We have looked at the new holiday pin (PinPics # 32679: DLR - Rosh Hashanah 2004 (Chip & Dale) ). This pin is, in itself, a major error.
The Jewish calendar is much older than the Gregorian, which is used by most people. Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year's Day. The New Year (which begins at sundown tonight) is 5765 and not 2004.
This is similar to what the Disney Store did a few years ago, when they first came out with a Hannukah Menorah. The box, as well as the markings on the bottom, showed this Jewish item as part of the "Christmas Collection". Actually, once they caught it they had the stores destroy the boxes, and only sold the Menorahs in the styrofoam packing, but did nothing about the bottom markings.
I wonder what they will do wrong next.
