Overnight Line Forms in Disney Springs Garage for Kingdom Hearts Pin Drop

A viral photo captures how scarce merchandise and reseller pressure push collectors to camp out for limited pins.

Overview

  • A Reddit photo shows guests sitting in lawn chairs and camping overnight inside the Lime Garage at Disney Springs to be first for a limited pin release.
  • Commenters said the queue was for Kingdom Hearts pins, which have become monthly, high-demand drops that sell out quickly.
  • Some Kingdom Hearts fans in the thread said official merchandise is hard to find and cited a claim that Square Enix lost North American licensing, a point not independently verified in the coverage.
  • Witnesses blamed resellers for the rush by describing bulk buying and even someone pulling a box of items from a cast member, leaving typical shoppers with few options.
  • Community guidance urged visitors to check Reddit and social media for scheduled drops before heading to Disney Springs, and no official response from Disney was reported.
