Big - I agree, I think these are very well done. Plus, the fact that you know which one you are buying make these even better.

We did the Keys to the Kingdom tour over the summer when all the scrims were up on Main Street, our tour guide said Main Street was getting a complete makeover for the 40th anniversary. So something must be planned.

All I know is that I will be celebrating my 40th birthday at WDW this Christmas!

Check allearsnet.com and do a search. I really enjoy their newsletter and it is so helpful to research anything about WDW. :goofy:

Now that's classy - if WDW would do a 40th celebration, it would be even better, as it would be a celebration for WDW and for your own birthday :goofy:

However, mindflipper seems to be right - next piece of merchandise announced:

I'll be 30 later this year...and was hoping to celebrate my 30th with WDW's 40th...but we may have to postpone a year. That's probably still ok though since Disney usually celebrates things for 18 months.

Interesting tidbit: They still have the What Will You Celebrate audio spiels on the Monorails... That celebration has been over for more than a year now.
We are all a little weird
And life's a little weird,
And when we find someone whose
Weirdness is compatible with ours,
We join up with them and fall in
Mutual weirdness and call it Love.”
― Dr. Seuss

It remains to be seen if I will be able to go this year, but if I can WDW and I will be celebrating the same age. It opened on Oct 1st and then I came along 18 days later. It would be really cool to be there...DW and I were there for the 35th (it was our last day) and there was nothing really special going on.

That's the way I remember the 35th when I was there too. So why do people expect something for the 40th than some grubby way to get some $$$ from the merchandising of it?

They're sooooooo over-rated. It just becomes self-delusional.
