Released as a Limited Release, this pin was available at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort, making it highly accessible to fans of the character at the time. Mickey Mouse, the iconic mascot of The Walt Disney Company, first appeared in Steamboat Willie in 1928, and this series was designed to celebrate his legacy throughout his 90th anniversary year. The glitter elements on the pin add a premium, textured feel that appeals to collectors who enjoy varied finishes. The Monthly Mickey Mouse Memories series was a highly sought-after collection in 2018, with each month featuring a different design theme, making the full set a major milestone for completist collectors. This specific pin stands out due to its departure from classic animation styles in favor of a modern, technological theme.
