Vinylmations

[grainsmommy]

I was thinking of getting a couple of these for each of my kids a couple of these to trade while we are at the park in Dec. My thought is, if we are just going to trade them anyway, wouldn't getting the clearanced Zooper Hero ones on the Disney Store site for 2.99 be the best idea? Or is there somewhere to get them cheaper?

TIA!

That's what I did! I bought two for each kid so that I don't get hounded to buy one full price. That way if they trade for something they really like, then they still have one more trader.

Thank you! This is what I was thinking too. At 2 per kid that's only $18, which is kinda like buy 2, get 4 free. Do they generally have good ones to trade??

If your driving through, the St Augustine Disney Outlet has them frequently for 5 for $10.

Awesome! Would this be any outlet or just there? We are actually driving in, from Kansas, in Dec.

Occasionally you will find a good one in a trade but now that all of those Zooper ones and High School ones are clearanced, supposedly that is all that is in the trade boxes! I wish Disney would stop making those non disney vinylmations! There will be a blind box with 15 or so spots and then a clear one with 3 that you can see. You get up to two choices and don't have to trade(can vary by person) but at DStreet you have to trade.

I suppose if we can't trade for some they really
Like we could just purchase one each after we leave the park. They're still little (9, 5 & 4) so they are relatively easy to please.

All that is in the boxes is zoopers, high school and those awful wrestlers. Plus lots of the mixed up robots and sports team ones.

It is really hard to find anything else these days.

That was our experience in August also...

Hmm, seems like everyone had the same idea! Has anyone traded pins with kids those ages? I feel like they are too young (the little ones) to trade pins, maybe they will poke or
Get
Lost?

My kids have been trading pins since they were toddlers. We held the pins for them when they were really but they have been carrying hip packs for years and array their own in them.

My adult son and I trade vinylmations and this is what we do since we do find that most of the boxes have the same, same vinylmations. One of us goes and if we get one we don't like, the other person takes it and then trades that one. We started this last year when all we got was the same one over and over again.

Sometimes the cm is nice and will ask us what we are looking for and will hint on what to pick.
