This sounds wonderful, but I’m not much into the pin trading (LOVE Haunted Mansion and the Resorts pins) or Vinylmation collecting. I think the awards is an interesting idea and glad FIgment will represent the Imagination Awards (One Little Spark!). But you think someone, like myself, might be able to enjoy this too?
