I'm still fairly new to fantasy pins, but I find myself be drawn to them more and more. I've found some small shops on etsy that feature Porgs on various Disney attractions, in other characters' costumes, etc., and I LOVE them. I love porgs, I love mashups, and the pins really appeal to my sense of whimsy. Thanks for your great tutorial, Emily! I learned several things I didn't know about fantasy pins!
@MagicallyEmily5 жыл бұрын
I've noticed porgs are very popular with fantasy pins, they make great mashups!

Yes! The anonymity of some fantasy pin creators always confused me? Is it due to that copyright issue, or that they want to create a high exclusivity for their pins? Idk! In my head I’m like, don’t you want to... sell? your pins? that you make? Haha
@MagicallyEmily5 жыл бұрын
I think it's a combination of both. If they're not known, they can't be turned in to Disney, but they also get to create a 'hype' and demand over their pins. I much prefer when fantasy pins are easy to buy!

I love fantasy pins! I recently found out about them this year, so I only have a collection of 4 😂❤️ a great thing about them is they are usually very detail and are rarely faked - I’ve seen it happen before, but not often. Fantasy pins are a lot more “special” in a way since they only have LE of 50 or lower usually

Once I learned about fantasy pins I was hooked. I thought it was a great way to get pins like the WDI pins I wanted at a lower cost. Like the profile pins you mentioned. I would search for profiles of characters I collected and even though they were more expensive than Disney pins, they where way cheaper than what the WDI’s or DSSF limited pins where being sold for on the second market. However then I ran into what you already mentioned about some being so expensive and exclusive clubs. I had the thought “why not create more so we all can have some? Isn’t that why we make fantasy pins? Because we want pins we can’t normally have or pins Disney doesn’t make?” So I have been disappointed in that aspect. So there are a few creators I love and I will get their fantasy pins. You already mentioned fantasy pins by Madison. So I’m sure you’re aware of her emperors new groove profiles. I got in on that collection and I love it. She is making a Chica one and I thought of you! I love ENG too and covet your lama potions pin 😂. To bad I’m late to the game and they are all sold out. Can’t wait to see what’s up your sleeve

Thank you so much for this video! There's not many resources or easily accessible information on the fantasy pin market, and finding sites that sell them (outside of Etsy) seems to be a shot in the dark or pure luck. Aside from the ones you listed, and those mentioned in the comments, have you found any other sites to get them since making this video? So far I've looked at: Enchanted thoughts club Wish upon a Star fantasy pins Fandom flair Just peachyy grape soda Unicorn crafts art Oh yeah apparel Attractioneering Emc fantasy pins Castle babe Castles and confetti El blackbat Mouse pin trading post

Why doesn't Disney stop these Fantasy pins? They are kind of fake pins (not officially made by Disney) and thry are earning money of Disney's property and characters.
@MagicallyEmily5 жыл бұрын
Disney doesn't seem to actively seek out people breaking copyright, they usually wait until someone gets reported too them. I guess it's too much for them to police themselves
