Epcot anniversary merchandise question

[srwarden1928]

I will be at WDW with my family on Sunday, October 1. They have nonhoppers; I have AP.
We will spend the day at MK not going to the party that night, but I could be at Epcot probably by around 6.
What special anniversary merchandise might I want? Is it worth going to Epcot for the evening to get it?
This is my first AP, and I want to take full advantage of the privileges it gives me. Also the first time I have had the chance to attend a special anniversary.

With other park anniversaries, they sell the merchandise for a year. I would think Epcot would be similar, unless they are making it a one-day-only celebration for the 1st. If so, I'd probably make the trip over there, even if I came back with nothing. Sorry, I'm a nobody when it comes to information about what they'll have to offer. I didn't renew my AP this year so I haven't even been getting the newsletters to keep up to date on current offerings. Hope you find something cool!

Some of the "I was there" merch is dated with 10/1/17. That stuff might be available until it's gone only.

One site showed all the lines saying it was for one day only another showed stuff popping up at mousegear this week... I'd assume the I was there line and probably the Figment Funko will be 10/1 only while the other items being restocked periodically
