My Beauty & the Beast Winter pins from the UK Disney Store finally arrived. I got two of them so I could have one as a trader. I got one from an active forum member here (not mentioning names but he can say something if he wants), the other from a pre-sale on eBay, and I think they are both authentic (I'm confident that the one I got from the forum member is ). I'm happy with both pins, which overall are quite pretty, but there are a few variations on these pins that I thought members would be interested in.
EDIT: The skin tone is the same on both pins; the sunlight washed the left-hand pin out.
Sorry the picture isn't clearer. Along with the usual small dips that I guess are becoming the norm for Disney pins, on the left, Beast's nose matches the darker grey from his horns, and on the right, the lighter grey. On the left, Mrs. Potts is clearly missing some blue details in her bonnet/lid and her base. It's not easy to see here, but the lines on the left are more delicate on the enchanted objects, and on the right, more delicate on Beast and Belle's faces.
One question: Both pins have the same sku number on the card as the pin, but on one of the cards there is the normal price sticker, and on the one I got from eBay there is one of those blank stickers that is meant to block a price scanner. Does Disney use those or was that added by the seller?
