Since the park has been on overdrive all year long…which has been making me very happy…and broke, I figured that it would be nice to have one catch-all thread to post whatever new stuff that we find either on the KIGear site or at the park. 

No one has mentioned the new deluxe Diamondback cut-out that is being offered on the site. (I don’t know about the park.) The park is certainly going for higher end stuff this year.

 

This is limited to 250 pieces. At $199.99, do you think this will sell out decently fast? (Or even at all?)

It will sell out, but at $199 I don’t think it’ll be crazy fast. It takes a special type to spend that kind of money of KI memorabilia. 

Now it’s Mystic Timbers’ turn. 

Very cool cutout.

CP has had these for SV and Millie since 2020 and even as an insane SV fan there still isnt one in my house, nor are they sold out on the website, so for those who want one of these but dont have the cash to drop on it just yet, dont worry.

$200 is a little excessive, but I’m sure the right buyer is out there.

I like this one better than the DB one.

You mean you haven't bought both already?  It is too close to Christmas and you hope you get one as a gift LOL.

I was hinting it at you, if you haven’t gotten me anything yet.

I am pretty sure @disco2000is buying one for everyone who has posted in this thread from here back! 

Except @IBEW_Sparky, Disco is getting him the SV cutout!

I really like the Mystic Timbers one; that would be cool if there was one for The Bat (1993).

Today’s new offering on the site is 5 new sweatshirts:

 

They are $70.00 each…I think they look nice, but I am not a fan of printing on sleeves…I think it looks dated…like it’s from the 90’s…for those of you who are old enough to remember that time period.

They look great! I really like the Orion and Mystic Timbers ones! I am interested to see how those zippers would feel.

Awesome to see the zippers!

Right buyer, yes, 250 of them?  Thats a no from me on that, dawg.  They are cool, and if there was one made for a coaster in jeopardy of being removed Id say JUMP on it…. I regret being stupid enough to not buy the single car Dragster cutout.

Marketing team having fun with those new sweatshirts. 

Ive gotta say I like the Orion color scheme, and could see myself having one of those without the sleeve print.  If it is some type of heat transfer print that I could remove Im all for it!

Well Taylor Swift does say "come back stronger than a 90's trend"

The zipper is a much needed add-on to help secure phones and keys.

You mean you didn't have a jacket with your name down the sleeve LOL.

Hey now, if we dont want words on our sleeves, its "Our Prerogative"!  . I actually did have a Tommy Hilfiger shirt in the late 90s that had his signature in raised rubber writing down the right sleeve, but I digress.

 

I am Loving the zippered pocket as well, absolutely perfect size for my phone, pass, DL, and key fob.

 

These are also available in the park. So if your interested in them and visit Winterfest get them st the park to get your pass discount.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the zippers.

The sweatshirts are probably my favorite of the month so far.

Today on the site the “new” listings are for 2 different Christmas ornaments. I believe the brass one is the same as the one I bought a year or two ago. (Am I wrong?) I have not seen the fireworks one before though…but it really doesn’t look $19.99 nice to me…more like something I would expect to pay $14.99 for.

EDIT: I dug up the one I bought a year or so ago…the new one is different…they swapped out some rides…it is really similar…yet different.

^I'm surprised they are selling something that shows riders (although they are cartoons) with their hands and arms outside the car.  I thought that was a no-no for Cedar Fair.

That is a Cat's Meow edition.  They have a "cult" following LOL and many of their pieces have a black cat in it, thus the name.

That is about as cheap as you can find anything Cat's Meow and to the Cat's meow collector they will jump on it at that price.

I would really like to see some retro Beast t-shirts like when I was a kid. The paws were some raised material that was poofy. I think some parts of the lettering too. I mean, since nostalgia is making a comeback at KI, why not?

Speaking of old shirts. As a young teenager, I had a Beast shirt that had Bengals stripes on the sleeves. At the time I thought that was the coolest shirt I owned! lol!

As someone who has collected a sizeable menagerie of themepark merchandise and parts, I have spent extra on several pieces over the years. That said, the pricing is a wee bit excessive in terms of what you actually get. Would I spend $150 on it? Maybe if I got a bonus or a giftcard to help bounce the bill, otherwise it looks overpriced; especially considering the $125 price point for comparable train sets for the KI & MV RR and The Racer set that is currently for sale. 

Now it’s Vortex’s turn!

 

I wish that they would have gotten more creative with the track…maybe a partial corkscrew or half of a loop. 

^They are cheaping out LOL - Vortex had 7 cars

And the old CF logo.
