Oh! KRONK!!!! I love that pin! It's so far out of reach, though. If anyone gets that framed set and wants to break it up, please think of me!

I don't think I can handle the Ellie's funeral pin. 🙁
 
Thankfully I only need 4 pins... Maleficent, Si & Am, Ursula, and Old Hag.

Now if they added Diablo to the Small but Mighty set, I would definitely that too!! :lol:
 
Wow, I didn't think they could really get this event wrong and overall...I'm not too pleased 😛 I was actually considering making this my first pin event BUT there just aren't enough pins I'd get (plus the dates are difficult to work around with my schedule until next year).

The only one I'm really interested in for my collection is the Ariel slider, but there are a few other nice sets.

I read that people think the "For Every Joke there is a Tear" set is distasteful, but I think it's great. The reason I love pins is because they are physical representations of great Disney moments. Those sad moments are some of the greatest Disney moments and I think it's time they finally get recognition. Although they definitely did not include the saddest moments:

- Pocahontas waving goodbye to John Smith
- Fox and the Hound ending
- Toy Story 3 ending
- Toy Story 3 furnace scene

SO MUCH MISSED POTENTIAL!!!!
 
The only two pins I really want are the Mickey & Minnie jumbo, Ohana means family, and Walt Disney pin. The rest are nice but I'm not going to break the bank trying to get them.
 
I really need that Walt pin. The maleficent pin is nice too. Those are the only ones I pin after. To bad I will probably never see them.
 
Only need the 2 Lion King pins, so if anyone forms a co-op, please let me know!! Thx in advance.
 
I am a little confused with the RSP process as this is my first ever event so I want to make sure I do it right.

I understand the concept and how it all works but I wanted to ask people was that can you walk away with more than one pin from this RSP process? Or will you only be getting one pin? For example say I put in my first three preferences with the first being the lowest LE size and I end up getting that pin so because I was able to get my first preference does that mean all subsequent preferences are then null and void because the first one was satisfied? Or do they run it based on the pin? i.e if the pin is still available and is your second preference will you still be awarded that pin even though you already got your first preference? I know the chances of this happening may be slim but I just wanted to check as this would affect the weight on my selections.
 
Do you have to select the merchandise you want before the event ? I really would like the celebration of music framed set. If someone is able to pick me one up, please let me know ! I am planning to put up a wanted thread, but I think it is a little bit too early for that

Each Item gets a separate chance based on how many people ask for them. You might want to read this - http://www.disneynow.com/accounts/r...wdwtradingevent2014/RSPFAQImaginationGala.pdf
 
Love the figment but I was looking for a sculpt and there isn't one for my figment shrine which is a shame. I am surprised there isn't a merchandise catalogue as well as there ae ony 16 items of which three are framed set at let the edition sizes area bit better than last year

yeah, you get all the items you asked for, right down the list, UNLESS it sells out (because people put it higher on the list than you did, and there weren't enough). They just keep going until they run out. If you get your number 1, they still go down your list and draw stuff. The numbering is just the order they draw in, so people get their priorities.

So if you enter 40 items for your 1st RSP, and none of them sell out, then you get all 40. And if you want multiples of them same 40 pins, so you fill out RSP 2 and 3 exactly the same way, you keep getting items until they run out.

Normally, I get everything I ask for in my first run, then sometimes I'll ask for doubles on the ones I think will be good traders on 2 and 3, and that's when I start to not get stuff (especially the LE 300s and lower).

Thanks for link. I actually read that first before posting my question as it didn't answer my question because it didn't state whether or not you were able to get multiple pins or if it is based on your first preference. Eg if you get the first item you select then your remaining choices are then void. But yeah thanks for clearing that up Abyssinian28, I also was not sure that I would be able to get the pins I wanted as I always thought these pin events a re crazy but by the sounds of it it shouldn't be too bad.

You are right about the Toy Story 3 furnace scene! There is so much emotion there. I watch it with my toddler all the time and it's amazing. These life-long friends preparing to die together, hand in hand, it just gets me.
