:P Before I went to DLRP, I bought the Buzz one and the Squirt one, both of which I traded away. Since coming back, I've bought the Lady and the Tramp one, the Bambi and Thumper one and the Wall-E one.

:D I can't wait for them to release the Alice and Cheshire one in March. Also, does anyone know when they're going to start the actual Pin Trading?

:shock: I feel so bad for those of you who have to order them online. I'm so glad that Manchester is selling them. :P When that Alice/Cheshire pin comes out in March, I'm going to be there on the same day.

So far I've bought the Lady and the Tramp one, the Bambi and Thumper one and the Wall-E one.

A disney store Cast Member told me today that if the pins are successful then in the near future they will have the lanyards and actual pin trading!

Just returned from Cambridge and very happy!!
They are selling pins and I brought:
* St Patrick Stitch
* Fab 5 group pin
* Walle
* Mickey (core pin)

The woman who served was very nice and it was quiet in the store so she started talking to me about the pins and asked if I already collected them.
She said that the pins are still being 'trialled' however so far they are popular and if they remain to be popular Cast Members will receive lanyards and pins to trade with guests :)
also in the near future (after the pins take off) lanyards will be sold :D

:) It'll be great when they start proper pin trading. I wonder what cast members would have on their lanyards to begin with though. I doubt they would be wearing the pins that are for sale, as that would mean that people could trade for them instead of buying!

On the bottom right corner ;) has anyone seen this before? its Aurora (part of the same "series" as the "Cindy & Castle Pin" which will be a four part series :D when we asked the girls knew nothing about it *shrugs* but if it is going to be 4 part series one would conclude that it will be one from the series released each quarter, and that the princesses will be Aurora Cinderella Belle and Snow White? no?

Heres my collection so far :D (plus a couple of multiples lol I now have 3 Stitch Paddy's day LE ooops



I also just ordered the rest of the online ed  :oops: and the other valentines one :S this is going to proove expensive

Hey Guys

This isnt a trial, that has already taken place. Layards will be in store early march and cast members will begin trading mid march with a selection of dlrp pins so you wont trade with the same ones you can buy. There are also gonna be disney store exclusive cast member pins only availiable if you trade.

Pin are available in all stores and the till point

Today's Aquistations: Buzz Lightyear, Lightning McQueen and Mickey & Friends.
These take my collection up to 4 not bad considering I only had my first one last week!

Nearly bought one of the two valentines ones (Lady and the Tramp, The Muppets: Kermit and Miss Piggy) but chose the Mickey and Friends one that just so happened to be the store last one!

Roll on online sales I will be getting a couple more to the arsenal so by Teaching practise alongside these little treasures I will have a variety of Pixar themed waistcoats (That is If I can get hold of the fabrics - although Duvet covers might be handy in that respect)

Well Valentine has been nice to me... Another 3 Pins (I did Want 5... But Wendybird1 was cruel and heartless and prohibited me to 3)

WALL-E, Bolt & Mickey: Sorcerers Apprentice

Taking my collection to 8: 8? You may ask... Pan's only bought 3 and had 4 from Wendybird1

But a friend in Uni wanted to do some trading... and I gave her nothing... for a Sleepy from DLRP!

So 8 Pins!

Quote from: "Owain"Went in cardiffs disney store today and i couldnt find any pins  :(
Where are they situated in other stores ?

Owain: The Pins are located at the checkout in Caerdydd! Small Silver Frame with Black board (well thats what it was last time I was in our Capital!) Keep Searching!

Apparantly according to the Cast Members in Cambridge they are still being trialled to see if they take off in the 'smaller' stores
(unlike the trial pins in the 14 stores)
They want to see how successful they are before they start actual trading

Clare: I noticed that earlier! I guess its another release that hasnt been mentioned yet
