Now that I've had time to process (and breathe, haha), a few random thoughts:
1. Catastrophic error on Disney's part, releasing so many awesome pins. Now, instead of saving up for a WDW vacation, I'll take allllllllllll the $$$ I might've used for that, and TRY to get as many of the adorable Alice pins as I can. And since I won't get any at cost (unless I am fortunate enough to win a Timeerkat raffle--yay, Tessa!), Disney is not getting my gazillions of dollars--the resellers are. You think you win, Disney, but you really lose.
</sarcasm>
2. I'm not a Hidden Mickey collector (unless it's Alice and it's really cute), but I agree with hopemax that I'm excited about the Queen and King of Hearts bathroom signs. Mostly because if I can grab those, I will no longer ever be tempted to spend too much on the existing versions! For once, yay, repeating designs!
3. Can we just take a moment to bask in the glory of that fan series from WDI? Not just because it is bee-yoo-tee-ful, but because that entire series is princesses (of course!) but when it came time for pin #12 in the set, THEY SKUNKED FROZEN AND MADE IT ALICE. I still love Frozen, but when someone puts Alice ahead of any princess (even not-official-Disney-princess-line princesses), my heart sings. (While my wallet cries.) I know WDI loves Alice, but still ... Unless they're going to do a super-jumbo fan with Anna and Elsa to "complete" the set, in which case I am very glad I stopped collecting Frozen and I am super-sorry for those who still do.
