Windows of Magic Pin Release
Thank you.Not crazy as in disorganized, but very packed very early. Some people having been arriving at 5a. They sell out by 9:30a.
That’s what I figured.I arrived at 8:30AM to buy Ariel. I did not gain her. She sold out in DTD right before I arrived. She sold out in little green men during magic hour. She was still in stock at Pin traders in Frontierland (only because they were not open during magic hour). But the line was so long by the time I arrived to Pin Traders she was effectively sold out for me. It was a huge disappointment all the way around and a waste of time.
I agree... I am anticipating a mickey to go with chernabog... Which I will definitely want. Here's hopin' we are correct.Chances are Ariel was one of the last crazy window releases for awhile, I'm thinking till possibly Aladdin/Jasmine, Tiana, or Simba get released?
The windows seemed to be paired off with the windows of evil, and with the next 3 we're advised of, Hercules, Pongo, and Alice, unless resales are nuts for them, I doubt it'll sellout in an hour. I could be wrong, but crazy is usually determined by demand of the character/movie/set.
I heard Ariel sold out faster than Aurora.
Also as soon as AP blockouts start taking affect due to Galaxy's Edge, and the So CA 3 day tix ends, I'm guessing that will also change pin pickups for some, meaning the lines might be for DTD area, different in the parks.
It depends on which ones you're after? The next 2 will be a clue, or checking the selling sites for presales will also be a hint as to demand.
Good luck
Totally Agree!! I too thought of Sorcerer Mickey with Chernabog!I agree... I am anticipating a mickey to go with chernabog... Which I will definitely want. Here's hopin' we are correct.
I was pretty impressed with the DLR Crest series!WDI skipped Mr. Toad for the profiles set and the clusters set (which would have been amazing) and countless other sets that would have lent itself to a terrific Toad pin. Is it too much to ask for a Windows of Magic Mr. Toad?
Most people complain that there are too many of a character that they collect and can't keep up, I complain that there isn't enough. That's why I end up buying a Mr. Toad easter egg, First edition Mr. Toad children's book from 1980, and a weird old Mr. Toad and friends cube ornament for absolutely no apparent reason but to have something new of Mr. Toad coming in the mail. And that was just last week.

Need I mention who was first
Would definitely be a Nice Window, but probably not this series. With the popularity of this series, probably could branch off to so many characters.
Never know Mr. Toad could surprise us All, since the scrappers have hit the market.
Can always Dream
Okay so truthfully, hearing you talk about Mr. Toad this, and Mr. toad that, and more mr. toad, sharing your collection and count down to grails...I’m not a toad fan at all but I found it all so endearing that when the crest pins came out and started the series with Mr. Toad, I smiled and went, shutuPIN take my money haha...still not a crazy toad fan but that toad crest makes me smile nonetheless, as much as some of my favorite character pins actually...what I’m trying to say is, thank you, because you’re creating toad allies along the way...)

Although, I am tempted to buy a scrapper of it for comparison purposes and just to buy a new Toad something, maybe turn it into a magnet.
Ugh! So frustrating!
There is just something wrong with this sellers listing..
Must of had a lot of friends with him that day.
So around 11:30 last night, I convinced myself to purchase the toad crest scrapper and turn it into a magnet and put up on the fridge or somewhere. Newsflash this morning: I don't know how to turn a pin into a magnet!
Spending the day on Youtube!
Build relationships with other traders. In the past 3 years I really have improved my base of known traders. Not only for trading, but for advice.Speaking of magnets...so I got duped in a trade recently.
Traded in person for one of those last year Donut Shop pins. Trader had their donut shop wrapped in protective plastic. I thought, oh how thoughtful because we know those donut shop rubber pieces can get discolored easily. Made the trade, came home to put on my board, removed the plastic...and surprise! The magnet piece that holds the pin closed was gone...so my donut shop is permanently open...
...sigh...Pin trading is why I have trust issues.... if anyone knows how to fix, would greatly appreciate it...

Especially with all those backers!Ugh! So frustrating!
It could legit have been a factory error like that. Still frustrating. I have a couple of pins where the magnets don't work or are missing but better to have the pin than not.Speaking of magnets...so I got duped in a trade recently.
