The new releases (the Dale Core pin and the Mickey/Minnie Christmas pin) are already online, which means the Coming Soon page has been updated too! All 3 of the new additions are great! There's a LE 200 of the Genie, a Core pin of Rafiki and Simba (who's artwork was shown off at the Milton Keynes event) and a great LE 500 pin set of Toy Story 3 characters!

The Core pin is so great.

If you look close, you can tell it's a slider pin, with Simba sliding up and down. I may wait a bit to see if I can trade it off the lanyard in my local store. If not, I'll just buy it. I'm totally in love the Toy Story set. To me, it looks like there's 5 pins, which are: Woody, Jessie, Lotso, Buzz and the toy gang. I've actually been wanting a Lotso pin, and I love Twitch as well, so I'll definatly be buying this set!

Quote from: "Masamune" Ooh, I love your Bambi pins anuqet, especially the ones of Bambi's mother and father.

Thank you. Bambi's parents are one of my collector buttons, but while his mother is easy-ish to find, I'm disappointed there are so few pins with the Great Prince on them, and those are *really* expensive on ebay. That Bambi 2 pin is probably the only affordable one. Sigh, but I suppose his lack of popularity means he's safe from scrappers.

Any other UKers suffering from the snow? It's officially not fun now, I haven't had post for a week and I have ebay items coming! And I was hoping to pop up town and drop by the Disney Store yesterday, but that had to be cancelled. Interfering with pin collecting is not on!

But the Coming Soon page cheers me up. Yay a Simba Lion King pin! Though those New Groove and Princess and the Frog pins have won me over also. So much for sticking to my themes.

Looking over at the Disney Store site, I see the Simba and Rafiki pin is now under limited edition, but with the amount of 1500 I'm hoping I'll still be able to track one down when I'm out braving the January sales. No upcoming core pins sadly.

Also on the site some pins that have been up there for ages are on sale at half price, which might make up for the delivery charge.

Which branch was that, since I went to my local branch today and they were selling that much sale merchandise they took all the pins off display to make more room, after enquiring at the counter they had just the standard price ones in the draws and no trading lanyards either, which I found rather strange as they always have lots.. :roll:

I did notice on the Disney website that they were selling a few of the LE Pins on special aswell as a lot of the Core Pins, which you can usually get exactly the same in the stores, except in my local..

For the next six weeks I have a job within walking distance of the Disney Store. I am going to end up spending so much money on pins.

Was in today and did some more trading off the lanyard, once again when I get home I look them up on Pin Pics to see they're probably unauthorized. I always get so flustered at the till I end up trading too quickly.

I did end up with some official bought pins, the Jack Skellington Pumpkin King and an extra Emperor's New Groove 10th Anniversary, Simonandwendy626. I hope I made you an offer on Pin Pics and not some other person who wants it :oops: .

Edited to add the latest upcoming pins.

First a Lion King pin and now a Bambi and Faline Valentine. Disney like me so far this year :lol: .
