The min pins are just great - very detailed, and a good size. These will be
hot trading items, I'm sure! The Lenticular Pins are better than I expected.
They were not square, as depicted in the brochure., and they are mounted in a
nice silver tone frame. The only downside to them is that we learned they will
be made available at Disneyland as an open stock pin within the next month. The
min pins are stamped with "Limited Edition" "Event Exclusive" "October 26,
2000" on the back, but for some reason the Lenticular Pins were not made a
limited edition. I know more than a few people were unhappy with that
announcement. No matter what the edition size, they are great looking min pins. Here
are the photos of each min pin in the "Good" and "Bad" pose. (How can you tell which
is which!)
There are virtually endless numbers of these, many of which are not official.
It is impossible to tell for sure exactly which ones are authentic. But as a
general rule, the more simple the button, the better the chances it is real.
These were used a lot for old 1970s Genesis min pins. The simple GENESIS min pins are anybody's guess.
