Tsum Tsum Beauty and the Beast Mystery Set - Maurice

This charming pin features Maurice, the eccentric and devoted inventor from Disney's 1991 animated classic, Beauty and the Beast, reimagined in the adorable Tsum Tsum art style. As part of the Beauty and the Beast Mystery Set released in 2017, this pin captures Maurice’s signature bald head, bushy dark eyebrows, and white mustache, all rendered in the minimalist, stackable design that defined the Tsum Tsum craze. The Tsum Tsum series became a massive phenomenon for Disney, blending Japanese character design with popular film icons, making these mystery sets highly sought after by completionists. This Open Edition pin was released at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort, offering fans a fun way to celebrate a beloved supporting character who is often overlooked in traditional pin lineups. Because it was part of a mystery set, acquiring specific characters like Maurice required trading or purchasing individual pins from the secondary market. The pin features a clean, screen-printed aesthetic typical of the Tsum Tsum line, which emphasizes simple shapes and bright, recognizable colors. Collectors value this piece for its whimsical departure from standard character portrait pins, serving as a cute tribute to Belle’s father. Its status as an Open Edition release makes it more accessible to newer collectors, though finding specific characters in good condition remains a key goal for those building complete sets.
