Merchandise

[chickenking]

Like those key chains & charms.

 

[BGW Family]

I wasn't sure how to handle these. So what the heck, I put them ALL up. Sorry for the overload. It seems we have done 37 photos over the years. Not including the horrible quality and amount of photos on the Fiends Behind the Scenes CD. I have no idea what these add up to with the price changes over the years. SO sorry to have bought the Verbolten travesty. Not sure why the Verbolten photo came in a Water Country folder.

Edit: Fronts, backs and insides ( THANKS Zachary!!!! )

 

[BGW Family]

I've been saving the more expensive merch for the end. Taking and sorting through 460 photos has been an adventure. But, we've loved getting it all out and looking through it.

Really HATE I missed getting the sleigh bells in Tweedside. But, we did manage these nice bells. That sort of unique we use to expect from BGW. Hanging from a S-hook I personally hand forged, BTW.

 

[Nora]

TO BGW family. I am honored you got those bells at Tweedside. They were a remnant of the Old Country shop and were authentic hand made bells- for the Clydesdales and sleighs. How great you were able to grab one of the only two left.

 

[BGW Family]

Thanks Nora, we agree. Still pining for those Clydesdale sized sleigh bell, tho'. An occasional kick to the head makes me feel better for a while.

 

[BGW Family]

This wraps up the reminder of potential money current management pushed away. The 3 days of taking pictures and the months of sorting through 460 pics, to actually use 376, has been an adventure. We do have some more photos to do, but of a different subject and after taking a break.

We saved the more expensive of what use to be for the end. Our prized 11 Waterford items.

I did white and black backgrounds on some since they are hard to photograph.

The bell and ornament below are still used every Christmas. Not much quality and uniqueness you can you buy there now that would set a family tradition in motion.

 

[Nora]

That Waterford Crystal collection.. wow.  Amazed, as always.

Here is a sweet blast from the past.  My Bevo Fox figurine.

 

[BGW Family]

Niiiiiiice.

 

[I305Evan]

I added 3 new pins to my collection this afternoon

BTW, if you ever see that exact lanyard, more or less, it's most likely me (except at Kings Dominion)

 

[Bill]

Hey, I was there when you bought some of those pins! But not the BGW ones, haha

 

[I305Evan]

And your pass discount was greatly appreciated at Epcot

 

[netdvn]

Did you snag the two Sea World pins at BGW today? I'm thinking about purchasing some over the summer (specifically that Manta one ). Hopefully they still have some left over when I return.

 

[I305Evan]

Yes I did. I got them at the Emporium.

 

[BBW]

Just won a BGW ViewMaster reel set off ebay!

I already have the 3 original sets from BGT in the 1970's -- bought when I was a kid. Now I've got BGW, too. [Happy Dance]

PS: I was inspired by Evan to start putting some pins on my pass lanyard. Picked up the trio of wolves and a griffon one from the stand by Verbolten the other day.

 

[Sky]

I kinda wish they would push the pins more - affordable, relatively personalized, and can change constantly.

 

[Mushroom]

My hope is that the pin fad will spark around here once KD releases all of theirs.

 

[BGW Family]

Ooops, missed one. Similar to the Mach Tower pin.

 

[BGW Family]

Some others from our collection.

Not much merch for this ride. I like the sleeve embroidery.

 

[Mushroom]

It's so great seeing everyone share all the merchandise they've collected at BGW over the years, so I guess I'll share some of my personal treasures. Nothing too special compared to what Nora, Zach, BGW Family, and everyone else have contributed, but they're cherished to me.

This here is what you call the best Christmas present ever. This beautiful German stein from Rhinefeld is one of my prized possessions. Love the different scenes depicting Rhinefeld!

Gotta love the Nessie mug.

Long live the Big Bad Wolf!

May as well kiss up to the site while I'm at it.

The picture of the shirt came out horribly... I did not include an image of my Vladtastic shirt, since that photo came out even worse!

It's so great thinking of the park even when you're at home...

 

[Lee]

Just scored this shirt! Liked the colors and have really never heard the BBW described as "Bad to the bone." Have not seen it advertised with the skeleton wolves either.

Enjoy!
