So cool! I am so going to get them next time I go!

 

[ABigBrassBand]

Oh. My. God. Those are amazing!

World Showcase one is very classy, but nothing can get me to waste money on pins. Rather spend that money on other souvenirs and memories. :shrug:

Same. I'll find a pin I like and trade for it, but I would rather just trade my full lanyard when I see good pins rather than paying 60$ or so for 6 more pins to add to a collection that I don't think should grow more than I can carry. Plus, it's fun to have new pins each time you leave, instead of having just more of them to carry :lol:

However, there are the rare times when I just have to have that one pin, so I go buy it...would rather spend money on retro EPCOT shirts TBH.

$65?!!!

inorite? There's no way this is worth almost as much as D23 membership, but I guess thats in the eye of the beholder.

Isn't all pin buying a big money grab for self inflated junk?

Production is pennies on these things.

Vinalmation too.

Supply and Demand

If people wouldn't willingly pay these prices, the price would drop!

I Like em. Especially the Nod to The Land's pin shape as a Resemblance to the old Kraft CM Pin...

These look pretty cool. I've never been a fan of pins, though. They seem like such a gimmick, and $65 for 6 pins doesn't really change my opinion of that now.

 

[RSoxNo1]

The 21 pin 15th anniversary set that featured 9 of the circular logos, 11 country flags and the Epcot 15th anniversary pin regularly sells for $275+ on eBay. $65 is probably not going to dissuade everyone.

Pity it releases a week after I leave.

Ah well, shouldn't really spend that much anyway... :lookaroun

 

[FLGal]

New here. :wave:
I won't even tell you how many pins I have.
$65 is a lot. But it is the LE500 that drives that.
I would like to think these pins are a decent size, rather than a mini pin size.
I like Epcot logo/center pins. But can't say there is anything to entice me to buy these. Although I do not buy pins like I use to. (Thank goodness. :brick

 

[FutureWorld1982]

I love all of them, and I'm a HUGE Epcot fan, but i agree that $65 is a bit too much for me...

 

[DisneyPrincess5]

Wow those are great! I love the JII one!!

 

[roaddogg6420]

$65 is not really that much. It is less then 11 a pin. So if someone wants to pick me up a set, that would be great.

 

[Testtrack321]

$65?!!!

I didn't even see the price before! That's a ton, even if you are getting 6 pins (10.83 per pin minus tax). And I only like one or two of them.

Again, rather spend the money on a nice meal or some drinks before Illuminations than on pins.

 

[Imagineer6]

OMG. These are definitely something I am getting on my next trip. Probably 2. 1 for me and 1 for ebay.

I'll save my money for when they start making retro plastic figures of animatronics or props from the rides, some cool little thing I can have on display besides pins.
