View Full Version : VMK items not available at Disney Movie Rewards
Greenway 03-27-2008, 04:47 PM I just logged into my Disney Movie Rewards account and found that my wishlist was empty. What was on my wishlist? All the VMK items. So I scrolled through the rewards catalog (all 30 pages) and it appears that the VMK promotion is not available. I was just 50 points from Inferno!!! Anybody heard anything about this promotion ending?
greenhpper 03-27-2008, 04:57 PM Wow, they are gone. I can think of several possibilities. One is that the rewards system was being abused so they were removed. Second, maybe those rewards will be obtainable in some other fashion. Third, it's a mistake. I did use the contact us option about the issue but it could take up to 3 business days to receive an answer.
TravisSch 03-27-2008, 05:08 PM Interesting. The category for Virtual Magic Kingdom is still under the Rewards list. Maybe the VMK Staff is switching up the Movie Rewards prizes.
punkpat 03-27-2008, 05:09 PM Omg your right i just checked it says there is no criteria or something like that for VMK! I am so steamed now!
TravisSch 03-27-2008, 05:11 PM Were these items on the DMR yesterday?
CooledCoyote 03-27-2008, 05:15 PM I can say they were there yesterday, Enchanted gave me 625 points and was debating what to do with them.
nateyboyisweet 03-27-2008, 05:28 PM I can't believe they took vmk things out of movie rewards! Does that mean inferno will get it's value back?
KellisMan 03-27-2008, 05:31 PM Inferno will get it's value back in like years. :p
Anyway, that's terrible! All of the people who were saving up won't get their prizes!
KrazyLuke 03-27-2008, 06:43 PM Inferno will get it's value back in like years. :p

Inferno will rise just as fast as it fell. It obviously will not be as rare as it was before, but it will obtain a higher value within months. It's a wanted magic pin and has always been popular; If demand is high and you can only get them from trades- people would do whatever and give whatever if they really want it ;)
OhanaGirl1 03-27-2008, 06:50 PM Doesn't the newsletter say we would know how to obtain Magic Carpet at the end of this month. Is it a possibility that that is going to be a new reward? I thought it was odd he did not say it would be for sale soon. :Lightbulb:
Something else to ponder.

I think if they were going to sell it, it would have happened a long time ago. To get it from the Disney Movie Rewards would be likely - getting it anyway in VMK would defeat the purpose of putting it off for so long.
Destination 03-27-2008, 07:03 PM Uh Oh! I still wanted to get some VMK things from DMR! I hope they're adding new prizes! :)
gabyta 03-27-2008, 07:07 PM something must be going on.. maybe new prizes, maybe a bug.. If anyone gets something from contact us please let us know!
FabMariah 03-27-2008, 07:07 PM If this is true.......... why is it still on promos page?
http://vmk.disney.go.com/vmk/en_US/community/index?name=PromotionsPage
KellisMan 03-27-2008, 07:26 PM I have sent a message to VMK. I hope they can answer this.
mickey0794 03-27-2008, 07:30 PM Yeah it's gone @_@
/Yay! 67+ pieces of theater I own is now rare!

They do not update as quick as you might like But they will.

VMK probably has not updated their website yet today. The website usually gets updated in the afternoon (ET).
Mega_Joe 03-27-2008, 07:53 PM I just looked at the promotions page and it seems that inferno is not there anymore???
CaptianNemo 03-27-2008, 07:57 PM I did say for a limited time. I guess the time is up!
Nemo
LadyBella 03-27-2008, 08:04 PM its gone from the promo page
i guess everybody has to use their points to get the dumb movie about the computer house, lol
for the price of 20 infernos (13,000 Points) u could get an Epiphone Limited Edition Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End-themed G400 guitar from Gibson.
for the price of 9 red stitch hats (4950) u could get a portable dvd player
for the price of 4 red stitch hats (2200) u could get a Tour of The Walt Disney Studios
for 600 points (halfway between red stitch hat and inferno) u could have 8 Disney Enchanted Calls
but to really turn the pain of your loss into a nice thing u could do this:
Donate Disney DVDs To Children's Hospitals: (75 points each)
For each reward redemption, a Disney DVD will be included in a Disney Care Package to add a touch of comfort to a child's hospital stay. Available only through 4/21/08.
each member can do this 10 times
jedibunny 03-27-2008, 08:21 PM No! now its going to be even harder to get that red stitch hat i want!
ps i would have put this in a different section so more ppl see it :D
mickey0794 03-27-2008, 08:42 PM Good thing I stocked up on theater... I have atleast 67 pieces...
CuteTabitha 03-27-2008, 09:05 PM At least I got inferno. Sorry to everyone else!
sunday_monkey 03-27-2008, 09:18 PM Bummer. I do believe that all the items (well, for sure inferno) said they were "limited edition prizes" so I guess it was just a matter of time before they disappeared.
Destination 03-27-2008, 09:26 PM I hope they put up new prizes or something :)
mickey0794 03-27-2008, 09:40 PM I c Empty spots just waiting for FCM
slinkyman 03-27-2008, 09:42 PM I hope we get the Spring Mickey Reward which is the Mickey Rug.
Maybe Flying Carpet Magic too?
I guess we will find out!
Caterpillar AEIOU 03-27-2008, 09:45 PM A "Heads UP" email would have been nice! At least with My Coke Rewards, they email you if something on your wish list is running low in supply.
I do hope that at least they will replace the rewards. I have 600 points right now!
spacerightsummer 03-27-2008, 09:53 PM Well I had two infernos and did not really think they were all that so I traded both of them. good riddance to a boring magic pin. But now my full theater and my Red Stitch hat are really rare now w00t!! ;)
KellisMan 03-27-2008, 09:53 PM Oh my gosh! The promo has been erased! :(

