Art of Aurora US Pin Release?
Servant of the Dark Fairy
The truth of the matter is I'm glad the US doesn't announce it. Is it mean? Yes. But if the US announced it like the UK did, we'd have everyone staying up on the nights of the surprise releases (when everyone who is up is just betting on it) and then the pin would be really hard to get if your instincts are right O_O I know 3am is ridiculous since I'm an east coaster too but you gotta do, what you gotta do.
I really hadn't thought about it like that. I guess its a win/loose situation no matter how you look at it, as people are going to have advantages and disadvantages either way.
While it's possible the pin will occasionally show up throughout the rest of the morning, the Frozen pin was a very odd occurrence because they sold out before the site even updated and then later on in the evening, 100s came back up for sale, not just 1 or 2, hundreds. I do think this pin is sold out since it was available for purchase for all of like 2.5 minutes. Congrats to everyone that got 1, it appears this pin is LE500 after all.
After it had sold out, I got it in my basket and made it all the way through the checkout process at first. But once I got to the area where the Disney Store processes your payment, it took me back to the checkout screen and said ERROR with a bunch of code and such. So I think its safe to say that this is completely sold out as of now even if its still on the Disney Store's website for most of the day.
