Hello everyone! I’m Roxy from Sweden, it’s nice to meet you all!

I've been collecting Disney pins and stuff from Disney from n on since 2011, but took a long break from Disney collecting, and now I'm slowly getting back into the hobby again. ☺️ My current focus is on Kingdom Hearts, especially the Disney Parks exclusive Keyblade pins, as well as anything I adore, to be fair!

I also have a soft spot for LE pins, like the Heroines profile pins, my faves from that series are Rapunzel and Ariel but tbh they are all so cute and I want them all, lmao! And of course, that enormous D23 2026 Princess pin caught my eye too, it’s absolutely gorgeous and ridiculously pricey! 😂💕

Looking forward to discovering new pins and connecting with fellow collectors again!

Happy collecting! 🏰✨

Hello and welcome!

Now is either a great or a terrible time to be a Kingdom Hearts collector, depending on how you see it! Lots of new pins are coming out for you, but they all seem to be instantly very expensive as opposed to previously when there were few pins coming out but they were more under the radar so the prices were more reasonable.

Thank you so much! 😄 And oh gosh yee, you’re absolutely right about that! 😂 It really does seem like both a great and terrible time for my wallet, to get back into Kingdom Hearts pins lmao

I’ve been looking at them since the first realese of the kingdom key pin, unfortunately I didn’t have the savings for it and today it’s so darn expensive on the second hand market, like eBay etc, and seeing all these new KH pin releases, and I’m like… how am I supposed to keep up?! 😂 The prices definitely caught me off guard too, especially for the keyblade exclusive pins.

But honestly, I’m really excited to be getting back into collecting again, so I guess I picked an interesting time to return! 💕

Welcome to the forums!!! Sweden is so beautiful, I learned about it through an old member Elin @Snoffsan who doesn’t frequent DPF as much anymore. Hope you enjoy your time on DPF

Thank you so much! 😄 And aww, that’s so sweet! I actually know Elin, aka Snoffsan, and I’ve been friends with her here on the forums for quite some time! It’s awesome that you’ve talked with her too!

I’m glad she gave Sweden such a good reputation, haha!! It really is a beautiful country, so I’ll happily agree with you on that! 🫶🏻

I’m really happy to be back on DPF and looking forward to getting to know more fellow collectors again. Thank you again! 💕✨

Welcome back to the forum!
My friends husband is originally from Sweden and my company is based there so I also agree that Sweden has a great reputation in my books.

Is there a big pin trading community there? Or do you need to travel to parks to do most of your trading? I’ve wondered what it’s like to live so far from a park and trade pins, I am lucky enough to live close to the original park so it’s fairly easy to find others in the hobby.

Hii! Thank you! 😄💕 And that’s so cool that your company is based in Sweden! Sweden really does have a pretty good reputation apparently! 🫶🏻😌

As for pin trading, it’s unfortunately not nearly as big here as it is in the US, so we don’t really have the same kind of trading community or regular pin trading events. 🥲 Since we’re so far from the parks, a lot of it is done online instead, mostly through Facebook groups and different trusted buy/sell/trade communities.

I’ve actually never done an actual pin trade myself yet! 😂 So I’ve mostly been collecting and buying pins so far. I’m definitely interested in trying trading though sometime! I just try to be careful about which groups and people online, since you obviously don’t want to get scammed. 😅

It must be so nice living close to the original park though! I imagine that makes finding other collectors and trading in person so much easier. 🥰
