2018 Pin Releases
There's nothing from the March flyer I'll need for myself (except maybe Genie), but both might have a surprise that I'd want, so I'll probably show up anyway. I may be out of town for the flowers release, but if I am able to go and get a good number I should have Kevin available for sale (one or two, depending on how the rules are set for it).

They've started doing this in Disneyland, too! I noticed when I was there a few weeks ago. There were a few there, one of which was the newish OE Hakuna Matata (Simba, Pumbaa, and Timon crossing the log at night with the moon) and a similar sketch of the three of them. I was REALLY tempted to get it.

They've done framed sketches with pins at both DLR and WDW for many years. I don't know how many years ago I bought my first one but it was at least five, maybe six? And they'd already done them for at least a year or two before that, if not longer. And I enjoyed looking at all of them that were available on my trips to WDW at least five or six years ago as well.

I've seen then do it with OEs before, and some of the race pins. But never just a standard LE release. :) could be a promising new trend!

Problem is it cuts into the amount of the edition size available as individual pins (plus expensive! Which is why I try not to buy every Wonderland one I see. lol)

I don't see that as a problem if they use really high edition LEs. For instance, this WALL-E pin is LE 5,000, and the sketch frame is only LE50, so that's only 1% of the pins they pulled for this. But yes, they are expensive! I oogled the Lion King one but gave up on it since it was way more than I was willing to pay for it.

WOW. I didn't even know Bradford did Disney pins!! Does anyone know if they are stamped Disney on the back? Not that I'll be getting this...$420 plus tax, ouch. But some of those pins look pretty cool...I don't collect much beyond Jack, Sally and Zero, but man, do I like this set!
