Hey there!


My name is Ricky, and I have been collecting Disney pins on and off since 1999. I have a nice little collection, but just recently got back into the hobby. I was an attractions cast member at the Magic Kingdom for six years, and had a lot of fun trading pins and stories with the guest. Right now, I just have fun collecting pins from the attractions I used to work at ( Tomorrowland / Fantasyland )


I drive up to Disney about once every other month, and add a few more pins to my collection. Maybe one of these days I'll get around to finding a cool way to display my collection, or perhaps I can get a few ideas from the photos you guys share.


I look forward to reading your posts, and learning of what others like to collect. Best of luck to you all in your pin searches.


Ricky

Welcome to the forum :) I think its awesome to have pin veterans like you on here! I'm sure you'll love it on here- the people are great and super friendly.
 
Hello Ricky from a close to be former CM like yourself. I worked primarily in MK for Main Street Ops(branched out to the other parks) so like to collect to pins that remind me of my time there too.
 
Hiya, welcome from the UK :lgm:
Jealous that you was a cast member! Ive only been to Disney 3 times so it must be awesome to beable to go once a month!
 
Thank you for all the nice greetings! I have definitely gotten back into the purchasing of pins. I am just now ordering four of the 110th legacy collection pins, and when I'm up at WDW in three weeks, I will add some more of the 40th Anniversary pins along with any nice annual pass holder pins that may be available. Our hobby is a lot of fun, but can sure get a little expensive. :)
