There are times their releases are hideously ugly and totally off spec. So that is not the first.

I know it's not the first, but this is by far one of the worst.

They should hire the people who used to make the pins for Disney auctions, those pins were so much better!

We are very scholarly when we discuss pins, aren't we?

Re: Why disneyshopping.com needs a better pin designer

DS has gotten so bad with pin designs. This is not the only pin forum to be discussing this issue. It has been going on for quite some time now. And I agree, they should bring back the DA pin designers, they were always awesome! DS makes characters fot a theme. They do not allow a theme to take hold of characters(if that makes sense). I hope their designs get better. I haven't bought a pin from them in atleast a year, the designs are not captivating enough for me to order them.

Re: Why disneyshopping.com needs a better pin designer

They could definitely use some better designers. Occasionally there are some real nice pins, but often they are bland or worse, awful. When there are artists on deviantart who can draw the Disney characters better than actual Disney employees you have a problem.

Re: Why disneyshopping.com needs a better pin designer

It says right in the description of the pin that it is Walt Disney:

Mickey and Walt have the perfect Father's Day gift tied up. This elegant limited edition pin comes attached to a special Father's Day card and envelope for a lasting reminder of a proud day.
