February 2025 - Patch

Search results will now return sets that include pins that match the search terms when searching on your My Collection page or on a pal's public page.

January 2025 - Pin listings updated

PinnyPals has been updated with improved pin listing data.
This makes it easier to find pins, as the list keeps growing.

Each pin page has updated tags. Depending on the pin, this could include the game, series, or company the pin is from, characters depicted, the PAX it was released at, and other themes.
Clicking a tag shows you the all pins associated with it.

You can now search tags to find a pin, instead of the exact name.
Try searching for a game, series, company, or character to find all the related pins. Some tags even have acronyms that you can use (e.g., "SMB" for "Super Mario Brothers").

There have also been updates to pin and set names for consistency and accuracy. A list of the changes can be found here.

While we think these changes make it much easier to find pins, there's always room to improve - and now you can help!
When you're logged in, you can use the new "Improve this listing" button on a pin's page to let us know when details are missing or incorrect.