notanymore and aww time to make a thread looking for inferno -_-
I smell a chance of them putting up Magic Carpet and Treasure Detector on DMR...
man, not good, DMR still doesn't work for me. (-_-')
awsomered 03-27-2008, 10:37 PM w00t finally!!! maybe they can sell this in VMK!!!!
SkyRocket 03-27-2008, 11:54 PM I would like to say VMK obviously has its reasons...
1. You said you wanted inferno to be rare again
2. Trading Card game will soon be relased I heared from PirateVinnie
3. They Might be adding new prizes.
StitchRokcs 03-28-2008, 01:04 AM Omg i just noticed ALL VMK rewards on DMR are gone wiped compelatly gone >_< :Exclamation: any one know about this any guesses if its coming back?
iLoveTheRain 03-28-2008, 01:12 AM Wow! I'm so glad that buying Enchanted got me the final amount of points that I needed for inferno then o_o
StitchRokcs 03-28-2008, 01:18 AM no :( i had 600 points i was only 50 away from inferno :( and sorry i didnt see this thread i just freaked and went straight to satrt a new thread
MyBirdHat 03-28-2008, 01:28 AM Inferno will get it's value back in like years. :p
Anyway, that's terrible! All of the people who were saving up won't get their prizes!
OMG just traded my inferno! :( i should have waited. pleeeeaaassee bring them back, DMR!!
Sno Chic 03-28-2008, 01:50 AM I received an email last month from DMR letting me know that they were going to erase all movie points the end of March. I don't think they gave a date they were going to do this, but I do remember seeing March in the email.
poloshia 03-28-2008, 02:19 AM Oh well, these things have happened many times since vmk started. Like the kellogg promo ending.
KAITYkaityKAITY 03-28-2008, 02:28 AM I received an email last month from DMR letting me know that they were going to erase all movie points the end of March. I don't think they gave a date they were going to do this, but I do remember seeing March in the email.
Interesting. All of this. I just got Enchanted and was wondering when to put it on. That would be my first DMR. LOL I don't exactly belive in paying so much for a computer game. Even if it is my favorite, VMK.
SkyRocket 03-28-2008, 02:46 AM Also!! You always said VMK Shouldn't Cost Money!
DonaldsWishes 03-28-2008, 02:51 AM but we never said vmk should no pronote with movies we allready buy

Why didn't anyone post these emails, so that we all could have known?
LadyBella 03-28-2008, 08:03 AM Why didn't anyone post these emails, so that we all could have known?
i never got such an email
Stemaboat_Tyler 03-28-2008, 03:06 PM Oh no! I was 100 points from a Mickey Window :( Oh well, at least i wished for it on DarthMelissa's Wish Thing :)
Sno Chic 03-28-2008, 07:22 PM Sorry I didn't think to post the email! I usually erase my junk mail, but for some reason i read that one.
CooledCoyote 03-28-2008, 08:35 PM The Reply I just got from VMK: Thanks for contacting VMK about the virtual items offered through Disney Movie Rewards. Unfortunately, we are no longer offering VMK items (VMK Home Theater, Stitch Space Helmet, Mickey Mouse Window or Dancing Inferno) through Disney Movie Rewards. If you have a code for a Disney Movie Rewards virtual item, your code will still work, please redeem it. If you were lucky enough to get one of these items we hope you continue to enjoy your limited edition reward. Thanks for contacting VMK. --VMK_ShortyVMK Player Supporthttp://www.vmk.com

Too bad this response is not clear as to whether they will never offer items through DMR again or just not those items. I'm afraid it sounds like they will not be offering any VMK rewards.
kingkris 04-10-2008, 04:29 AM Just FYI - all VMK Disney movie rewards have been removed.
Destination 04-10-2008, 04:31 AM Yes, we've known this for a while now. Sadly.
Disney Master 500 04-10-2008, 04:32 AM Don't feel worried. Just think of it this way. If we want to be taken seriously, we must be serious ourselves.
mrmyth 04-10-2008, 04:35 AM What they also failed to realize, is with the end of VMK, I have no use for that site anymore and have cancelled my membership to it.
Let the trickle down effect start!
TheRealPumpkinQueen 04-10-2008, 04:40 AM I plan to donate my remaining points to the childrens hospital and then close my account.

How do you do that? :Question2:
