My name is Lisa, and I've been trading since it started in late 1999. Our family used to have annual passes, so we put together a lot of cast lanyard series sets in the early 2000's. I have 3 sets of twins, now grown but still Disney strong. We go at least 2 or 3 times per year. I'm in North Carolina in Surf City, and I've been having fun with pins for 25 years!
 
Oh my, welcome to the forum. Lots of wonderful people here with a lot of pin knowledge. What is/are your favorite characters and/or themes you all collect?
 
Welcome to the forum! :lgm: Sounds like you have an amazing collection. And family!

That's great...it sounds like we have some in common too. I also collect Aristocats, and all Disney Cats, Mary Poppins, Pinocchio, Bambi., all princesses, and still a little Chip and Dale. Also, a lot of pins I like. Have a lot of 'cast lanyards' from the early 2000's. Happy to be here. My twins are adults now, but I have twin girls 32, twin boys 30, and boy/girl twins 27.

I love the Aristocats and Robin Hood because I remember going to the drive in when I was a young kid to watch them.

The Aristocats has always been my favorite Disney movie. :) But I like the cats too. I had to whittle down the cats to a few because
there are so many. I did just break down and trade for a Mochi pin though. He laying on Baymax's head. :)

Hi Lisa! I collect Pinocchio, too! What's your favorite Pinocchio pin?

The most beautiful pin I have of Pinocchio is WDI MOG Pin Cuckoo Clocks Pinocchio Blue Fairy Jiminy...the detail is gorgeous. One that I want is WDI PINOCCHIO BLUE FAIRY FIGARO CLEO JIMINY or Figaro 'Cat Nap'. I'm not sure why all the 'Cat Nap' pins are outrageously expensive, but I'm a big cat fan. We'll see if I can snag some good prices somewhere. What are your favorite Pinocchio pins? I always love finding new ones.

Hi, and thank you for the welcome! Well, I have far too many likes it's dangerous, but I mostly collect Disney cats, Pinocchio (especially Figaro), Castles, Bambi (love Thumper), and princess sets just to name a few. I tend to love sets of pins or series, I do not like holiday or special occasion pins (not sure why, but maybe it removes the Disney for me somehow? Weird, I know). I would love to get my hands on the set of ballerina princesses, but they are just way too expensive.:oops: Pins are so fun because everyone has their own pin personality!😉

All of the ones you mentioned are so cute! I think I'm going to have to look for the 'Walt Disney Family Museum - Blue Fairy'! That is really awesome! Exciting to meet a Pinocchio fan. I also look for a lot of pins from Disneyland Paris. Their pins are really beautiful, detailed, and just always seem to be really attractive and different. I can't get enough of DLP pins!
