Got a new pin, but can't find it on pinpics

Hi all,

I'm trying to update my collection information on pinpics (same username as here), but I can't seem to find a new pin I bought this past weekend at Epcot. It's a limited edition (750 according to the stamp on the back of the pin) of a steampunk version of Minnie Mouse on a yellow, wheeled horse. I bought it at the pin shop behind Spaceship Earth (though I also saw it available at Pin Traders at Downtown Disney in Florida.) I can't seem to find it listed anywhere on pinpics, and even googling it doesn't bring up any matching results. Does anyone know what the proper name of this pin is so I can try and find it and add it to my 'owned' list on pinpics?

Thanks for any help or tips on finding information on this pin.

On the back of the pin, in the box that says "Limited Edition of 750", it says "5 of 6" underneath it, but I can't, for the life of me, figure out what set it's a part of. I figured the set must have had previous releases since this appears to be the 5th one in the set. I just thought it was a really cool looking pin that I liked the look of, so I picked it up without even realizing that it was a part of a set. I'm still very new to pin collecting, so I just have no idea where else to look to find the information about it. I can't find it on pinpics, or on the Disney Parks Merchandise pins listing, so hopefully someone will be able to figure out what set it's a part of, so I can add it to my pinpics and also see if I like any of the other pins in the set to see if it's worth trying to get whatever the others are, or if I just want to stick with this one. In any case, I want to thank you for responding, and hopefully I'll be able to figure out what it is exactly eventually.

Thanks again!

It was released just on Thursday and is a "surprise" pin so prob just hasn't been added yet.. But it's as stated the 5th pin in the mechanical kingdom set.. I rather like the set
 
Thanks for the info! That looks to be the set that it's a part of, and wow! I really do like the others in the set (especially the Mickey in the car one!) Now I guess there's some new things to add to my 'want' list. I appreciate the help and the links, Greenhpper!

Crud, I hadn't seen this series before... I love steam punk and mechanical things... how many collections is too many?

:lol:
 
I still haven't figured that answer out yet, Ninpin! If you were to ask my wife, I'm sure she'd say I've already started too many collections, but for my own taste, I feel like I've barely scratched the surface! That said, I really, really love the looks of this steampunk "Mechanical Kingdom" series. I just hope I can find more of them, and I'll certainly be keeping an eye out for the last one in the set (which, judging by what already has been released, I'd expect would have Goofy featured on it.)
