2018 Pin Releases
Cindy looks like her mascara is running a little bit, and Tink has her arm broken, but I STILL WANT THEM ALL GOSH DANG IT. Tink is still the #1 priority, but I can see myself trying to get the rest once the hype dies down (or if I magically am able to purchase a framed AP set at retail or something. That would be the dream. I know they did it for the Villains.)
 
I need them all, but Maid Marian is my favorite.

Ugh. The real pins are as disgustingly gorgeous as we all feared. (Photo from disney_pin_universe on IG.)

I thought she'd be "just OK" so I wasn't too worried about getting her. But she actually looks really, really pretty and would make a nice centerpiece for my new collection. ;) There's no way I'm going to be able to get both. Priority would be Alice, but I bet I could find Snow for less ... Ha ha ha ha ugh.

So how does it work for MOG releases? I guess it's in-store first.. do people line up hours ahead of time like they do for DSF releases? Is it first come first serve (unlike DSF)?

Normally no, there's no line ups, CMs just go up to the store on the day of and can grab whatever they want...

That said, when my friend went over to MOG to try to snag me my Marian at 10am, he said there is a humongous line, and that a lot of it is park CMs that drove up for the release... he couldn't spare an hour or two to not working, so he had to leave without getting the pin...
 
Woah, they do look lovely... Especially Maid Marian, such a cutie! I also really like the pixie dust falling on Wendy, great scene.

And Aurora is so much better than on the preview, I love her eye for example. Although her right hand is kinda weird, but still acceptable. They just had to make her background one of my 2 fav colors too lol. And the worst thing? It's very possible that Pocahontas will get my other fav color, they use orange for her all the time, haha... ha... sigh. In all seriousness, these are the kind of pins that I don't even add to my wants on Pinpics because I know it's useless. :confused: Good luck to others!

PS. Is it just me or do Alice's and Snow's forearms look a little bit off?
 
Yeah, there was a pretty huge line lol I got there at 10:10 and there were maybe 85 people in front of us? We didn’t end up buying the pins until 11:48. Here are some closeups, though. They’re gorgeous pins!

Congrats. I just got off the phone with them. They already sold out.
 
I love the details in the background. I feel like they're more noticeable than the villain profiles?

womp womp.. good luck to those who are ISO of these!!

Wow. Those really are gorgeous. Congratulations! I didn't really think I would want any of them as they are not quite my thing, but I really love that Alice. And Tink is pretty special too. (They are all great of course, but those more align with what I collect.) Well, since I don't spend multi-hundred dollars on individual pins, and don't have some other super rare WDI or DSF pin to trade, guess there is really no need for me to worry about it. Sigh.

Thank you for this. When I am unsuccessful in acquiring them, I'll remind myself that I DON'T COLLECT BODYBUILDER SNOW WHITE! :D

There are anatomy issues across several of the pins...
The ones that stand out to me the most are Tink's arm and Cinderella's neck... makes the blow of not being able to have these a little less intense

I've never previously heard of people having to line up for WDI/MoG releases UNTIL THIS ONE. Someone on IG posted that they waited in line for 1.5 hours. I'm just kind of appalled that there even has to be a line for what's supposed to be CM-only pins.

Oh, and as far as I can deduce, it's first-come, first-serve. Hadn't really used to be a problem before. :/
