Hercules - Disney Artist Collection by Jason Peltz

The Hercules - Disney Artist Collection by Jason Peltz pin, released on February 4, 2025, is a captivating Limited Edition (LE) of 5000 that celebrates the iconic hero from Disney's 1997 animated musical fantasy film, *Hercules*. This pin is part of the broader Disney Artist Collection by Jason Peltz, which commemorates the 25th anniversary of the Disney Pin Trading program. The pin features a dimensional Pin on Pin design, showcasing Hercules appearing to muscle his way out of an animation sketch, set against an animator's desk backdrop with additional sketches peeking from a drawer. This artistic presentation highlights Jason Peltz's background as a Disney animator, having contributed to films like *Hercules*, *Mulan*, and *The Princess and the Frog*, before transitioning to product design for Disney Parks. The *Hercules* film, loosely based on Greek mythology, tells the story of Zeus's son as he strives to become a true hero and reclaim his godhood. Collectors value this pin for its moderately limited edition size, the popularity of the Hercules character, and its connection to a beloved Disney Renaissance film. It also appeals to collectors interested in artist-specific series and those celebrating the history of Disney pin trading. The pin was released at multiple locations including Disneyland Resort (DLR), Walt Disney World (WDW), and Disney Store (DS), making it accessible while still maintaining its Limited Edition status.
