shivtim Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 Cedar Point keychain time! Here are some slightly older ones: Leather Raptor Aww, I miss Demon Drop. Old school Magnum keychain. Who knew Magnum had an immelmann? Credit whore Woodstock's Express keychains! This was the coldest ride on a coaster I've ever had. It was about 39 degrees and extremely windy. Brrr!

shivtim Posted April 17, 2014 Author Share Posted April 17, 2014 Time for an update! Here are a few more random keychains from the late 90s. From the Paramount ownership days of Kings Island. Weird color scheme for the Beast. From the opening year of Medusa (now Bizarro), the first floorless coaster! The train kind of looks like a row of pigs. Another SFGAdv coaster - this one moved to Brazil in 2012 but hasn't been re-constructed yet. Yay Phoenix! Such an awesome coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shivtim Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 Indiana Beach had some very unique keychains. I love it when parks have a lot of quirky merchandise, instead of just generic "SIX FLAGS BATMAN" stuff. Anybody know of other parks with off-beat and unique souvenirs? IB Crow and donkey ride LoCoSuMo! The mine cart slides back and forth across the keychain. A faux-bronze Indiana Beach eagle? Why not? A whole mini deck of cards inside a keychain! Old-school film roll keychain that pulls out, revealing Indiana Beach attractions. Early 90's Indiana Beach Notice the Hoosier Hurricane wasn't even built yet. At this point the only coasters were Galaxy and Tig'rr And of course, a plush IB Crow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shivtim Posted May 29, 2014 Author Share Posted May 29, 2014 A few more classic keychains, including what I think is probably my oldest keychain (Riverview Park). Old-school keychain! This park closed two decades before I was born. They had a total of 19 different coasters over the years. Carowinds, before Paramount or Cedar Fair. Home of the 1938 Blue Streak. RIP, Pavilion! I think the trains on the hurricane were cursed. First Hurricane closed in 2006, and then the trains were moved to Son of Beast. We all know how that worked out!

shivtim Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 This week's theme is "all American keychains"! From the patriotic to the tacky. Summer fireworks at Cedar Point! From 1995. Remember Opryland? Well here's a patriotic Opryland keychain! Ummm.... yeah... this may be one of my favorite keychains. The tacky clipart and rainbow font is magnificent. "The Park at MOA" was the short lived name of Mall of America's amusement park after Knott's Camp Snoopy and before Nickelodeon Universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shivtim Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 Some "small park" keychains. Sometimes these parks don't have any keychains at all, and sometimes they have a nice selection of unique keychains. How hot is it at Lake Winnie? Enchanted Forest (Oregon) LED light I guess if you need to measure something? Snow globe keychain! Train-themed Storybook Land keychain. Anybody been on the "Bubbles" coaster? Another neat train keychain from Storybook Land. The park had a great selection of unique merchandise. I got a christmas ornament too! Rampage! Re-opening soon?

coasterbill Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Does anyone else convert keychains into Christmas Ornaments? Whenever we go somewhere new (a park or otherwise) we try to get an ornament, but we've found that keychains are much easier to find so if a park doesn't have ornaments we've started buying keychains and putting ornament hangers through them. You'd never know the difference... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storms555 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Dude! Im surprised i didnt find this particular thread until now! As I collect key chains of all sorts and have over 1000s of them. Amusement parks ones of course are one of my favorites. I would post them here however I already posted them in this thread: http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=70279&start=40 if you want to look.
