I understand it would work out a bit cheaper but since they are available to buy on there own anyway then would be alot easier to buy them that way than try to save a few £££ as its not like they are offering a second chance to get the on-line exclusives since they are still available to buy on there own, it would appeal more (i think) if the mystery pins would be of past sold out pins.

i also think its a shame that there doing this to get rid of old stock,it would be fantastic to get a proper mystery set,would be fun collecting.

Just want to wish everyone good luck at the event saturday,just wish i was goin too.

I agree, I hope we get a mystery set soon, but if they go off the sales of this mystery set then we might not get another but thats down to them shifting old stock and not us wanting to buy it as we would if they were new pins :)

and if we get a mystery set Id like to see low LEs like the DS.com ones

Does anyone know if the stores are likely to get any more nametag pins in as i am still looking for the Mickey pin.

Also which up pin is free with the set of 4 mystery UK online exclusives? Is it just the Vue cinema pin?

Well this time at the Disney Store I ended up with one purchase and five trades..  :mrgreen:

Here is the purchase, which I really like.. Pinocchio's 70 Anniversary, I must admit I wasn't expecting the arms to move, also it's only £5.00, I thought it might have been £7.00..  :o



Now for the trades, some of which Jen picked, I'll let you guess those ones..  :mrgreen:

Just one short for this 'Kite Collection' now, and guess who....  :(



A couple of Tink's





Love this "I'm a Disney Pincess" one..  :mrgreen:



I couldn't believe my final trade, I got talking to Victoria (CM) and the time we called into the store, I remember that night she had the lanyard round her neck with all the 'Character Name Tag' Pins on. Foolish me said I'll have to get some Pins to trade next week and come back, only to find they had been snapped up like hotcakes. Bang went the theory of getting Donald..  :cry:  Then she thought for a minute and said, "Hang on a minute, if I remember rightly I remember seeing one in the draw, it's in one of the envelopes at the bottom I think". She raked through and sure enough found the last Donald one they had. I couldn't believe my luck..  :o

Whooo Hooo..  :D/  :D/  :mrgreen:

This one is going to take pride and place on the lanyard I use for DLRP..  :D

Just seen on facebook, that there may be suspected scrappers of the Easter Thumber UK pin. Seems from the comparison images (thankyou Donna) that it points to it has been scrapped. Hope not but all signs pint to yes.

Gutted i missed out on Milton Keynes. Wasn't that kean on the shield set to be honest but the trading and buying opportunities were fantastic.

going on a short notice trip to lakeside tomorrow - first ever trading there. Then in 2 weeks plan to hit all 3 disney stores in London again.
