Nice! When did you get those? I didn't see the popcorn bucket or sipped when I was there. Super happy for you (and jealous)!

Absolutely love the villains masks!Not mail, but pins acquired. Just got back from a week at WDW and this is what I got from the trading boards. I was hoping they would release some new HMs while I was there, or there would be more DLR ones showing up, but no luck. I am probably only going to keep about three of these. The rest that aren’t scrap will just go back into my trader bag. But it was still fun to look at the boards and do some trades.
The country pins at the bottom were a very big surprise. Somebody had inherited a collection and donated it to the board at the Beach Club resort.

Nice number of trades, fun! How was the WDW experience overall? I'm sure some of the current negativity is overblown but I'm concerned about our fall trip and what we're hearing about the state of things (crowds, the Genie+ disaster, etc).Not mail, but pins acquired.

We had a fantastic time as always. It was definitely more crowded than we expected but we managed to ride everything we wanted to and only waited on a couple of lines. We did use Genie+ in every park and made strong use of early entry. We also grabbed some individual lightning lanes. So being willing to spend some additional cash definitely helps.Nice number of trades, fun! How was the WDW experience overall?

I second basically everything here. There's a lot of negative jazz right now because it's weirdly hip and trendy to be negative on the internet.We had a fantastic time as always.

I felt that Genie+ worked fine. Just have to strategize a little bit like with old fast pass (try to avoid ones too far off, etc.) The one thing about it that really bothers me a lot though is that you can only use it on each ride once. So even though I could see lightning lanes still available, I couldn’t get them. I don’t understand why, when it was free, I could grab multiples until they ran out. But now that I am paying I can’t.
Regardless, I am sure you are going to have a great time. Let me know if you would like any other specifics.
I agree, I think that one just comes down to Disney wanting to sell Genie+ to more people over all profit wise. I do think it's the biggest mistake they are making. I'd even be happy to pay a bit more for as an "add on" to not be locked to one booking per ride.I felt that Genie+ worked fine.

Did a little Shop Disney purchase for the teapot and Tiny Kingdom box. The rest is a pinpics trade.
Donald and Daisy are trading the duplicate Tiny Kingdom Pirates and Goofy pins if anyone is interested!

I just acquired the 2019 alphabet set also. It is much nicer in person than the pictures show.How is it mid July already? Here are pins I acquired in June.
Right? I saw a deal so hopped on it. More impressed in person.I just acquired the 2019 alphabet set also. It is much nicer in person than the pictures show.
Wow! That's a lot of pins! Nice!I had an amazing May with trips to Aulani, Star Wars Celebration, and Disneyland and bought so many pins, plus all the usual online places.
I found someone to trade for the Scar PALM pin since I missed the initial sale. Another transformation, more cards, and oops Hercules snuck into the villains pic. I think the Maleficent/Aurora artland pin will be for trade.
I went to 1 day of Star Wars Celebration, and it was so much fun! I took a picture with Matt Lanter (voice of Anakin in Clone Wars animated series and in a show I really liked called Timeless) and saw Temuera Morrison (Boba Fett) on the main stage. I bought the Vader jumbo to wear that day; it was from one of the Star Wars Weekends. Other than the alphabet set, I really wanted Grogu and Thrawn, so mission accomplished (although Grogu was sold out by the time I got to the main store so thanks secondary vendor). And here we go with another pin of the month series with the SWGE places to visit.
I only need Drax from the Marvel Kawaii 2nd volume set; found most at SWC. I wasn’t going to collect the hidden mickey/marvel pins, but here we are. Lucky to get good numbers for the Doctor Strange and petals n pals DSSH pins.
It was my 1st time to Aulani, and it was fantastic. This was planned as a relaxing vacation instead of an action one, so stayed at the resort the whole time except for 1 shopping day and went across the street for some food a couple nights. Every day, found chairs facing the ocean and tanned and went in the lazy river. Of course had to get pins to commemorate. They put out a trading board every day at 2 or 3 so was able to get the pins on the right. Also, the CMs laughed at me in the main gift shop since I only wanted the spam musubi and shaved ice wishables and felt every bag to find the right ones.
Another X-Men pin, and it’s part of the pride collection. I like the backer card that goes with all these Os. Had to buy all the rainbow pins.
More WDW50 pins, Rocketeer, Mickey #3, flip flops. I got Flynn lantern, so the rest are for trade. I was able to score the Aladdin fantasy pin.
