Hey all! I'm Danielle, I really am not active on this forum like I used to be but I still check in from time to time. I have several PoDMs that I have acquired through trading- mostly when I was busy trading every single day haha. All of my scenes are, I think, pretty darn good. I've sort of hoarded them for no reason. I don't want to keep them forever, but I guess just haven't been active attempting to trade them off.

BUT anyway, the real point of this post is my Lion King PoDM. I remember what were the very difficult to attain scenes from when the pins were first released. I saw a lot of inquiries about the lion cub bathing scene, the grubs on a platter, the scar scene, and of course the Circle of life pride rock was what I saw being the sort of creme-de-le-creme. Now, when I return to the forum, Lion King Collections and PoDM collections always catch my eye to see if anyone has my scene, as I've never seen anyone looking for it, or displaying it. It has three big characters in great view, but I wonder because I've never seen any inquiries where it stacks up with the others? Have I just been missing posts about it, or is it less incredible than it seems?

Take a look at the picture and let me know what you think. I'm really looking for the general value or wondering if you have this scene yourself.

Thanks all!! Have a great day :)
 
I think that's a great scene, certainly one that I can't remember seeing before. But maybe our Lion King collectors ... @Romancing_Train @AvatarAng1 ... will know more and be able to help you.

Alternatively, I seem to recall @Pin-A-Colada knew just about everything about PODMs ... maybe he could help you figure out how to 'value' this particular scene?
 
So this is a "sort of or niche grail scene. The most expebsuve grail is simba timon and pumbaa in the jungle, followed by scar and simba face to face.

This falls in the relm of scars paw on simbas head. Its as rare as this pin scenes, however becsuse of the distasnce and how small the characters are its not as popular.

Lion King podms though have retained a goid a mount if value, lower ones are still about 80$, nice ones are about 120 or so. Id put this in the 120 to 140
 
Im also always looking for PODMs so if you have any for trade let me know.

When it comes to the scene its a good one. Not among the best or most wanted but a good one. The estimated guess among the ones that are really into podms are that there are about 80 pins with this scene out there. Of course non exactly the same but from that scene in the movie where all 3 characters are in view.
According to the same people the most rare scenes where it is belived to only excist about 6-7 pins with that scene are:
Rafiki holding Simba close up
Baby Simba being lifted up
Simba pouncing Zazu

I only have these descriptons in text so Im not entirely sure exactly how these scenes look.

Also just because the scenes are rare does not mean they are the most wanted.

I would say the most wanted is a scene of Simba, Pumba and Timon walking on the log with the moon in the background but so far I dont think there are any proof that scene ever was made.
 
Add me to the list of PODM collectors looking for trades. And I am not at all particular about what the scene is. Just that it's one of the movies I still need per my pinpics wants (ajk).

@Ajk... spot on comment for how I collect PODM too.
Coming late to the game of PODM... being too picky about the scene is not really an option for me. Just wanted one of each that fit my collection... and my collection decisions were made based more on the pin frame than the image.

I think the scene in this LK PODM is cute... sorry not much help on value. :)

Values are always a little hard to determine with these, but I would definitely say this is probably on the lower side of the spectrum considering it's a more common scene.

It's still a great pin (every PODM is) but there are lots of scenes with other characters that are monetarily more sought after than this one. :)
 
Did someone mention PoDM's...

Well that perked me up...

We have a few of these(a little over 300 of them) and that scene is very nice...

The posts above are pretty much spot on value wise...

As far as trader value it is tough as there are only a few wise souls who understand the beauty that is the PoDM...

OMG, @Goofy_Moe is back again! :D I wasn't sure if you had kept your PODMs.

It's good to see you back among the posting. I also wasn't sure if you kept your PODMs but I'm very glad you did. I remember how much time and effort you invested in your amazing collection and it would have been disappointing if you had broken it up.

Hi! Long time no see. You have my fantasy dream collection! I just have 25 so far but at least one of each thans to a lot of amazing people here. Ive recently started to get one of each of the fantasy ones as well but that is a hard one!
 
Thanks a ton for your input people, I really appreciate it! Also ditto to what the others are saying @Goofy_Moe good to see you are still around and flaunting your fat collection :)!

It is a beautiful scene! It’s been the one PoDM I have as a “trader” but still like to look at a liitttle extra lovingly hehe. But I will definitely make a post in “pin trading” with some pictures of my other trader PoDMs. I haven’t had any luck getting responses on pinpics so maybe this is the way to go. Thanks for your help everyone!
