Disneyana: Guide to Pin Trading

The next generation of pin collecting has begun at Walt Disney World Resort with the introduction of Disney's Magical Moments pins as a part of the resort's yearlong 100 Years of Magic celebration.

The twinkling, interactive pins are designed to bring a sprinkle of pixie dust to guests. Each pin is about an inch and a half in length and includes 10 to 20 sparkling lights. As guests make their way throughout the Walt Disney World theme parks and resort areas, their pins will magically react to various events and encounters. From interaction with all of Walt Disney World Resort's spectacular parades to special moments in favorite attractions, Disney's Magical Moments pins allow guests to become part of the Disney show -- literally.

Disney's Magical Moments pins interact with such enchanting experiences as:

• Mickey's triumphant victory over the forces of evil in the "Fantasmic!" nighttime, laser light show at the Disney-MGM Studios.
• Practical Pig's transformation of his float's lights from sparkling white to an array of colors in the "SpectroMagic" nighttime parade at the Magic Kingdom.
• When Hopper from "A Bug's Life" sends spiders down on unsuspecting guests of the "It's Tough to be a Bug" 3-D show at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

"Guests will discover Disney magic in ways they never thought possible with Disney's Magical Moments pins," said Roger Holzberg, senior show producer for Walt Disney Imagineering. "There is one pin representing each of Walt Disney World's four theme parks and one for the 100 Years of Magic celebration overall. Each pin is designed to create the same magical moments; but there are more than 75 different variations of experience. So there will always be something new to uncover."
