Need help from someone going to DLR 3-22

I would love to help you, but all I'm going to be giving all I get to a trader out here named Elvis. He is always helping me and wants all we can get. Sorry.
 
With mystery releases like this, all it *usually* takes to get a complete set is one shoe (or sleeve). For those who don't know, a shoe (or sleeve) is 10 boxes that are wrapped in plastic (or in a cardboard box). The thing is that you must make sure that you purchase your 10 boxes in the packaging in which they were shipped - otherwise it'll amount to pulling 10 random boxes off the racks; you might get what you want or you might not.

I've purchased shoes/sleeves before and I've never not gotten at least one complete set of what I've wanted.
 
I would love to help you, if you or someone could help me... I am new to this site and not sure of how transactions between members work. I go to DL a few times a week and I also love these mystery train sets... I intend on getting at
least one or two full sets of cars... So I guess my question is how does all this work...???
 
dancecats - Which Disney pin outlet will most likely cooperate with a request to buy a "sleeve" of ten boxes?

Has any figured out the design of the third train car down on the left column - the green half circle car?

I've been able to buy a sleeve at a time at both Frontierland Trading Post and the Pin Station in Epcot. Once they know I am buying a ton of pins they are usually cool opening up the stock drawer and helping me out. Sometimes it's better to get a stocker to help than one of the people working the registers. The folks on the registers are sometimes too busy to stop and pull inventory like that.
 
Looks like its Bugs Life in a Watermelon! YUMM!
Yep, that's right! It was on the pin preview boards at the DLR PTN last month.

I'm excited for a new "Bug's Life" pin, but I don't collect trains/train cars. I'm still deciding if I'm going to need this one.

Are train pin sets usually the same size? In other words, would this train car work next to train cars from other sets?
