I check that one un-named auction site for Dumbo items daily and a new Timothy Mouse HM popped up. I also saw it was just listed on PinPics but didn't have a picture. On the auction site it says the pin is #2 of 5. It looks like at least one of the new sets will be themed around the new Dumbo Fantasyland area which is perfectly fine for a Dumbo fan like myself. Anyone else see any new HM's lately?
 
On pinpics theres is also info for a new sleeping set and a 'stars' set. If these are correct there's at least 16 new pins annonced. (5 for one set, 10 for another and 1 set still undetermined.)
 
I thought the new ones on pinpics said "unauthorized." for some reason. see? Whats going on here?

It looks like the Pinocchio Star and Sleeping Donald ones are listed as Unauthorized but the Timothy one seems legit so far.
 
Maybe they are slowly being released. I can't wait to find out what other Hidden Mickey pins are going to be in this new wave.
 
Cars Land is chuck-full-o lanyards!! Yay! I saw so many CM's and managers with lanyards on last night. I'm happy, looks like they talked some of the newer staff into wearing them. I saw tons of the first wave of HM's and 2011's too. Grabbed an extra Ariel and Chip & Dale T-shirt for trade. Saw a WDW continent pin too that I got. Good trading night last night. Got some AP RSR's pins from Off the Page, got some HM's off CM lanyards, can traded at LGM for a few pins.
 
I'd love a Dumbo HM set! But I found that listing on Ebay for the Timothy HM, and the silver hidden mickey on the bottom of the pin looks a bit funny to me. It's not the best quality picture though, so it could just be that. Cute design though, I'd love to get the set if it's legit!

Usually when people are finding the same pin over and over again it is not legit. If the pins were actually released others in the series would be out there. This is what happened with the Genie T-Shirt and the Mickey Portrait.
 
Agree with Karkura on this...makes me wary. But yeah, can someone post pictures?

Also, if anyone finds these pins on CM lanyards, can they please ask the CM if they got them from another trader, or were they stocked up that morning (backstage)? That would help determine authenticity if the CM got them backstage, this early in the release stage.
