Beauty and the Beast PODM :)

[disneygirl333]

Hi everyone, I'm a newbie here and through discovering this board, I have also discovered PODMs. I just heard that Beauty and the Beast PODMs will be released on thanksgiving day this year. I would dearly love one of these pins. Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorites and an all time classic. I would like to purchase one as close to retail as possible since I am a teen. Is anyone willing to go to the event at WDW and get one for me? I have a few scenes in mind that I'd like and I will add pictures below of them, but I'd just love to have one as I've never had a PODM pin before.

Please PM me with any offers or post them here in this thread. Thank you so much for looking at this and I hope someone will be able to help me out with this .

If you are able to get someone to get you a PODM, there's no guarantee of scene, typically no option to choose amongst the scenes that the collector gets.

It's going to be hard to find someone selling you close to retail because (1) PODMs are sought after; (2) this release is on Thanksgiving Day (unless it's been changed) so unless the person has an AP, there is only one location at DLR and one location at WDW (DTD) that is accessible to someone without an AP; (3) one person is limited to two pins and the primary reason someone is going to go DLR or WDW on T-Day is because he or she collects the pin. Rumors are that WDW is going to have a wristband release too which would severely limit someone from park-hopping.

Good luck, though!

Plus, it would be a good idea to put your location down (whether you are in the US or abroad) so that if someone is willing to help, that person will know.

Thank you Jadeite-lady! As for the price, I have seen Mulan PODMs pre-sell here for $45-50+ and that's fine with me, I am just not willing to pay close to $100 for one. What is an "AP", might I ask?

I am on the East Coast of the United States.

I hope they do change the date.That seems really out there for Disney to release PODMs of such a classic and fan favorite film on a Holiday, especially Thanksgiving Day!

Just in case someone does get the chance to choose, for scenes I'd like pretty much anything with Belle in it. Her in her ball gown, her during the "Belle" number, "Be Our Guest", or "Something there"... I also like Lumiere and Mrs. Potts as well.

Thank you!

I spoke with someone at the circus event and they said when they picked all POTM releases on The third Thursday of the month they did not think of holiday but at that time they were not going to change the release date, I am glad it is on that day so my husband and kids can go and get me more then if I went. as of wristbands I have not heard anything of that the Mulan release went really well I guess I will find out more on November 2 the next PTN

Thank you torianne-2008! I still hope they'll change it.. I hope someone can help me!

An AP is an annual passport. This allows admission into the parks on various days. I don't know how WDW does their APs (they have various ones) but for DLR, the only APs that let you into the parks on Thanksgiving (without having to pay a $60-70 block-out day fee) is the Premium (good for 365 days of admission) and the Premier (good for both DLR and WDW, 365 days).

The PODM pins are released on the 4th Thursday of each month and for November, happens to fall on Thanksgiving Day.

For pre-buying, if you can't find someone here, you might consider ebay. I've seen a lot of pre-sales for other PODMs around the price you are looking for ($49.99), although I don't recall if that price includes shipping.

Thanks again jadeites lady! I will try there if no one here can help.

Bump!

Yep. Especially because Beauty and the Beast is such a popular movie and a lot of people collect it. There are plenty of helpful and generous members in the pin trading community, but this release is definitely going to be a rough one. Good luck on your search

Thank you for the good luck wishes! I am looking for around $40-$50 for one PODM. Anyone?

I would REALLLLLLY LOVE to have someone pick me up a couple!! I just bought one PODM little mermaid from someone on here and can't wait to get it in the mail. If anyone is willing or would take the time to pick me up one or two please PM ME!! Thanks.

And disneygirl333 if I see someone on here helping out with getting one I'll let them know your interested too.

Hi, everyone,

I'm a newbie, too, and I just started collecting with the PODMs. Beauty and the Beast is my all-time favorite Disney movie, so I would love to have one or two pins from this movie. So, if anyone can help me, please PM me.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you alx08! I will definitely do the same for you! I am also looking for any Little Mermaid PODMs as that is my All-time favorite movie and I had no idea PODMs existed when they released pins for this movie. Here is the scene I'd like, ideally, but I'd take just about anything.

I'm still looking for a Beauty and the Beast PODM!

Yes!! That's exactly like me with Alice PODM pinS. I had no idea of PODM pins until last month and I was in awe. lol
