Pin Collections / Collectors

Here’s my Disney pin collection so far… definitely not all of it! This is what I have so far after collecting for less than two years and it’s never going to stop expanding either, despite the wife's push back on the hobby. I still have my Disney Cruise Line, Disneyland, and holiday special pins (and more) all wrapped up in those iconic Disney plastic bags, lol, just waiting to be added to a new board when I get one. I’ve also kept all the original backer cards and have them neatly organized in ziplock bags… which my wife says is a little crazy and way too excessive, but I like to think it’s just part of being a collector. What does your collection look like? I’d love to see everyone else’s passion for pin collecting!
P.S. Not trading or selling. Just want to see other peoples enthusiasm for the hobby.

We collect hhi, ccv/wl, and buttons from our first trips for each family member to the resort/parks.
I have had luck on ebay with older pins.
I was given a special pin board for fathers day one year.

My first DVC trip, my son suggested we do a mystery box of Villians. Well, the rest became history. I've collected villians, Mary Poppins, resorts I visit, Muppets, the festivals, and just random pins. It's addictive.
I'll have to get a picture of my pins to post.

Very Cool. I collect sorcerer Mickey, DVC, Resort, and park icon pins. My wife collects Pooh and my 6-year-old collects Marie. My boys are young but i've been gathering Donald and Goofy pins for them as I come across them. As a family, we love collecting the Wave A and Wave B mystery sets. We completed our 2025 sets and have a great jump on 2026 from our February visit. It's been a great (and expensive) hobby for us as a family!

Any chance you use a pin trading app to organize your collections? When I go to Epcot, some of the traders will look at their phone to determine if it's a good trade or not. I usually don't care, if I want a pin I'll make a trade even if it's not in my favor. It's suppose to be about fun right?

Most of the services are paid from my understanding. I hear good things about pin pics.

I have a bunch that I collect.. my main ones are dumbo, Percy, WALL-E, Donald Duck, the Original Trilogy Star Wars, and the muppets. I'll also buy pins from every new resort I stay or event I attend. Always happy to mail trade if anyone is interested. I'm currently focusing on building a pug army
