An interesting tidbit from the Epcot Event:
There were additional pins proposed for the first WDW lanyard series. The prototypes were on the display at the event.
Most of the pins were to be additional characters that fit into the established sub-themes, but some were unique:
I can only imagine what these prototypes might have gone for at auction!
DS#2 DieHardDonald (Josh) took pictures of the prototypes.
Should I add these to Pinpics?
Did anyone else take pictures? A couple of mine are impossible to really see.
