I have decided to start collecting Zippo lighters from King's Island. I have a few in my collection as of right now. I am looking to buy some more to add to my collection. Does anybody have any of them up for sale?

Pet peeve alert. Pet peeve alert. Pet peeve alert. Can anyone find it?

I think's I can.

UGH it's not King's Island, it's Kings Island, thank you very much!

Yet the Thunder Alley sign said King's Island....

And look at it now.

Great way to welcome people to the site guys.

I didn't intend on spawning a bunch of posts correcting his grammar. It's just a pet peeve of mine.

Not being rude, but I remember you attacking some KIC members in the past over simple stuff.....

S.O.B. is just trying to be fair

I love Zippo lighters. I'll keep my eye out for KI lighters for you just in case. My prize Zippo is one from Jon Kricfalusi, featuring his character "Sody Pop".

Attacking? Not quite. Someone was continually using others' photos without permission or proper attribution, I pointed that out to them. Pretty different from a new user unknowingly adding an apostrophe to a name and being ridiculed by other members.

In response to BlackLabelRules, as no one seems to have responded to your inquiry, I'd say your best bet of building to your collection would be to just buy them directly from the park. I've seen lighters from Kings Island on eBay here-and-there, but not too frequently.

I know they sell some just outside of Diamondback's gift shop adjacent to the smoking area, but that's the only location inside the park of which I am aware. They probably sell them in different merchandise shops.

I'm not a smoker (I'd be breaking the law if I were), so I've never had to look out for them.

Anyone who puts an apostrophe in Kings Island should be put in prison without parole.

Should the same go for Airbrush Tee's?

Don't forget the famouse letter misplacements.

Zippo lighters are very collectable, no matter where they are from. My good friend from school has an engraved zippo lighter from his near 30 years he had spent in the 5th Special Forces Group. They are very popular among all soldiers in special forces because they are very durable and will light almost under all conditions.

This was an eBay listing from last week for 6 Kings Island Zippo Lighters :

Are these "official"? To be honest I have always thought that when I see these on eBay that they are just made by the seller.

Some of those look suspiciously like someone bought the sticker set and stuck them on some lighters. The only "official" ones I ever saw were etched, not color.

First off I want to apologize for using the posessive form of the word King. I didn't realize that it would affect people that much. Next, I bought the auction from the eBay link. They are all official lighters from Kings Island. Last year I won three of them in the arcade closest to the entrance to The Racer. I currently have a red version of the Firehawk lighter and two versions of the tribal logo Kings Island lighters. One is black and the other is brushed aluminum just like the one in the auction picture. The guy that sold the ones on eBay said he had a season pass a few years ago. He won them from the arcades just as I did. I have a season pass for this year so I will look around to see what I can find. I am not a smoker. Never have been and never will be. I like to collect the Zippo lighters from Kings Island because they look cool. I like the artwork on them. Also, I would like to thank the people that gave an honest answer.

Zipper lighters are boss for all. Never know when that camping trip might come up, and you need a firestarter.

I have two zippos from the park. Last years saw some in the Diamondback gift shop.

Is it just me, or were the Zippo games much easier to win in the early 90s? Maybe my patience has diminished with age...

In the early 90's you were playing those games? Were you even old enough?

I worked at the park this summer in merchandise. I wasn't even aware we sold lighters in the park.. though that might have been just because my store didn't sell them.If there was a place to buy them, the Diamondback store would probably be the one.
