I think whomever owns Pinpics just has a license to sell and distribute, as the owner should be ACME galleries (they license many different things such as actual art prints and more).They are created by ACME/HotArt under license by Disney. i think the company that creates them is owned by PinPics.
Thank you for asking this! I was a little confused by the site as well, since it talks about pins being "currency for the game." Also, I see people selling these pins on eBay, while they are still available on the site for less? For instance, Dancing Princesses Merida is $26.60 on the site, LE 300 and still available, but has been sold three times recently on eBay for around $40? What's up with that? Purchasers who are unaware?
Only explanation seems to be purchasers who are unaware.Thank you for asking this! I was a little confused by the site as well, since it talks about pins being "currency for the game."

So I played pinopolis... Once. Didn't care for it. It seemed like modified poker using pins instead of playing cards. I played during their testing phase, so maybe it's more interesting now, but it sucked the fun out of what I love about pin trading... IMO.*** Beware! I am a newbie of pin trading and collecting, so I apologize if this is stupid! ***
I just came across a website called Pinopolis Pin Game. I went on the website and was in love with the many gorgeous pins that they sell (not the game)! Of course, because I am weary of anything that I am not sure of, I stated researching these pins. I went on PinPics and I was able to find a fleat of pins on there, however that does not mean that they are official, right? I keep seeing that the pins are licensed, which is slightly reassuring. I just don't want to get any pins that I shouldn't!
Can someone give me more informaton on these ACME/HotArt Pins? Are they tradable? Are they sought after? Are they good additions if you are just looking to collect pins?
Any and all tips, tricks, and information is appreciated! And again, apologies if this is a stupid question!
