Hey, all you employees, If you worked at CP when Mantis was gonna open, they may have given you a pin with a banshee logo, banshee was gonna be the name of the mantis but they changed it before the ride was done, and my uncle knows someone who kept the pin when they told them to give it back so he got it from her and gave it to me and now I have it, Its probaly worth something, what do you employees think?
I still got mine too.... I haven't heard anything on value of the pin, but I'll hope for the best.
It wasnt just the employees that got a Banshee pin, so did the press at the official press release. You can sometimes find one on EBay and expect to pay around $20.00+ for one or you can sell yours for that. I had 3 of them, swapped one with a CP employee for something, still have 2.
Hold on to it
if nothing else it is definitely one of those "cool" unique CP items to own.

If I cant ride it, rope it, pull a trailer behind it, then I dont want it!! Cowgirl up!!
I have one too -- my husband was given one by a guest that had 2+ (ACE member) and he gave it to me. Wasn't this an item that was given to season pass holders at the time?

I saw a woman in June walking by the Breakers with a Banshee t-shirt. Couldn't convince her to sell it for 30 bucks. She gave me the impression that there was no point in increasing the offer, either.

How many people out there have Banshee press kits? What about the Banshee cup? What about the Banshee T-Shirt?

I got the The kit but no cup! I heard that there is also a poster! Anyone know about that.
Hhhm...
I have 4 Banshee pins, a shirt, and the press kit.
I have a Banshee t-shirt... got it for less than $10 on eBay. :)

I have two shirts (not for sale), a pin, the post card, and the original stencil that reads "Deliver to Cedar Point Project Banshee". I won that at an auction during CoasterMainia.

Welcome back Raptor riders-how was your flight??
I have the shirt with some waterstains on the bottom (easily hidden when worn), but it's the Banshee->Mantis on the back shirt, not just Banshee.

Oh, i have the Banshee/Mantis shirt too.
I would love to have the original Banshee shirt. If anyone has an extra, e-mail me ;)
Jo,
Yes the stains came out after soaking the shirt in some spray-n-wash.
