2026 Pin Releases & Discussion

For those who have been around long enough to remember the Mickey's Mystery Machine pins from 2007.... and for those that only know the vending machines at the Disney Pin Celebration the last few years...

 
Really quiet month for me. I love the idea of the advent calendar, & if the pins were just the cookies I would be thrilled, but that each one is on a sheet pan makes the designs to repetative for me & they'll be really hard to display.
(This will be a really good thing if the bags for the next wave of Hidden Mickeys end up releasing this month.)

dude... wow. this is fascinating. i bet magic key discounts don't apply to these, right? if so, this is very well-disguised and well-designed greed because i still want to try one... they are so good at extracting wealth from us.

Yep! The $18 is a lot. I bet these are bigger than the original vending machine pins. However, those were $5 and people still thought they were too expensive! Lot of people waited to get theirs through trading. Adjusting for inflation, should have a floor of $8. So I could see given all the *waves hands* $10, $12 even maybe $15. But they went too far, and now I don't care.
