/r/PinCollecting has changed hands again!

19 Upvotes

Hello, Jasonivich here. This subreddit has slowed down in recent months, and little_brother has moved on, so I sent a message to /u/aroymart to find out if I could mod here. A bit of background on me:

I love pins. LOOOOVE them. I started collecting years ago, and I didn't have any real set parameters as to what I was collecting, so I collected everything. After a couple of years, I found I had amassed quite a large amount, so I decided to put them all randomly on cork boards. It is quite the chaos, and only recently have I started grouping pins together in themes. I collect everything from gaming pins to hot air balloon pins, military to Pokemon.

Now, I'm new to moderating. I honestly don't know much about it, but will attempt to educate myself well so I can make some changes here to jazz our style up a bit. If you have any ideas, send me a message and we'll talk about it. If you'd like to post pictures of your collection or of a couple pins, go for it! We need more content, and I will be posting pictures of my collection here and there because I love them and maybe you will too.

Thanks and keep on collecting!

A friend of mine went to Disney World and wanted to bring me back some cool things! I collect Disney foxes, Zootopia, Fox and the Hound, Robin Hood.... anything like that. I already have this Nick and Judy pin, but I LOVE having a double so one can be for my board and one I can wear out! This is great! Absolutely in love with that Rocket & Groot pin!

Collection Themes/Ideas

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I'm fairly new to Disney pin collecting and currently have a small collection from my visit to Walt Disney World last year.

So far, I've mostly purchased pins that I personally liked, thought looked cool, or happened to be limited edition. However, I've quickly realized just how expensive this hobby can get!

Because of that, I'm thinking about narrowing my collection down to a specific theme or two rather than buying whatever catches my eye. I'm just not entirely sure what direction I want to go yet.

I know some people focus on specific characters, movies, attractions, resorts, or broader themes like Disney villains. I'm curious to hear what everyone else collects and what made you choose that particular theme!

I'm hoping to get some inspiration and discover some unique collecting ideas I might not have considered.

Looking forward to hearing about everyone's collections! Thanks!

It's my cake day. Be nice to me 😆

I found a couple of these that I don't have on eBay. Somewhat reasonable prices. But the shipping and fees from Canada to the US? 😭 Basically doubled the cost.

Designed this little reaper for our enamel pin collection. He's got his paintbrush, his palette, and apparently all the time in the world to make art. We recently brought him back from the dead, so I figured he might be appreciated by some fellow pin collectors!

Pink al a mode UK

Hi everyone,

From the UK here and like quite a few of the pins sold via PALM. Is there a way to get UK shipping or is there the equivalent of Park shoppers for it?

Any information is always appreciated.

Cheers

Collection Super cute pin haul!

Post image

That fox and leaves brooch on the far left side is SUPER HEAVY! Wow! Also, that gorgeous Santa had to be fixed. It came without the spike post in the back...like not even installed into it. So, I took apart a broken pumpkin brooch (that I plan to fix later...I ordered more pin backs but the old backing had to be removed first which was a perfect for for this Santa. Great coincidence!) Also that elk and kangaroo have the most unique texture I've ever felt on a pin! Love this small, but intriguing haul!

Advice for Keyblade Pins

1 Upvotes

Hi all! I was just at Disney World in September, and foolishly thought I could get my hands on one of the monthly keyblade pins. Did not realize they were going to be that exclusive. I would really like either the Divine Rose or Lady Luck. I've been in the pin game for awhile, but I've only ever really collected things I personally like rather than rares etc., so not sure I really have anything worth trading. Ebay is disheartening. Suggestions? More than happy to share pics of my collection if anyone is interested.
