Thoughts on Pixar Party Event

Hi everyone!

it has been a long time since I've been on here. I couldn't attend the event this year due to work as luck would have it. I am curious what people thought this year since last years genearation d was on the lame side. I'm hearing there was no pin talk or announcement of an event for next year??? Just wondering!

some lines were long 2 hrs and another was 11/2 hrs some were short not much on the boards some AP's and PP's but over all we had a good time chating and trading in the lines

HI, there will be an event next year 2017, theme is "Love is an Adventure" but no set date yet.

i see images foe some of these pins they looked great i guess i wil never own one

I have nothing to compare it to, as this was my first event, but I thought it was good. We went in expecting to stand in really long lines, but it really depended on which pin boards you went to. The Wall-E line was always really long (the pin boards were much bigger so there was more to choose from), but we went through Ratatouille and Cars as fast as 20 min. We didn't get any PP, but a bunch of AP. The crowd was great. Everyone is so nice. We weren't originally planning on attending another event, but I think we will now. It's so addicting!

Honestly it was our least fav wdw pin event (the DLR nightmare event was our least fav ever) by far.

The lines for the 3 boards was ridiculous- the adjustment from 2 'games' to almost all games wasn't appreciated. Esp when the CMs on the boards version of '1 min' was more like 1.5 or 2...

Usually during breakfast we'd get through 3-5 lines- had we not been in the first 50 people in then the 2nd time wouldn't have happened.

The number of LE pins on the boards was far less than usual (think we pulled maybe 4-6 LEs between us total) yes we got some nice AP rack pins and a few Hong Kong pins but they need to add either new release mickeys, the event pins or something to the boards to make the 2 hr lines 'worth it'

the character greets to me was a miss- I paid $$$ to trade pins not meet characters..

the 'Pit' needs to get rules on space as it was really annoying to have groups of 1-3 take up 10-20 feet of space then disappear- so others couldn't set up and trade.

The 'gift pins' to me sucked. Of all the Pixar movies you put the crappy monsters u 2nd tier characters on the pin? the fort set made sense & the jack jack was tolerable..
