Ok, I've not been around on here much so perhaps this has already been mentioned (in which case I apologise, my search function won't work properly) but I wanted to post up in case it hadn't.

I went into my local Disney Store yesterday (White Rose Centre in Leeds if you're local) and they had a board up on the counter with pins on it. There were two groups, "normal" ones priced at £3 and £5 and "limited editions" priced at £5 and £7.

I spoke to the lady working on the till as I bought one (couldn't resist Wall-E :rotfl2: ) and she said they were testing the UK market with the pins to see if they took off. We were both complaining a bit as they'll be such a temptation if they become available over here!!

I'm not sure if this is just in selected/large stores but it's gotta be worth looking out for if you're near a Disney Store this weekend.

We got one of the limited edition ones this morning - it is Band Leader Mickey. Apparently there are only a few limited edition ones per store, and they are always released on a Saturday morning.

We picked up some pins in the Oxford Street and Covent Garden stores in London yesturday. Oxford Street had run out of few of the Exclusive pins but the Covent Garden Strore had a full range in.

I got the Band Mickey one yesterday also, along with the Toy Story pin.

I asked at the counter, there are in-store ones that are limited and on-line ones also which will be exclusive. I beleive there will only be 500 on-line pins made each time they're released.

I'd keep checking both if you're interested :)

I bought some one line and they are are really nice. If you look on the Disney store website it shows you what LE ones are going to be on sale later this month on line and in stores.
