Happy New Year!! What better way to begin the new year than with a preview of some of the great series we have coming in 2011?

First we have a special look at the new Disney Trading Night pins that will be released throughout 2011. We’re trying something different this year with a collection we’ve titled “Keep on Tradin.” The series will be sold in mystery pouches at the Disney Trading Night events. The designs feature the new Disney Pin Trading logo and will include characters and icons, such as Mickey Mouse below:

 

You may notice that there will be three variations on each pin, a full color, a black and white, and a golden version. In many ways this series is a spinoff of the popular PT52 collection from last year. Just like that collection, the designs for the pins will not be revealed on the pouches themselves but will be uncovered by our pin collectors. Speaking of PT52, fans of that series will want to check out a similar collection we have coming out this year, the Pin Trading Stamp Collection:

 

These pins starring the Disney characters on stamps include several interesting features. Collectors should notice the icons in the corner of the pins which indicate a mini-series within the complete collection. There will also be chaser pins that have a different coloring than the more common pins shown above. Finally, once one completes a mini-series or the entire collection a final secret will be revealed. Good luck!

Our final preview is a look at some of the pins in the 2011 Hidden Mickey Collections for Disneyland® Resort and Walt Disney World® Resort.

 

Don’t head into the Disney Parks for these pins just yet as they are currently scheduled to make their debut in late January. Look for a list of the entire collections in the near future, which we’re sure we’ll make all of our Hidden Mickey collectors happy.
