Magical Mystery Pins #9 - Elliott

This charming pin features Elliott, the lovable, invisible dragon from the classic 1977 live-action and animated hybrid film 'Pete's Dragon.' Released in January 2016, this design is part of the ninth series of Magical Mystery Pins, which were sold at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort. The pin is designed to look like a vintage metal bottle cap, featuring a bright yellow background that highlights Elliott's signature green scales and tuft of pink hair. As an Open Edition release, this pin was widely available to park guests, making it a popular choice for fans of classic Disney films. The bottle cap style adds a tactile, nostalgic aesthetic that differentiates it from standard cloisonné pins. Elliott remains a beloved character among collectors due to his unique role in Disney history and his heartwarming personality. This pin serves as a fantastic tribute to the original 1977 film, capturing the whimsical art style of the character perfectly. Because it is an Open Edition, it is generally more accessible to new collectors while still holding significant appeal for those who focus on dragon characters or vintage film memorabilia.
