2018 Pin Releases

I found it at the one in Simi Valley.

ETA: I was in a hurry to get to DSF for the new PTDs and had tunnel vision for Inside Out, so I didn't take a good look at the rest of the rack to know all of the ones they had available. But I do remember they also had The Good Dinosaur, since it was immediately next to Inside Out.
 

That is a really good point
 
I'm still at wdw, and my phone is older than mulan's ancestors, so I can't post much now, but I'm surprised there's not more chatter about the wdi popup. I know there's one small thread, but I expected a bigger uproar. Is it just happening over on fb? I know people are probably just trying to forget and move on, too...I was just curious at how little I was seeing about it.
 
So I attended the MOG store event at WDW today and this is what transpired.

I had the 1100am-noon time slot to shop in the store. The MOG store opened today to D23 Gold members at 900AM as the first shopping time slot. What’s important to note is that this was billed as a D23 Gold Member event, and you pay about $105 per year for the family membership. I get into the store and the ONLY “Character Cluster” pin left is “Home on the Range” – WHAT!!

There were about 20 pins released at the Event, LE 250, and 2 hours into the Event open to ONLY D23 Gold Members this is all that’s left?? I asked to speak to the MOG Manager and this is what I was told – “We had Imagineers in on Thursday. Cast Members in on Friday, and everyone had an EQUAL opportunity to get the pins”. Wait a minute - if this is a D23 sponsored event (read paid for by a D23 member) why isn’t the Imagineer day and CM day AFTER the Event rather than BEFORE it??? That’s the way it has been done in the past and I have attended ALL D23 events for the past few years in WDW!

The Manager is looking past me and giving me the line about how this is not like the November D23 Events in WDW – all the while not looking me in the eye at all. I told her that what the heck does the November events have to do with what is happening here today, and as a professional, please look at me when you are talking to me. One of the most unprofessional people I have ever dealt with and this is after working on Wall Street for 25 years.

Ergo, already the pins are up on all of the Auction sites for 6x what they cost. I hope Disney is going after the CM’s that are doing this – not a lot of hope for the pure Pin Collector.

Uh oh, there's a China based seller on the bay with some of the new clusters. So far I've only noticed the ENG pin...

The one with the zero feedback? There are a lot of Asian-based and Australian-based scammers with zero feedback who use photos found on the internet for their listings, usually in an attempt to phish information from unsuspecting buyers. Think about it, they would have your name, address, telephone number (possible) and PayPal email address....

Yes! Gonna have to track this one down and the other two individual Nick and Judy pins. This spinner sold out, but being OE, I'm sure it will restock.
