I visited the Magic Kingdom on a few evenings this week and found a few newsworthy items to share, so let’s take a look around the park (and a nearby resort):
Starting at the Grand Floridian, the carpet in the lobby was replaced recently
While there isn’t as much resort specific merchandise here as there was before, there is a new luggage tag and key chain
They also have a dVC 25th anniversary t-shirt for sale
On to the Magic Kingdom
The stage is being built for Mickey’s Royal Friendship Faire
A lot of facade work happening in Liberty Square
New Darth Vader MagicBand available
Some new phone case designs can be found in Tomorrowland
The Wondground Gallery art is gone from this location, but the Space Mountain merchandise moved to this wall now
New Mickey balloon pin
Some work happening on the exterior of Carousel of Progress, looks like they are just replacing lights though
Some of the monorails are getting new vents that are black instead of the old grey
Finally found the Star Wars attraction poster shirts in the Emporium
TIE Fighter popcorn bucket now available in Tomorrowland, but it’s cheaper now
The Beef Stew is gone from Gaston’s Tavern
A ham and cheese stuffed pretzel is available now
It wasn’t awful, but it kind of tasted like a Hot Pocket…
Prairie Outpost and Supply in Frontierland was closed recently, a product of budget cuts
This store sold candy, baked goods, and bottled drinks for the most part
Golden Oak Outpost is now selling the souvenir Country Bear Jug
Some new luggage tags on sale at the Emporium
Hayden Christensen as a Force Ghost on a Haunted Mansion t-shirt! Thanks for ruining my weekend, Tom!
At least COP is getting some love
i love the new monorail tag, it makes me laugh, :D
