How has your collection changed?
I began with Haunted Mansion and wanted to be a completist until I discovered PinPics and that dream dashed away really quick. Then I started a Jiminy Cricket collection. After a bit of a lull in collecting/trading I moved away from HM and Jiminy.

Now I'm just trying to finish off the O'Pin House Keys from Haunted Mansion (see Most Wanted) and have slowly begun gathering Lonesome Ghosts.

After my first Pin Trading Night at Disneyland, I got hooked on Rabbits! Thought it was apropos since I was born in the Year of the Rabbit! The people I met also turned me onto the Pin Trader Delight's at DSF. I live close by and they make good traders, plus I get to treat myself to ice cream as a reward for getting the pin.

Former:
- Haunted Mansion
- Jiminy Cricket

Current:
- Roger Rabbit, Oswald, and March Hare
- Lonesome Ghosts
- DSF PTD
- Hidden Mickey (if I like the set)
 
For many years, I put a focus on collecting Nightmare Before Christmas, Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, and random Disneyland pins. I've come to the point where I've stopped focusing on Nightmare and Pirates of the Caribbean so much. Actually, I haven't added a new Nightmare pin to my collection in quite some time. My focus has been aiming towards Disneyland poster pins, some hidden mickeys, and random DSF/WDI pins (though Haunted Mansion is still my #1 collection).
 
I used to just collect pins of attractions and movies that my wife and I enjoyed, sadly there are too many of them so I'm just primarily collecting Main Street Pins with a focus on cast members/scoop/dabber dans...
 
I used to need every Alice pin and every pin with Ariel & Eric together. Now I only collect the ones I like and think are well done.
