Next Paris Event- Alice in Phantomland
Wow, that is awesome that you got TICKETS!

I will be doing my first big event probably some time in 2016...since I have my 3rd child born in August.

I saw that it was mentioned above that the flyer looked like the Tim Burton Alice logo....it is in fact the Tim Burton Alice Logo....I don't know if it matters at all or is in any way a sign of the pins to come...but it is the exact font Burton used for his movie.

I'm pretty excited to see some of the pins either way...hopefully there will be people willing to trade/sell some!
 
Congratulations to everyone who got tickets! I can't wait to see the pins for this event - they should be amazing!
 

Aaaaaaa. It's hard to tell but I think I will end up wanting them all. :D Alice in Victorian getup!

They're hard to make out but I think what's going on there is:
1. White Rabbit with a suit & pocket watch next to a grandfather clock
2. Alice in a long Victorian-ish dress sitting at a table with Madam Leota's crystal ball on it (and something in her hand, can't tell what)
3. Mad Hatter in black & purple version of his outfit facing the Bride who has a bouquet of red roses
4. This was hard to parse at first because I thought it was Ralph! Looks like Alice on left talking to Queen of Hearts kinda leaning forward and King of Hearts standing in front of her (King & Queen wearing top hats instead of crowns)
5. Alice cameo (text says Medallion so lanyard medallion I guess?)
6. Text says "Alice Locket"; design on front is gargoyle/wallpaper; wonder what's inside! (Probably Alice)
7. Looks like a card soldier? Text doesn't seem to include either "pique" or "trefle" (French for "spades" and "clubs") so I'm not sure.
8. Pretty sure it's the March Hare but after staring a while I can't tell what the green part is.
9. A ghost? Melanie's father maybe? I only rode PM twice in Paris & I don't remember all the details. I think I see the word "ghost" in the text.

Anyone seen any larger images out there?

That sounds pretty close to what i thought I saw! I think it's the March hare but there's definitely some kind of green ghost with him..i think... But yes, I hope a bigger picture will be found!!

Ooohhh my goodness, these pins look amazing. I too wish I could teleport there; also MAY 30th IS MY BIRTHDAY. Maybe I will wake up and magically be in Paris(x
 
Man I wish I could attend that event....it looks really amazing...those pins are awesome...I like the Alice pin on the far right...and the White Rabbit pin as well....
 
I will be pre-trading if anyone is interested when the better photos come out. As for selling close to cost- well it's a little unlikely considering most of us have to pay for travel and accommodations and the ticket for the event. My boyfriend might be interested in pre selling some of his because he's not really a collector. He just gets dragged to all the events so I don't have to be alone haha.
 
Better photos via Facebook.

The close ups are appreciated! Those are pretty awesome pins, I love all of them and I don't even collect Alice! I really love that Leota one, and the one with the Queen and King of Hearts.
 
Must say, I'm over-the-moon impressed with these. I'm not a huge fan of the Haunted Mansion (or creepy stuff in general ... too squeamish, ha ha) but these are ADORABLE. Thanks for posting the larger images! I'm dying (inadvertent pun, har har) to see what the Jumbo will be!!!!
 
I knew I should've ordered a ticket for these, suddenly some friends want help for these. Too late lol.

They look great! Especially the locket-ish pin of Alice. I hope the set will include Cheshire, with the surprise pins maybe.
 
Thanks soooo much for the close up....I really love most of these pins...I don't know that I understand what I am looking at with the bottom left pin..but all are truly AWESOME!

Bottom left is a locket pin; it will open to reveal ... something. Ha. I'm guessing we won't know until the event, when someone has the actual pin in hand to open and photograph ... unless there are any "previews" of the actual pins in the interim.
 
In going to this event too! I'm so excited. Is my first pin trading event ever. I'm going by myself cause it was just too expensive for my husband too. I was t phone for about 25 minutes waiting to get through. :)
