New Pin Releases - What do you think?

[figment919]

Seems to be that a lot of the new releases are coming from Loungefly, Boxlunch, Pink al la Mode (PINK), and other sites. While they are pretty nice designs (WAY too many Mystery boxes for my taste), it seems that the PARK releases have dwindled down to almost nothing (here in the USA). The other Disney parks around the world have issued some great stuff but it seems that the USA pins are not being handled by the Parks for the most part.

Also, some great pins from DSSH, MOG, DEC, WDI if you are a CM. In my opinion the stuff that came out at the One Family Pin Event doesn't even compare with some of the other issued pins that have come out recently (look at the PALM Disney Villains stained glass releases).

What do you all think?

I agree that the foreign parks seem to get more and better pin releases than the state-side parks.

Trying to keep up with all the licensed releases is a pain. I'm way behind on a bunch of them, trying to finish mystery sets especially!

I don’t see as much a lack of releases cuz there are a lot of great rack pins available now (character clusters are great!, retro Disney channel pins) but I think the LE and mystery boxes are lacking in design quality for parks and DSSH, conveniently the ones available to the public. WDI is still making great pins dunno about DEC.

The monthly series pin releases are pretty nice (transformations and posters.). I have definitely seen past years with worse monthly series.

Also agree the OE character clusters are a nice series.

The shop Disney store's Mickey main attraction is also very nice.

But do those decent series match the variety and quality of other places? Not really... IMO

Posters still maintaining a frenzy, by 2 hours sellout(due to stores opening times), transformations not so much but still nice pins!
