Hey All!
Just wondering where everyone gets their guest of honor badges from... I know you can get them at MGM and Downtown Disney, but where in the MK or AK can you get them? If at all? Thanks!

When we got ours last September, we looked at each park. The places CM's told us to look had been changed over to pin trading areas in the MK and Epcot. The only place we found them was MGM at the Celebrity 5 & 10. Of course, that was almost a year ago.

The last time I was there, they were at the shop just outside the Lion King show at MK. At EPCOT they were on a cart in between WS and FW. I didn't look for them in the other two parks. My kids have pooh and tiger on theirs. I even had a few CM ask where we got them. Hope that helps.

In June I was on a mission for Guest of Honor badges for me and my girls. We were sent on a wild goose chase thru three different stores in MK and the CM in the last one told me the only place to find them was at DD http://www.intercot.com/boards/emb.gif I don't know if it is still the same but I am glad I made the extra effort to get them. I wear mine over my name tag at work and the kids at school love it!

I did the same thing as lorirose -- I got them ahead of time from Gifts of a Lifetime. Packed them with my pins to trade that I got from cheappins.com, and I didn't have to worry about shopping upon arrival -- I could just wear my pins and enjoy!

My daughters love their Guest of Honor Pins. We got them out the other day and looked at them.

The Guest of Honor badges are WDW name tags that say guest of honor... they cost about $8.00 or so, and some of the cast members really make an effort to use your name when you are wearing one and it strikes up a lot of conversation amoung other guests at the world... lots of fun for kids and adults who act likle kids too!
