Alrighty! So now that all of my pins have come in, I can share my new displays!!

I have shown the Gaston one before, but not here I realized! So here it is:



My what a guy!! Sorry that the picture is blurry, but my phone is being weird and I was too lazy to hunt for new batteries in my camera lol!

I am so thankful and grateful for all of the pins in this collection...it has really surprised me with how fast it has taken off! I have acquired almost all of the hard to find Gaston pins, thanks to some amazing members with sales and gifts!! I couldn't have done it without DPF! After the Villains event is over, I am going to have to slow down on my main squeeze here, because I love this sketch but I won't have much space left!! I'm pretty content with where my collection will be at though, once those new beauties are out!

It is hard for people to understand my passion for Gaston...its probably best for you not to question it! :naughty:

And thennnnnn my DFDC pins have a place of honor all on their own:



I figured....why take them out of the box, when they have that nice little glowing thing going on?? So I popped them on this frame stand I had and wah-la! Instant display! For boxed sets sometimes I think this is the way to go!!

Thanks for checking out my pins!
 
I don't think you know how jealous I am of your Gaston collection. I started collecting him about four months ago and getting pins of him are just so difficult... I imagine I'll be looking at your collection and day dreaming about it for a while.
 
okay. I can honestly say I am jealous, I love.. and I mean seriously love Gaston, and can never explain it... so maybe whenever I get asked the question as to why I can field it to an expert like you. But anyways it is a lovely collection.

Yay! Another person infatuated with him! Lol. He definitely has something about him that you love to hate...or hate to love...or both!! Thank you so much!

I've managed to get the 13 pin, the PTD and both of the pins featuring Gaston [well his statue] from the New Fantasyland mystery box, and a pin featuring Gaston from Thanksgiving a few years ago, but it has several other characters on it as well. I was at the Pin Trading Event in WDW during my stay in Orlando, and no one had any Gaston pins, minus the thanksgiving one that I managed to get. He really doesn't get much love, but still it seems to be really hard to find Gaston pins, especially older ones

Laughs totally understand, he needs more love with all merchandise. I really love the sketch, last time I asked for one they only had him in the pose flexing (sadly it was not well done) but that one just is like GASTON (yes again issues) when I saw the show on broadway I squealed like a little girl, then again I did the same thing last week when I saw a cute guy dressed as him at the convention.

Very cute Alex! So glad that, so far (knock on wood) the ds.com DFDC pins have not had any error Snow White/Prince pins!
 
Wow, I have to say, I'm not a Gaston-fan, but that display could convert a person :lol: Both of your displays look great, congrats on the DFDC set and good luck getting all the Gaston pins to go all the way around that photo
 
What a great display idea for your Desiner collection! They look fabulous! And for Gaston, well...

No one's slick as Gaston
No one's quick as Gaston
No one's neck's as incredibly thick as Gaston's
For there's no man in town half as manly
Perfect, a pure paragon!

Pretty awesome collection you have there!
 
Very fun Gaston collection! Maybe you wouldn't want to put holes in the artwork, but if you wanted, you could put more pins in the white area.
 
Your pins look great! I LOVE that Gaston display. I don't collect Gaston but your pins almost make me want to change my mind. Congrats on managing to snag a Couples set too! I'm happy for you
 
I love Gaston too, mostly for the triplets that swoon over him and he completely ignores time and time again for Belle! I think there is something very sweet about his obsession with her... it does add to the romanticism of the Beauty and Beast tale. But I think if I had to collect an unusual character it would be the triplets!

This collection is so cool! I love the artwork! And as for your DFDC pins...:drool: total slobber fest!!! Those pins are such works of art!

Happy Collecting!

Chrissy
 
This is incredible! I recently bought a Gaston pin, because I realized I had no pins of him, and he's one of my favorites! So, my one pin can hardly compare, but what a great inspiration! So cool
