Hidden Mickey 2018 DLR - Silhouettes - Ariel

This pin features a stylized silhouette of Ariel from the 1989 Disney classic, The Little Mermaid, facing her loyal sidekick, Flounder. The design is part of the 2018 Hidden Mickey series released at the Disneyland Resort. The pin displays a vibrant green enamel fill with black metal silhouettes, highlighting the clean, minimalist aesthetic of the Silhouette sub-set. A small, iconic Mickey Mouse head icon is prominently featured between the two characters, which is a signature element of the Hidden Mickey pin collecting program. As an Open Edition pin, it was primarily distributed through Cast Member pin trading boards and lanyards at the Disneyland Resort, making it a sought-after piece for completionists. The Little Mermaid remains one of the most popular films from the Disney Renaissance era, driving high demand for Ariel-themed merchandise among collectors. The pin includes two small holes at the top and bottom, which are characteristic of this specific series design, allowing it to be linked or displayed in unique ways. Its simple yet elegant design captures the heartwarming bond between Ariel and Flounder, making it a staple for any Princess or sidekick-themed collection. Because these pins were originally found on Cast Member boards, finding them in pristine condition is highly valued by serious collectors.
