DSF/DSSH DSSH February 23, 2020 Event at Disneyland Hotel
Thanks for posting about this @starry_solo . I think the pins are sweet, but fortunately for me, there's only one pin that I need - and it's for my mum. If at all possible, I would be interested in a co-op so I can get it for her.Or purchase them in a coop!
Well, never fear, one will be coming. I hope to have mine posted in the next day or so. Keep an eye out as it will be first-come-first-served!Thanks for posting about this @starry_solo .

Would really love to go. Highly considering the Trading Package, but does anyone who has gone to the past events know that Trading Package holders come in once the boards are brought out? I've only gone to the Dumbo event (last year March) and I remember the first half was just the lunch and some games before the boards came out.
Wish you could go too.Wish I could go.
I have gone to a few of these. Sometimes on the expensive package and sometimes the lower trading package. This Feb. 23 event seems very similar to the Pinsgiving event DSSH held just before Thanksgiving, 2018. It was also at the Disneyland Hotel and allowed for 400 attendees. I bought the trading package and was pleased with my investment. Some observations:Would really love to go.

This Feb. 23 event seems very similar to the Pinsgiving event DSSH held just before Thanksgiving, 2018. It was also at the Disneyland Hotel and allowed for 400 attendees. I bought the trading package and was pleased with my investment. Some observations:
1) For the 2 tier events, pin boards are brought out usually about 45 minutes prior to the trading packages getting into the event. So if you have the expensive package, I would guess you could get through the lines 2-3 times prior to the lower package attendees entering.
2) Boards are refreshed regularly throughout the event, so both packages will have the chance of fresh boards.
3) The Pinsgiving event was crowded (with the potential for 400 attendees.) The lines were long and my board pulls were pretty average... (ie, not really exciting). At the Dumbo event the lines were shorter and I pulled two grails. I am sharing this because I am anticipating the 23Feb event will be similar to Pinsgiving and not Dumbo (although the board pulls might improve if DSSH actually increases the number of board lines to accommodate the increase in attendees.)
4) The trading package does miss the dinner and games, but not a great loss IMHO (especially with a mark up of $155 for dinner, games, an extra PTD voucher and the marquee.)
I still have not fully decided, but leaning towards the lower package... just to cut down on the expense.
Hahaha... we are so on the same page.Thanks for your insight. Also my thoughts exactly for #4. The trading package is my first choice but I guess I’ll have to settle with the sweetheart package if it doesn’t work out.

Same here here butttt, any stock to chatter that ‘set 5’ may be a surprise? Have they ever done anything like that before?

Awwww...I was starting to get excited by the idea of surprise pins.Response from DSSH regarding 5 pin sets:
- "It is a typo, we updated the pin flyers on Friday in the event page with the correct labeling. Sorry for the confusion!"
Agreed. A surprise pin would have been fun.Awwww...I was starting to get excited by the idea of surprise pins.

Agreed... I didn't find them either. Thanks for confirming. I kept thinking I was missing something.Hmm, where are the updated pin flyers? I can't find them in the event page...

That would be a great surprise and very cute. I hope you are right.I believe the farewell gift aka surprise pin will be a colored marquee of the diecast version....what do you think @TheMickeyMouseRules
