I don't collect princesses,but I have to say that set is pretty cool.
 
Local DS might still have them. Mine had last week's release yesterday. I'm hoping next week's release doesn't sell out with the raffle as I'm sending someone to pick it up around 4, instead of me being there at 12.
 
I was a bit disappointed with this past week's pins. The week prior they went live at 1 PM on Sunday and this past week, it seems that they went live at 3 AM. By the time I got online, they had already sold out. I'm hoping that I can find a set for a decent price online. If not, I may have to sell my week 1 pins because it's going to bug me so much to have this missing from the collection.

Also, unbeknownst to me, my wife had ordered the backpack set but then received an email a couple days after stating that the order was canceled because there was no more inventory. I'm glad she didn't tell me she ordered it beforehand, or it would have been even more disappointing. This pin-trading stuff is intense.
 
All Disney Store releases "technically" go online at Midnight Pacific Time.
However, the site usually refreshes any time after Midnight but usually around 12:45am. This means you must be online at Midnight and refreshing the website/searching for "30th anniversary pin" until it shows up (this is advice from multiple doll releases).

Because of the increased interest, they probably will sell out quicker and quicker, so if you're not online at midnight then it'll be hard to get them the next day.

Both weeks went live at like 3am central time, week 2 just sold out much faster.

In my experience, the first week of weekly or bi-weekly releases don't sell as quickly as the following weeks. Not everyone knows about it the first week but by week two or three, everyone who wants the pins (or dolls) knows about the releases.
 
I found these on the Hot Topic website:

I'm not sure if anyone on here is as much of an Ahsoka fan as I am, but they're two cents and may come with an autograph from Ashley Eckstein. I may have ordered 10...
 
Been following several Facebook pages and calling a few stores and if you guys know anyone who can do pick-ups in Chicago or Calgary they still have sets from week 1 and 2!!! Some stores in California still have multiple sets. Looks like they didn't sell as fast in store as it did online. I can try finding out which store in California still has them if there is any interest...
 
When I was at the Disney Store in Orlando today they still had a few week 2 sets left. I would probably call before heading that way though if you wanted to be sure to not make a wasted trip!
