Expedition Everest - Starbucks Discovery Series - Animal Kingdom

This vibrant pin is part of the popular Starbucks Discovery Series, specifically celebrating Disney's Animal Kingdom at Walt Disney World. The design features the iconic silhouette of the Forbidden Mountain from the Expedition Everest attraction, set against a striking sunset background of warm oranges, pinks, and yellows. The pin includes a dangle element on the left side that clearly displays the Starbucks logo, adding a modern aesthetic to the collectible. On the right, a vertical banner reads 'Disney Animal Kingdom' with a glitter finish that catches the light beautifully. Expedition Everest, which opened in 2006, remains one of the most thrilling coasters in the Disney portfolio, famous for its encounter with the Yeti. As an Open Edition release launched in 2024, this pin serves as a highly accessible piece for fans looking to commemorate their visits to the park. The Starbucks branding elevates its appeal, as these collaborative pins are consistently sought after by both Disney and Starbucks collectors alike. The use of a shield-like backing shape and bold, stylized art makes it a standout addition to any park-themed lanyard. Its combination of a dangle feature and glitter accents provides a premium, dimensional feel that collectors appreciate in contemporary pin releases.
