Pins will be limited to an edition size of 1500 each and will be offered from $10.50 to $12.50 each (limit two pins, per style, per Guest).

The "Disney" Dictionary
Pooh is saying that it is time to get the "Disney" Dictionary off of the shelf!! The "Disney" Dictionary is the book that has the proper spelling of all Disney Characters and terms!!!
There is the question as to the correct spelling of "Carousel" on this pin representing King Arthur's Carrousel. The proper spelling of King Arthur's Carrousel, is with 2 "r"s!!

This pin may be a prototype, as it has yet to be released. We will have to wait and see the actual pin.
The Disney Store Japan released the Toy Story Train Set....and "Jesse" should be spelled "Jessie"!!
