2018 Pin Releases
I agree that they do look weird but I think Hades makes the most sense. He could totally impose his face on his back. Ursula scares me.
Hmmm... so they are villains. If they look scary in this starter set (and I also agree they pretty much do), would this be a Disney pin artist design slam dunk?
Fist bump for the pin artist... you hit the mark.


Edit: oh, and by the way... my first GIF post.

Edit: and that would be my second. Setting me loose on DPF with GIFs... I am going to give blame/credit to @Spr175psu

Lol when I first saw the villains set, I just zoomed in to a random pin, which happened to be Hades, and I was SO CONFUSED about what was going on with his head and his hair. I had to zoom out and look at the others before realizing - oh, they’re in the shape of their silhouettes. I thought it was just like Hades with microcephaly.

Congrats on the first GIF.

The pin artist was successful in making them frightful.

Who am I kidding?



 
Gah. I need to find a source for THREE of those LE Paris pins. I messaged a prior contact but she was just there this weekend and won't be back for months. My timing is terrible.
 
I may have missed it since I've once again been out of the loop for awhile, but does anyone know if DLR/WDW are skipping a LR/LE Ant-Man and the Wasp release? I know they usually release a new one for every new Marvel film, but I didn't see it on the June or July posters, though I've seen the OE on eBay
 
I think the last one or two have been surprise drops. So I would guess the Thursday before opening weekend.

I couldn't believe the forum was down, I had stuff to post.

From Instagram...

@timeerkat, another Cookie pin with what looks like a waffle has been release. This looks like it might be a gift for dining at the restaurant. Photo: IG welovehkdisney



New Shanghai pins released during their Pin Trading Fun Day. I don't think these were part of the initial preview. More Shanghai Frozen pins, which is an ugh for me. I am just getting my first ones with in a trade with @aleck2008 and now there are more. Photo: IG shdrbilly_disney_pins

 
I saw on Facebook that the next WDI release is going to be a mystery set for Pixar Pier. Each pin will have a stylized face of a different Pixar character. They remind me of the car part of the new Pal-A-Round ride cars.

24 pins in the set, unsure of LE size but my guess is 200 or 250. Limit of 12 mystery packs per cast member. I would guess one pin per mystery pack.
 

Cookie is gonna kill me...
 
Those chip n dale pins are so cute.
 
So my understanding of that Cookie pin, is you either have to buy a special tea party (or it might be a tea set), and then you still have to purchase the pin (so purchase with purchase, as opposed to gift with purchase). I guess people are not happy about the price point of the tea party, plus the cost of the pin, so not many people have been buying this one yet.
