2018 Pin Releases

Not to start a riot, but ... some princess sleepover scene pins would make a niiiiiice adjunct to the traditional WiR characters if they did an event! :D

They have the Vanellope Mystery Set coming out with the other princesses. I’m really looking forward to that. I need the whole set. lol

I know, but the faces on some of them bothered me (that's my pin pet peeve, haha). Having additional options would not be a bad thing! :D The mystery set is very cute, though, and at least Disney did *something* with the casual princesses!

Two observations:
1) There should be a Wreck it Ralph release...
2) There is only one release in November and the standard is usually two.
… so dare we hope this means November will be a DSSH pin trading event where the Wreck it Ralph will be released and some other amazing pins?
Here's hopin'!

or maybe a online release because the movie is based on the internet?

Okay, SHDR is killing me with all the Zootopia releases...

I really like the Judy carrot pen.

Nooooo, Shanghai, stahp! XD
 
So the new wave of Hidden Mickeys (debuted at the WDW pin event) are out at the parks, according to FB.

No word on the "old" wave - the one that was supposed to actually come out this year :P

Someone posted on FB that the 2018s are showing up in the blind bags.

Ok, wow. So the ones we thought were coming are in blind bags and the others that were previewed last month are on CM lanyards....ok....although I guess that is smart for Disney. They make $7/pin for what was supposed to be "free" for guests to trade with :D

NO! YOU STOP THAT NOW! WIR2 needs to be an in-store event because then I have somewhat of a shot at getting them myself. ;P (Assuming that Felix/Calhoun get some pin love for it. Still not sure how big of a role they play in it.)

I believe blind bags are now $16.95, so more like $16 profit...

Are these still the the Hidden Mickey mystery packs we are talking about? What color are the new ones?

Teal. They referenced an unbagging video but didn’t post a link.

ETA: I went back to the post and the video was on Instagram.

Dang! You'd think they would have just released them for "free" (with trade) for those of us who have been waiting and waiting and waiting....then we could have had a nice influx of 10 different sets! :D

These are the 2018 Wave A pins, which would normally move to the packs once the next wave hits. And I think the Wave B are on lanyards as per normal. Or did I misread something?

Nope, didn't misread. But wave A pins have never made it to the packs this fast. For past releases, they've been around for the entire year, although with wave B coming out, more people are typically after those.

It also used to be that the packs (Wave A and B) would be released after the completers were released.

Got ya. They certainly moved fast on getting these to packs.

I read somewhere that they said the wave A Pins for DLR were never ordered due to a miscommunication. The order was finally in, and they’ll show up on lanyards when they’re in. So if they’re in the blind baggies now, then they should start to show up on lanyards as well. Maybe for whatever reason the blind bag shipment just showed up first.

Sounds like a reasonable assumption.
