Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, has introduced vending machines selling exclusive collectible pins for $18 each, according to a report on Mickey Visit, an independent media brand specializing in Disney theme park news.

Each pin comes inside a ball-shaped capsule, keeping its identity a surprise until the buyer opens it. The designs are not sold in stores.

The collection includes 15 designs featuring Disney characters and attraction figures, including Dumbo, Winnie the Pooh, Simba and the Haunted Mansion's Hatbox Ghost. Most pins have a white marking on the back, while a blue marking identifies a rarer collectible known as a "chaser" pin.

Machines are located at Bing Bong's on Pixar Pier and in San Fransokyo Square at Disney California Adventure, as well as Disney's Pin Traders in Downtown Disney. The installations add another purchasing option for collectors, who also buy pins through shops and online or trade with park employees and other visitors.
