: Hey, you may be just the person I need to talk too. I get to Disneyland a couple times every year, and I've been a bit dismayed to see the selection and quality of the Indy products at the Indiana Jones Adventure Outpost falling off. I think all you can buy there now are a few of the jackets you've mentioned, trilogy t-shirts, hats, and rubber rats and snakes.
: Anyway, and to the point - I'm going to be in Orlando with my family in February. Am I going to see the same thing at MGM? I've heard in the past that you could actually buy a reproduction bullwhip there. I'm just hoping for some decent Indy merchandise. Am I going to be disappointed?
: Cheers!

I saw the bullwhip. It's horrible. It was some kind of cowhide and was reddish brown. It looked like it was a 3 or 4 plait braid so it's really just a prop. Really not worth buying if you ask me.
I bought the Mark Allen 10 foot Indy style whip and I'm very happy with it.
