Over the weekend I got to visit PinHQ in Florida and man was there alot to look at! As I continue to build my collection I have enjoyed the pin folio binders that they created. It’s truly amazing how you can easily spot other traders in parks because of the binders! The visit to the store was fun and I walked away with a few things to add to my collection! Have you been to the store? Comment below!

I did some trivia over the parks this weekend and I was very excited that I knew some of them! With that being said there are some tough questions that they ask though! Good luck and just have fun with it!

This was so interesting! I was reading some more about this droid and it is cool! This is now listed in the database (and I've added the points to your account): Thanks for sharing!

Very excited! Thank you

This set id\s so cute.

OMG I am SO happy you figured it out and wow what a great little blast from the past and neat pin to have gotten your hands on!

Awesome pin! Do you happen to know if this was sold as part of a series or collection?

Evening All Just updating. Still ISO all 6 of the pins. Open to trade or purchase Thanks Joh

Yay! Ah I love the thrill of the pin hunt!!!

@grottopins - Now that is some great detecting there! Totally spot-on match! We will get this added to the database as a prototype, along with the info about what it is!

My dole whip collection was scattered around my general food display board. Now I want to do one split down the middle with dole whip and orange bird/citrus treats!

Wow thank you all for the help! My current guess is that I believe it may be a real deep cut from the WDI research and development team. They have a page on their website talking about a prototype droid they made named "Jake" (J4-K3) that was made to roam around Tomorrowland before Star Wars Galaxy's Edge was built. https://www.ocregister.com/2017/10/10/a-droid-named-jake-roams-disneyland-will-this-and-other-droids-follow-you-around-in-star-wars-land/ What a fun treasure hunt this has been! I've been on this hunt for 2 YEARS!!! Anyone have any intel on this droid or if there are other references to him around the parks?

I definitely need to narrow down my collection, I’m having a hard time though. I love Minnie’s main attractions 2020 because I was there when the parks closed for Covid, I love ESPN Sports because my daughter cheers so we go every year, and my brother went when I was younger for soccer, I love helping people get their favorites though so it’s so much fun to trade when you can really help someone get what they want

I need your help! I am looking for the final two Muppets Park Days Pins that I am missing, and I am hoping to trade for them. Here's what I am missing: - DLR Mystery Miss Piggy Redd - DLR Kermit Jumbo Here's what I have for trade: - Misc. carded pins and Hidden Disneys - DEC Micky Pin Jumbo (for the DLR Kermit Jumbo) I will upload more carded pin traders on this thread! Happy to do multiples as well. Thanks for looking, and happy trading!

Love the sport theme. God knows I don’t need another collection. Haha

I like this idea, I’ve separated mine into different themes as well and my vintage mickeys, Minnie’s, Holidy Donald complete set and Fantasia complete set are in a separate little pin binder. If I had room for Lade and the tramp bone puzzle on the mini board I’d put it in there too. I have my muppets Christmas Carol advent calendar displayed on a cork board but I really want the new Kermit cork board. The rest I might try to group in chronological order by character so when I get new ones I don’t need to rearrange! Thank you for your reply!

I got the dated ones a while back right after I started collecting but I think I might add those to my traders list. I like your idea of grouping them in their sets when the set is complete, that makes sense to me (I need the boards to make sense in my mind lol) so I will group the characters together until I complete the collection (if that ever happens). I also might add a bunch to my traders list to help complete some sets. Thank you for your reply!!

Yay!! I can’t wait to get it!! I’ve been trading like mad to get enough feedbacks!

Most of my pins are divided into character collections and displayed on pages or on banners/bulletin boards. I only collect dated pins of events or holidays that happened while I was in one of the parks, and those are displayed chronologically. Hidden Disney sets that are complete go into a separate pin bag and are displayed chronologically as well. Any Hidden Disney pins that aren't part of a complete set are with their character collection.

I organize mine pins by theme. So I have all my patriotic pins together, Buzz Lightyear together, Walt pins in three groupings, Partners, Storytellers, and the rest, and all my Coronado Springs pin together.

I’m having a hard time deciding on an organization system. I collect all sports of pins. I have a bunch from the Countdown to the Millenium and the 100 years of dreams set so I’m good there. Then I have a bunch of vintage pins, pins that remind me of my past experiences from Disney, Disney Princess pins, some grand opening and anniversary pins, and some pins I actually bought from different trips. I didn’t start collecting until March of 2025, and been 3 times since then and also on a cruise in addition to one of the trips, so the pins I got on each trip I want to keep separate on lanyards, but should I organize all the anniversary pins, holiday pins, vintage pins, nostalgia pins? Or organize them by character, or by set (Rapunzel and Cinderella from the Paris Princess animators set)? I’m making this way harder than it needs to be , I know. I’m not creative enough to frame them yet and I’m also broke from all the trips to Disney in the past year any ideas or pictures would be helpful. Thank you!

Yeah!!!!!!!! Cannot wait to receive it!

Yippie!! Super excited to place it next to my 2025 trusted trader pin!
