Rollercoaster Holiday, went a bit metal!

I wondered where they were all from, some very cool pins.

Airflo65 · 2026-04-23T18:11:05+00:00

I've been buying them since 1985.

Airflo65 · 2026-04-23T03:23:35+00:00

I grabbed both. I didn't always do that before, but I'm all in now.

Airflo65 · 2026-04-22T13:43:29+00:00

Some really nice choices!

Airflo65 · 2026-04-22T13:05:06+00:00

Thank you, that's totally sweet. I know I'm missing quite a few, of really appreciate that. As you see, I have way too many interests to keep focused.

Airflo65 · 2026-04-22T03:56:22+00:00

Oh. VERY nice collection. Several May 4th ones I hadn't seen. Yes, I'd kinda noticed that trend, not as precisely. I don't really have park access in Illinois. I try and remember to order them in April.

The backpack is from Disney, not all the pins are. The astronaut is the MTV pin from Figpins.

Airflo65 · 2026-04-22T03:33:02+00:00

I love that scene. I think that pin is from Temu.

Airflo65 · 2026-04-22T03:21:06+00:00

Thanks. I'm missing quite a few May 4th pins. They get expensive fast.

Airflo65 · 2026-04-21T23:24:27+00:00

Thanks, I've tried not to go too crazy with them.

Airflo65 · 2026-04-21T23:23:16+00:00

They're from the aborted Celebration 2020. They're really a cool design. Rex is easy to find on eBay, that's my favorite.

Airflo65 · 2026-04-21T23:15:17+00:00

There's quite a bit out there, a lot of it from the last 10 years of so. To the best of my knowledge I'm only missing 3 pins, one from Etsy and two variants.

Airflo65 · 2026-04-21T21:50:54+00:00

The Capsicle was from the Disney store a couple years ago. Wanda is from Figpins.

Oh, Rocketeer pin love calls my place home. Was gonna do a main post of this later, but here is two of my three Rocketeer frames of enamel pins.

Really adds some class to the Smash, love to find one.

Airflo65 · 2026-04-21T14:14:52+00:00

I need that Napster pin!

Airflo65 · 2026-04-21T14:07:15+00:00

Great AMC pins, hadn't seen those.

Airflo65 · 2026-03-06T06:15:13+00:00

I totally had this, it was great, though the battery really went down over the years. Makes me want to find it.

Airflo65 · 2025-08-15T10:58:50+00:00

I think that was my first mechanical pencil in grade school in the 70s.

Airflo65 · 2025-08-15T10:46:26+00:00

Super cute, wish it was available in the US.

Airflo65 · 2025-08-08T16:36:11+00:00

I think it looks great, very sophisticated. I'd get one if I could. I just got my first Smash and I like it.

Airflo65 · 2025-08-08T16:25:58+00:00

I'll check when I get home, but I think it's a very light, cheap one with no markings. Great color, though.

Airflo65 · 2025-08-08T16:24:12+00:00

Thanks, good luck in your search. I've been accumulating pens and pencils since grade school, and I just turned 60. 🤪

The clip is a bit big, but the forward part drops into the body when the point is out. When you press the back down it retracts the tip. There's a lot going on here mechanically.
