Pins that form together the Sleeping Beauty Castle

We're huge fans of the classic attraction posters that have been a part of Disneyland® history. This beautiful open edition framed set includes pins that form together like a puzzle the iconic Sleeping Beauty Castle. Disneyland® Park historians will recognize the many attraction posters used to create the artwork which include Autopia Attraction, Dumbo the Flying Elephant Attraction, Space Mountain Attraction, and The Haunted Mansion® Attraction, to name a few. We counted 23 different posters, how many can you find? Look for this framed set in June at Disneyland® Park.

Grand Prix Raceway Attraction

For those who are collecting the Walt Disney World® 40th Anniversary pin-of-the-month series, here is a look at the pin that will be released in June:


The pin features a design inspired by the original Grand Prix Raceway Attraction and Goofy holding a checkered flag.

Some things you will see at The Florida Project event

This is the first painted figurine from the event. We aren't 100-percent happy with it and have a few changes but it is great to see some color on the figurine.

It's Mickey Mouse! 

Ah, the Orange Bird. 

Here is a concept for a multi-pin boxed set that will feature images of Walt Disney World Resort. It was designed to look like a slide carousel (does anyone remember those?)



Lastly, here is a look at a four pin set that is mounted on what appears to be a "Confidential" folder. The "FPO" in the artwork means "For Placement Only." This acronym is used so the manufacturer can ensure that the pins line up correctly on each item.




There are a few more items but we are waiting on final approvals before we can share.

Next week, we will take a look at some items from Sci-Fi Academy. For starters, here is an image of Walt Disney from the incredible awesome Mars & Beyond set.
