This festive Disneyland Resort Limited Edition (LE) pin from 2009 features the beloved chipmunk duo, Chip and Dale, playfully interacting with a large, glitter-filled purple gift box. Chip, identifiable by his black nose and smooth hair, is on the left wearing a red winter hat and scarf with green mittens, while Dale, with his larger red nose and ruffled hair, is on the right, sporting a green winter hat and scarf with red mittens. The gift box itself is adorned with a sparkly yellow bow, adding to the holiday cheer. This particular pin, with an edition size of 1000, was released on November 19, 2009, as part of the highly sought-after "Countdown To Christmas - Advent Calendar Collector’s Set." The complete Advent Calendar set, which included eight pins in total, was a much rarer Limited Edition of 100, with seven of the individual pins being LE 1000 and the completer Tinker Bell pin being LE 100. Chip and Dale, who first appeared as nameless chipmunks in the 1943 short "Private Pluto," became official Disney characters in their 1947 self-titled short "Chip an' Dale." Their mischievous antics, often involving Donald Duck or Pluto, have made them enduring favorites, especially in holiday-themed cartoons like "Toy Tinkers" (1949). The glitter elements on the gift box and their winter attire make this pin a charming and visually appealing addition to any holiday or Chip and Dale collection.
This pin holds significant collectibility due to its Limited Edition size of 1000, making it moderately rare. Its inclusion in the "Countdown To Christmas - Advent Calendar Collector’s Set," which itself was a very limited release of only 100 sets, further enhances its desirability as part of a highly exclusive collection. The enduring popularity of Chip and Dale, coupled with the festive holiday theme and the attractive glitter accents on the gift box and their winter clothing, make this a sought-after piece for collectors.
Chip and Dale first debuted in Disney animation in 1943 in the short film "Private Pluto," and were officially named in 1947. They have been prominent figures in Disney's holiday storytelling for decades, frequently appearing in Christmas-themed shorts. This pin's release in 2009 as part of a Disneyland Resort Advent Calendar set ties into the long-standing tradition of Disney Parks offering special, limited-edition merchandise to celebrate the holiday season, making it a snapshot of Disney's festive offerings from that era.
