last year or any years that Cedar Fair owned the park Quote
TombRaiderFTW Posted April 27, 2012 Posted April 27, 2012 Glad I'm not the only one who saw a bunch of Doo. It's very curious... You'd think there was a licensing issue with that. If they want to keep going and put some TR:TR memorabilia on a shelf or two, though, I'm entirely okay with that. Quote
westcoaster Posted April 27, 2012 Posted April 27, 2012 I wonder what the scooby stuff could be back for? Maybe return of hanna barbera the ride with scooby for the 41st just dreaming.... But heck the 40th stuff looks great: Quote
DarkSideOfTheMoon Posted April 27, 2012 Posted April 27, 2012 Kings Island still has the rights to Nickelodeon until 2017 and most likely still own the rights to Scooby, and since Scooby is a main part of Kings Island creation and park itself I wouldn't see why they wouldn't include him for the 40th Anniversary. Nickelodeon has been with the park for about 15 or more years. I like the idea of having all the old characters back and not just Snoopy, since Snoopy is new to the park! Quote
standbyme Posted April 27, 2012 Posted April 27, 2012 I like the idea of having all the old characters back and not just Snoopy, since Snoopy is new to the park! At least he's new to something. Quote
BB1 Posted April 28, 2012 Posted April 28, 2012 They had, old style print shirts, shirts that had all the rides encompassing Kings Island 40, just a Kings Island 40 shirt, most of the HB characters and Smurfs items, shirts, and plushes. Also they had 1980's t-shirts in the I Love The 80's store. I will definately get one of these shirts this year! Quote
The Interpreter Posted April 28, 2012 Posted April 28, 2012 Lord help us, the 80's are retro? Man, I'm getting old! 1 Quote
jzarley Posted April 29, 2012 Posted April 29, 2012 I like the 40th anniversary logo...I just wish the graphics were a little more subtle on the tee-shirts. I'd much prefer the logo smaller on the upper left chest. Of course, I'm probably a bit older than the demographic they're going for with this gear too :-) Quote
BB1 Posted April 29, 2012 Posted April 29, 2012 Lord help us, the 80's are retro? Man, I'm getting old! No they are not retro, 1950's=retro, the 80's were the days when music was awesome, and the days that KI was around. Quote
The Interpreter Posted April 29, 2012 Posted April 29, 2012 80's music awesome? I will agree it was aw-something! Terp, lover of Forties jazz and Fred Eaglesmith. 2 Quote
BB1 Posted April 29, 2012 Posted April 29, 2012 The difference between BB1 and Terpy- BB1-loves 80's music Terpy- 40's jazz and Fred Eaglesmith Everyone has their own interests, making the world go round! 1 Quote
The Interpreter Posted April 29, 2012 Posted April 29, 2012 I'm out of likes, or you'd have another. I just can't believe how long it's been since the 80's. And I do like me some Queen from time to time. Some of which was 80's. Quote
BB1 Posted April 29, 2012 Posted April 29, 2012 Queen is a good band, its on my top 10 bands of the 80's, and maybe another day i shall have the like of today! Quote
countess_of_tuscany Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Ooh so awesome! I will get the hot pink shirt for sure! (Only 8 days till we're there!) I got the pink one! And I'm wearing it right now! Quote

Some of which was 80's. Everything after Hot Space just fails in comparison to the 70's Queen. Innuendo wasn't bad, though. God Save the Queen.

Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 80's music awesome? I will agree it was aw-something! Terp, lover of Forties jazz and Fred Eaglesmith. I take it you know all the words to the "Hut Sut Song", eh? Thank goodness for Brian Setzer, or some of us might not have made it through the 1980s! 1 Quote
westcoaster Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 If they have nick till 2017 could they have not kept Nick Universe till then? But its cool to have all its characters back ! Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 ^^^Some of Queen's stuff from the "Highlander" soundtrack was pretty good, imho; especially "A Kind of Magic. Deacon lays down one of the sweetest bass riffs in music history!" I missed the 80s shop my first trip. I'll check it out tomorrow. Ought to be a treat. Quote
jdawg1998 Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Good to know I'm not the only one that loves he 80s, even though I was born a whole eighteen years late. 1 Quote
Thrill_Biscuit Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 If you were born in 1998, you're really only 9 years late. Quote
KIfan73 Posted May 12, 2012 Posted May 12, 2012 If you were born anytime beginning at midnight on 1/1/98, it could only be a tick longer than 8 years. Quote
TTD-120-420 Posted May 12, 2012 Posted May 12, 2012 Does Cedar Fair own licensing for Pokemon and Despicable Me? All the games have minions as prizes. Quote
Diamondback96 Posted May 12, 2012 Posted May 12, 2012 Good to know I'm not the only one that loves he 80s, even though I was born a whole eighteen years late. You're only 4 years old? Quote

Jamesv7 Posted May 12, 2012 Posted May 12, 2012 I'm glad to see Scooby back in the park. They have them as a prize at wack a mole. Quote
The Interpreter Posted May 12, 2012 Posted May 12, 2012 As merchandise and prizes, I don't think he ever left. Even in the KI HB days, you could find him at Flags. Quote
