Have you seen this pin before??

[*fi_fi*tinkerbell]

Sooo... I popped in to the Oxford street store yesterday after a lovely day but rather chilly out at ZSL London Zoo, and spotted this on the cast lanyard, immediately i traded for it thinking it was the London exclusive from 2011 ( [pinpics]83956[/pinpics] ) that i had missed out on, but when i got home and went to add it to my collection on pinpics only then did it occur to me that it is a completely different pin! (Its not currently on Pinpics unless im being silly, and ive checked under all the obvious searches that i could think off - London, union flag etc)

It measures approx 4.5 cm x 4 cm and is backstamped 2012

Have i somehow ended up with an early release thats due for 2012?
Any Ideas, 'cause im baffled??

Not seeen it before but with the 2012 backstamp looks like it is definitely a new one - perhaps a cast member? Add it to PinPics and see if anyone posts anything congrats on getting a great pin, though.

I pondered it being a cast member pin, but dont they normally backstamp that on the pin? I got it from the store that Shiobhain works at (shes also a member on here) and have messaged her about it, and she said she hadnt heard of any newly upcoming CM pins but shes looking in to it for me too. Thanks for the help so far x

I know nothing, but I would guess it's just the 2012 open edition London pin, to replace the one from last year. Made it into refresher packs, but not for sale yet.
