Really quiet month for me. I love the idea of the advent calendar, & if the pins were just the cookies I would be thrilled, but that each one is on a sheet pan makes the designs to repetative for me & they'll be really hard to display.
(This will be a really good thing if the bags for the next wave of Hidden Mickeys end up releasing this month.)

dude... wow. this is fascinating. i bet magic key discounts don't apply to these, right? if so, this is very well-disguised and well-designed greed because i still want to try one... they are so good at extracting wealth from us.For those who have been around long enough to remember the Mickey's Mystery Machine pins from 2007.... and for those that only know the vending machines at the Disney Pin Celebration the last few years...

Bradford Exchange has new Disney x NFL pins. Remember to keep your expectations in check, since these are soft enamel, not hard enamel like Park and other pins.
Yep! The $18 is a lot. I bet these are bigger than the original vending machine pins. However, those were $5 and people still thought they were too expensive! Lot of people waited to get theirs through trading. Adjusting for inflation, should have a floor of $8. So I could see given all the *waves hands* $10, $12 even maybe $15. But they went too far, and now I don't care.

Sadly I need the Queen of Hearts so I know they're going to sucker me into buying at least one to have it for trade as most people will likely want to trade within the set. 🙁
More information about the new Vending Machine pins via Facebook comments. On the back of the pin there is a tear shaped diamond. Blue = Chaser. So far the pins found with the blue diamond and therefore chasers: Dumbo, Hat Box Ghost, Winnie the Pooh and the IASW Platypus.
Also, the chasers have a silver back and the regular pins have a black back.

regarding the pin vending machines … Well honestly for me, as someone who gets to the park maybe once a year if it’s possible (multi trip years are surely memorable 🤩) , I kind of just love new experiences with the collectibles I like. Pins fit that category. So I would probably enjoy seeing these the next trip 🥰 We had a lot of fun with the keys which were ridiculously pricey but really fun to enjoy as a family. Could they charge less? Totally. But if I thought about how much Disney is making, I would just not go and sometimes that’s out of my hands anyway 😂
Yes the designs need to pull me in! 😁 vending machines themed to the lands like the collectible coins do would be horribly awesome 😂
