My primary collections are Belle, Mulan, Silver Mist, Little Green Men and Star Wars. I had side collections of Rapunzel, Giselle, Incredibles, Up, Brave, Frozen, Snow White, Jasmine, Monster's Inc. and a few others.

Although my Silver Mist collection is quite tiny, maybe it's a "mini" collection.
 
My main collections are UP and Brother Bear.
I also collect Kronk and Charlotte La Bouff pins but there are only a handful of him and one of her.

My side/mini collections...
Roo (from Winnie the Pooh)
Burrito (from Three Caballeros)
Junior the Elephant (from The Jungle Book)
Characters dressed as Sherlock Holmes
Robin Hood (esp. Maid Marian)
Pixar Shorts

I'm the main collector in the family but my hubby and kids love having collections too so I also have side collections (even though my family claims them) of
The Jungle Cruise
Walt Disney
Oswald
Tigger
Ariel
WALL-E
Goofy
Mike Wazowski

We collect pins we love so my "side" collections are ever changing/growing. :)

My main collections are Lion King, Robin Hood, and Felix+Calhoun. I used to count Disney Afternoon in there, but it's fallen to be a secondary collection as I'm not really actively hunting for them anymore.

My other secondary collections are:
~ Daisy (by herself/without other Fab Five, and I'm fairly picky about which pins of hers I like)
~ Clarabelle (by herself/without Horace or other Fab Five; not as picky since there are so few of just her)
~ Paris cast lanyard pins
~ Disneyland 50th/Year of a Million Dreams
~ Brave Little Toaster (I own the one and only BLT pin made ;D)
~ PTDs of characters not in the above categories (Bolt and company, WALL-E & EVE, Mr. Pricklepants to start off Bonnie's toys, Squirt to start off Nemo, and Nani when she arrives in the mail)
~ Lots of random pins that don't fit anywhere else but I like the character or design, or they were a gift


I've also been thinking of starting a pin board and finding a pin I really like of my favorite character from every full-length Disney animated movie. Then I can start to cull the herd of pins I've been saving just because.
 
I think my whole collection is mini collections. There is no way I would be able to afford every pin in the themes I want, so I buy what I like that is available now and I buy older ones I like when I can afford it. I mainly collect Villains and Princesses, particularly Sleeping Beauty, Maleficent, and The Little Mermaid. I also love pins of couples and any pins that I fall in love with from other random movies I grew up with.
