We have not seen any new updates for Disney Pins (What's Happin in - Since December 8, 2011), the Vinylmation.Com site is not being updated as in the past and the Disney Store (Disney Shopping.com site) has not had any really good pin releases or sales for quite a while now.

Not sure what they are thinking, maybe there is not enough CM's to keep everything updated or they have a new group of CM's that are not familiar with the updates????? Steven Miller left to do the Disney Blog/Reports, and he was very limited with CM's when he was updating the sites. Now that he has moved to his new position, not sure if Disney ever hired anyone to fill in those spots, but I know I am missing all the updates and information we used to get in the past?

Anyone else hear anything? We had some real positive feelings about 2012 after our event in September, hoping they start posting the information on their boards now that the holidays are over We really felt that there was alot to look forward to this year The pins we saw on the Previews were very promising!!!!!

It has been pretty quiet recently. I miss the blog updates! And the Disney store releases haven't been very exciting, at lest in my opinion. I wasn't too big of a fan of the 110th collection. I miss staying up till midnight on sunday to see what was coming out. I havent done that in a long time! Please Disney, let's get back on track! If you need help with the blog, I'll do it! (*cough*hire me*cough*)
 
They do not even really update the upcoming releases anymore. Not to mention the fact that their search feature has not worked in months, maybe even a year or more. LAZY.
 
Looky what I found. Hopefully we get an update soon:

[h=2]brian on December 27th, 2011 at 11:32 am[/h] Stephen,
Sorry to go OT on you, but we’re planning a trip with the kids for early 2012 and want to have good odds on seeing 2012 Hidden Mickey pins…last year they came out on our last day in the parks(Jan 28th, IIRC), and I see a PTN event planned for Jan 27th, 2012…can you give us any advice on timing our trip? We were thinking of waiting until February to increase odds on the 2012s being out, but would love to make another PTN too since that was huge fun for us and the kids…If we started on the 27th, would our odds be good on seeing 2012s?
Brian





[h=2]Steven Miller on December 27th, 2011 at 2:27 pm[/h] @Brian – Funny you should ask that question … I’m currently writing an article about the 2012 Hidden Mickey Pins for Disneyland and Walt Disney World. I know they are coming in early 2012 but I’m trying to get a more confirmed date. Similar to last year’s collection, there will be two different waves (early-2012 and mid-2012). More to come.
 
Hi Jace!!!!!

Happy New Year

Hope you are doing awesome PM us if you are coming to visit....

Also, thanks Brian for the update!!!

It is truly disappointing that so many new items we hear about don't even have pictures since no one seems to know what the pins look like or when they might come out or even what they might be. It's sad, sad, sad that Disney seems to have completely forgotten us.
