Can you purchase VMK souvenirs at MK?

[The LK 4]

I'll be in WDW later this week and would love to buy a t-shirt or other VMK souvenirs for my DS and DD. I know you can get virtual prizes by playing at the MK location, but I'm more interested in "real" souvenirs.

If you had gotten the link for the VMK bracelet, you can get that at VMK Central.
On another fan site, I saw a picture of a real vmk pin you could get.

Thanks bopper! My kids are trying to get the free wrist bands.

What site? I collect pins.

We were at WDW over Thanksgiving and saw nothing we could buy that said VMK -- no pins, no shirts, nada. (We did, however complete all four in-park quests, for which we received wrist bands and lots of cards!)

In VMK Central they told me that the Emporium had shirts on weekends, but nobody in the Emporium this weekend knew anything about that. They told me to check in VMK Central. (One cast member tried to explain that the VMK was "virtual" and just in my computer. Ohhh. Thank you.) I commented to several cast members, including one of the survey takers, that they were really missing the boat in this regard.

Maybe by our next visit...

Hilarious! Uh...yeah, we get the virtual thing! I agree - they are missing out on making big $$ by selling t-shirts, hats, etc related to VMK. I'll check this weekend and update here if I find anything.

Just as long as they don't have a shirt saying " Halloween 2005 event survivor". It would sort of work

This summer there was a pin at VMK Central. I don't remember seeing it the last time I was there.

That is too funny might have to make a shirt that says "I survived a VMK event" lol

If you don't get them, send me a PM with your address. I have a couple extra (still in their packages) that I could mail to you.

Thanks - that's a very kind offer!

LOL...Thanks for clearing up the "Virtual" thing. Now I can quit waiting for the UPS guy to bring me my penny press
I agree that they are missing the boat on this one. They have everything else you can think of. I know if they had VMK stuff offered like pins and tee shirts I would buy one in a heartbeat. I always thought it would be cool if they had pins like the VMK characters

First about real VMK pins. The only one I've seen is worn by the cast members in VMK Central at WDW. It is definitely a cast only pin but I'm not sure if it is part of their uniform or something they get to keep.

Real VMK souvenirs is a great idea! In addition to selling them at the parks, I'd suggest adding a "VMK Shopping" tab on the main page that would allow us to order online. This shouldn't be foreign to them, they have DisneyShopping.com, the store on abc.com and probably other online stores.
