Hello,
I've been going to WDW since I was a little girl. The past 2 or 3 years I would pick up a pin here and there, but didn't start getting into it fully until I saw people opening the mystery packs on Tik Tok. I love them. The first set I really started with was the Pixie Plush pins. I'm waiting to get my Sebastian pin from the last Trade Arcade at Pin and Pop which means I only have Pascal left before having a complete set!!
Even more special, my daughter would "collect" my duplicates and now she has a pin collection of her very own. Santa even brought her some special princess pins!!
I was excited when I found Pin and Pop and now even more excited to find this forum.
My bucket list is to see every Disney castle and have a pin from every Disney park. So far I have Disney World and Disneyland under my belt and Paris planned for Oct 2025!

Happy Pinning!
Colleen
 
Welcome to the crazy world of pin trading. I love mystery packs, I always buy them in the parks because I can't
resist.
 
So glad you found us! Mystery sets are a weakness for me, too. Some of them I MUST complete, while others I just hunt the characters that fall into larger collections.
I totally understand what you mean. Right now the Disney Dogs is one I want to finish, while the munchlings I'm just happy as I get them. No rushing them! And the little Marvel ones, I forget what they are called, I am just collecting the Guardians of the Galaxy ones.

Thanks for the welcome!!
 
Hi Colleen,

Nice to meet you. I’m in Texas and can’t wait for our next trip either. Super happy to hear you’ve enjoyed trading on PinandPop and found your way here. I’ve got the last Pixel Plush you need for trade and have a table at each event. Happy to trade with you to complete your set at the next event if you’d like!

Mystery packs are one of the biggest addictions you can have in the pin world! Anytime you’d like to talk pins just reach - I’m on Instagram too (same name)!
 
This is why I'm so excited I found it here! I never knew that was even an option!
I love the hidden mickey also. I have 5 hidden mickey traders right now. Not sure if any spark any joy for you!

You have a couple I am interested in and I think I have some you are interested in. I am momin.ator on Pin and Pop.
 
Oh that's exciting! I'm not quite sure how to search for a user on P&P. Do you?
Not sure if there’s an easier way but what I do is go to my “trades won” page and click on someone who has a public profile. From there it will take you to that persons profile page and in the url change out which trader’s name you’d like to look at. I think pretty much all of the DPF people have the same name on PinandPop.

Ex: dznycrzyfmly's Pin Collector Profile on PIN & POP!
 
Oh my gosh that's brilliant!
 
You have such a lovely collection. You were right about having some I love. Certainly let me know if you'd like to make some trades.
